14 halfbacks in 8 years- PJ and Tim Smith to battle it out

[Utey]

Thats what I reckon and hope happens. I pray to god Smith gets that 7 jumper and lives up to expectations.

who would be your five-eight? Morris?

 

[Utey]

I hope Perenara gets a shottttt. But in reality I think Morris as Riddell will be the hooker with Marsh the replacement.

 

[Stagger eel]

I'm a bit different to you guys I would have.

6 Morris
7 Marsh
9 Riddell
14 Mateo

Idealy, I would like Smith, Green and Peranara to atleast spend a few months in Prems, however if their form can't be ignored I'll bite the bullet.

 

[Utey]

I would have these:
6 Morris
7 Smith
9 Riddell
14 Marsh

OR

6 Perenara
7 Smith
9 Riddell
14 Marsh

The 2nd later in the season. Morris would be in the team somewhere one would think.

 

[Agent Mulder]

I cant see Marsh always starting off the bench.
Isn't that the reason he left Parramatta in the 1st place?

 

[Twizzle]

Having Mateo on the bench can be a good move, as he can replace one of the backs, or forwards

I hope he gets a go at 5/8 at some stage.

 

[Utey]

Mateo could maybe take Widders spot. :?

 

[eelsta]

Mateo could maybe take Widders spot. :?

:shock: :shock:

 

[Stagger eel]

Mateo could maybe take Widders spot. :?

unless you have Deano starting??

no! no!no! no! no! no! no! no! no! no! no! no! no!

capish????? ;-)

 

[Utey]

I Knowwww dont murder me. I think Widders is great. But offseason is a big problem for him and his weight does rise. I think his great but Smith has no problem dropping guys with those type of problems.

 

[fish eel]

I'm with eelavation

6. Morris
7. Marsh
14. Mateo

at least for the start of the season anyways

 

[Hellsy]

PJ may have resided himself to strating off the bench due to his injury.
Jess and I saw him in NZ in July and he was still having trouble turning his head he had to move his whole body. He was unsure of his playing career at the point. I know he has been given clearance to play now but surely he is not going to play a full 80 for awhile.

 

[Pazza]

Having experianced players like Morris, Riddell and Marsh setting up plays wil really help take the pressure off T Smith.

 

[bartman]

PJ is coming back from looooong injury. Bench is realistic for start of season.

Brian's pick Round 1:
6. Wagon
7. Morris (will Brian think T Smith ready for starting 1sts?)
9. Riddell
14. Marsh

Look for Smith, Perenara and Mateo to come into the halves/five-eighth mix later in the year, when Marsh fit for 7, and Morris 14, Wags 13.

 

[True EEL]

funny how people say you can't believe things written in the paper.....

when Witt said it, yet something written from BS can be taken as gospel......some people are either easily satisfied or easily led i guess?????

just seems a neat way out for BS..........again.......

 

[fish eel]

Or a neat way out for witt?

depends whose version you wanna buy!

14 halfbacks in 8 years

:shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

Is this really true ???

I know you guys have had quite a large turnover of players over the years, but
I didn't realise that you had gone through quite that many half combinations.

Would that be some sort of "unwanted of course" record ?

No wonder your team hasn't been able to perform with any consistency.
Really it's a wonder that your guys have managed to do as well as they have in
the last few years.

And no.......I'm not bagging out your team.........just asking a question 'tis all.

 

[True EEL]

well its easy to see whose version most people are buying and on those stats BS would be a rich man........
