When Naden was in under 20s he played fullback he always looked a good player but I thought he was a little bit lazy not involving himself enough in the game similar to Robert Jennings. I think the penny has
dropped and he now looks to get more involved. Will Ivan give him a go at fullback?
I was under the impression that there was a stupid off field incident which was why he got dropped. I'm sure somebody more knowledgeable will comment.

Comment on your video. You and I would have been in the same English Class, pretty poor. Didn't have a full stop and you didn't take a breath. But I slowed down the video.

Yeah I didn't realise till after that I was talking fast. To me I seemed normal at the time but I guess being a bit worked up went into my voice when I recorded.

Not a chance. Maybe wing.

Dean Pay is an average unproven coach... but also thought he was good enough to be fullback for his club. That makes multiple coaches who DID think he was good enough too.
When players start demanding what position they'll play it seldom ends well.

There’s talk the Tigers have signed Latrell for $1.3m, but take the figure with a grain of salt.

He’ll obviously be playing fullback, though. Be interesting to see how he goes.

At least they’ve got madge to whip him into shape.

Latrell with Madge is a scary thought because he'll be forced to get fit and play hard.

Elliot was great at identifying and blooding talented young juniors (Particularly outside backs) and generally gave them a loose leash. He could also coach attack fairly well.

However he was not tactically a good coach, could not coaches halves the 'spine' to save his life and his overall squad selection and balance was shocking. How someone could persist with Purtell for anymore than a few games is beyond me.

He also could not coach defence to save himself.

Yeah that single tactic of bomb and hope was electrifying
