Tyson Gamble to debut Sunday

[Vic Mackey]

Report from NRL.com

 

[Perth Tiger]

Might as well see what the kid has while he is under contract I guess

 

[Vic Mackey]

I’m excited to see this if true. Plenty of raw talent there and he’s a good size for a half. Runs more then anything which is what you want in a young half.

My guess is he’ll play off the bench, replace the hooker and push Reynolds into hooker when he comes on.

 

[Das Hassler]

It will be interesting to see how he handles NRL....wish him well for his first game in the big show

 

[Tiger05]

Good luck to him.

I hope you are right about him coming off the bench. Too big an ask for him to start and I think I read that he would start on Twitter last night.

I’ve been waiting all year for this to happen. Strong kid with a bit of footwork at the line, I reckon he’ll have a good career in 1sts. Interesting how we use him though

 

[Vic Mackey]

Now reported he’ll start at 6 with Reynolds at 9

Surprising move but obviously an attacking one

Hope he plays his natural game and doesn’t stay in his shell

 

[Tiger05]

Interesting keeping Reynolds at 9. It's a pathway for Benji to slot back in. I reckon Benji has been great but at the same time he has made too many mistakes and personally I'd be looking to use him less.

 

[kneegrow]

Sounds like Cleary has a plan to just go all guns blazing and blow Raiders off the park

A safer Gamble (excuse the pun) would’ve been to save him until the tits game the week after

 

[Das Hassler]

My guess is this game with Gamble at 6 and Reynolds at 9 will make the decision for Ivan re Farah and perhaps the timing of this move is to make that decision this werkend ....it's in Reynolds hands

 

[TheDefinitionOfMadness]

f**k it. Let's see how gamble goes. Put him in the 6 and let him play all game. I'm not a fan of easing players in. Pick them, play them, see how they go

You just never know what he's got until you give him a chance. With pressure sometimes you get diamonds

 

[Das Hassler]

Looking forward to seeing Garner given a go sometime as well...very impressed with him

 

[kneegrow]

Looking forward to seeing Garner given a go sometime as well...very impressed with him

Garner and Gamble two most impressive players in reserves for mine

 

[Perth Tiger]

Looks decent after the first half. Could be a potential utility for next year given his size

 

[BuffaloRules]

Meh..

 

[Das Hassler]

Back downstairs i'd imagine......assuming Reynolds is out for a few weeks again with the hammie and no benj yet, with Mbye here i'd like to see Thompson at 6. ...at least he'd threaten

 

[Fordy20]

Bring Tui into 5/8

 

[Marshall_magic]

Tough game for him to debut in. Hard to really pass judgement on the kid, he wasn't great out there but there were a lot of blokes who stunk up the joint. Would like to see a little more of him before writing him off.

 

[BuffaloRules]

Apparently Reynolds is back for the next game in two weeks...

Gamble is young so not completely writing him off but I have seen a few games of ISP this year and didn’t really think he was anything special..
