Blooding players

Ramien reminds me a little of Justin Hodges

I don't know Ramien, but he doesn't seem like a merkin?

 

[Snoop Shark]

So many conservatives in here.

Ramien as expected carved up and to be quite honest I haven't seen any of our centres play that well in attack all year.

The old "he isn't ready" myth was well and truly put to rest. The fact that saying has already cost us some handy backs really gets me pissed off.

Sure he played against Newcastle but he did what he did.

Well done Jess

Thats right can only play what is in front of you, be interesting to see how he goes in HC this weekend, now played a game in FG

He still brought people through the Shark's gates and was a drawcard.In this day and age getting people through the gates and someone who brings crowds to their feet ,is important.

I understand that, I loved Preston.
Point is though we didn't "blood" him (in first grade), he had already played 14 first grade games for Gold Coast before he got here.

 

[webShark]

And didn't we play him on the wing in the WCC?

We did. I was there. Wigan scored 3 tries down his side and targetted him.

Ruined our chance.
Got a lot to prove to me he has the goods.

 

[Defer to the coifed]

And didn't we play him on the wing in the WCC?

Yes & he actually was probably our best over there in our backs. he got dusted a couple of times in D, but overall, we were hopeless over there.
he also had a crack in the 9's & obviously the pick of all our U20's as he was taken up to NSW cup early in the year to keep him in the first grade squad.

 

[Weaponhead]

Damien looks a strong unit. He showed good instincts to position himself 8thor the Gallen offload, decent acceleration and a good sterp to score.

In 1 game he is only 1 try less than Bird for the season.

 

[King Ben]

We did. I was there.

Me too. Please don't remind me.

 

[sandshark]

Didn't watch the Knights game but Ramien went good? Did he replace Capewell or something?

Wish Ramien received a few matches earlier in the season.

 

[coolumsharkie]

Ramien replaced Bird Capewell shifted out to cover Wade

Yes, he scored a try that almost all our normal backs (#'s 2-7) wouldn't score 99% of the time, as they don't have the explosive power and speed to do it.

I would love to see him named at right centre this week, with Bird on the bench.

Capewell also played better as an edge running second-rower. Pushes Boogs back into the middle, and makes Heighno well and truly expendable...

He just might get another crack if that is the case.

nope. will be 18 rest of year unless a fringe gets busted again.

That's my point webby, he's not a winger. Look how he went when played in his natural position. Pretty good for an nrl debut I thought.

 

[southland]

Stick Dugan on the wing just to make sure he has the right attitude Although we have some decent 20's wingers coming through as well...

 

[Quigs]

I think it must be about our clubs turn to "discover" the next young superstar. It's been awhile now.

Feki would be would be looking over his shoulder this off season. Tuilagi and Katoa are both ready to go. As a matter of fact I'm hearing a non Sydney club has already made enquiries about Tuilagi

With Beale going to the warriors that opens a wing spot.

Does Dugan play left or right centre? I'd be concerned if I was leutele.
Might end up being Ramien and Dugan in the centres and two young blokes on the wings

 

[Defer to the coifed]

going to be a new look back line next year. Exciting times

I think Loots has one centre spot sewn up tbh (either side). Can't see Flanno replacing him with a young guy, unless it's through injury or suspension... or a worse and less likely reason of Loots actually landing a gig in Brisbane or the Goldy.
