    The Replacement Gallen

    A more underrated player does not exist. He has toiled away for years without recognition and is only beginning to be noticed on the back of some spectacular play for Penrith. This year is averages 130m a game, 25 tackles and he misses less than a tackle per game. On top of that, he hits...

    The Replacement Gallen

    Times are desperate for New South Wales. The loss of Hayne and Gallen deprives NSW of their two most experienced players. More than that, NSW’s record without Gallen and Hayne is atrocious. Since Hayne’s debut, NSW has gone 0-3 in games without Hayne and lost by a culmulative score of...

    I think so. A lot of his really poor performances at Origin through 2008-2010 came when he was pushing wider of the ruck. I don't really like his work on the fringes at the Sharks either, it makes him more error prone and most importantly negates his strengths as a hard-working middle third...

    Origin 2013 NSW side

    :lol: A very poor understanding of the game is demonstrated by the need to support your argument with excerpts from the Daily Telegraph. I've had this argument multiple times before and Morris was culpable in both of Boyd's tries in the first game. I've even been through this debate in this...

    I don't see how putting Gallen on the fringes is experimenting. People have already tried that a number of times and it hasn't worked. His strength are his hit-ups, ruck defence and offloads and it makes him ideal as a tight, middle third forward with a huge workrate. But he isn't a ball-player...

    :p Fittler also claimed that Hayne was more deserving of the Australian five-eight spot ahead of Thurston. Those two specialise in making idiotic statements that are detatched from reality. I think most sensible people (and Daley too) appreciate that Bird is an excellent second rower but a poor...

    Bird isn't going to be in the halves. Even Daley isn't that stupid.

    What did you think of Parker's play in Game 3 last year? For the Broncos he plays as a third front rower but it is worth remembering that he started his career playing out on the fringes. Moving tighter to the ruck is a development he has made over the years and it is a role he continues to...

    Yep, he bundled Inglis into touch once and everybody has been fawning over him since. He didn't defend well against Inglis otherwise. Yep, two bad misreads that resulted directly in tries.

    Playing Gallen on the fringes is an awful move IMO. I hope Sheens realises that and plays him through the middle third. Gallen can manage it to a decent standard in the NRL but not at representative level.

    He has for the first 4 rounds. That doesn't explain his play in 2012 though. Hmm, Watmough is a better ball runner but the difference isn't that great. And tbh the difference between their defence is greater than the difference in attack. Parker is a significantly better defender, far more...

    You mean falling for Inglis as a decoy runner twice in Game 1?

    Nah, it doesn't matter who you are or what language you speak, a workhorse is someone who goes hard and gets through a lot of work. That should translate into more runs, more tackles etc. I don't disagree with Jackson being a nitty gritty player but I find it bizarre that you rate Jackson for...

    Want to try and expand on that? If it is as clear as day then it shouldn't be too hard to explain why they are clearly superior players. I don't think any of those players are superior to Parker. Class is your overall ability and the best indication of that is your long-term form (ie. over...

    Boo hoo. The whole "my opinion, your opinion" is such a cop out. Forums are about discussion, if you don't like people criticising your opinion then you'd be better off just tape-recording your thoughts and listening to them by yourself. Your justifications for Jackson are odd to say the...
