Match Discussion: Round 23 vs Wests Tigers @ Campbelltown Stadium

[Old dog]

IMO you slot Best straight into his preferred position at right centre. In the past you'd 'ease' rookies in on the wing but I'm not sure that does them any favours these days with what is required of wingers in terms of kick returns, defusing kicks, etc

Think he plays left centre

Sorry you're correct meant to say left centre, which then means straight swap

 

[Yosh]

Let's say Bradman plays well and keep his spot. What to do with Hunt then? Hunt looks a better left centre than winger. Try playing Hunt at right centre?

 

[Old dog]

Might be why Hunt hasn’t been signed yet

Pretty excited to see Best get a run.. The kid is massive for an 18 year old

Surely they need to turn in Tina Turners Simply the Best no?

When he scores a try?

 

[alexwilliams_66692007]

Mann drops out of the side, Glasby comes onto the bench

Brown doesn’t rate Levi an 80min player, no backup hooker in 17 but two at 18 and 19, interesting

 

[alexwilliams_66692007]

Wouldn't mind Randall getting a run. Please no Buhrer..

Surely one drops of the bench and either Buhrer or Randall comes onto the bench? Don't know if we can win a game with Levi playing 80 mins.

 

[Old dog]

Any player is capable of 80mins but not at total intensity, Levi can play 80 but his zip will diminish towards end of each half like most players in most positions. It’s a matter of is his last 10-15 of each half better than replacement. I think we put to much emphasis on playing the 80 or not, at hooker you need someone to cover him due to injury as well as fatigue. You can cover other positions with fwd playing centre, wing playing f/b but 9 is a specialist position. If a player goes out assuming he is playing for 80mins then he paces himself, goes flat out when opportunity presents itself, gulps in the big ones when opportunity presents itself and looks to others to cover when need arises, it is a team game, all 17.

Panthers and Broncos losses have favoured us.
We need the Sharks to lose and for us to win this and every other game. Another Broncos loss will help us out.

 

[Old dog]

Winning our three is all that matters, if happens think we will make it.

Fire up lads!! Best to get a double on debut

 

[Old dog]

Big day for him, wish him well, as long as he plays good and we win anything more is a bonus
