2nd Row for Vidot

[Steelman]

Good to see coach Mary has moved 108 kg Vidot into the 2nd row for the cutters game today. Will get plenty of tackling practice and will probably be his permanent position in the future.

 

[Minh]

This would be his ideal position he's a very powerful runner and this would suit him so long as he can defend.

 

[BennyV]

Thompson, Frizz, deBelin, Vidot...may not be the biggest and scariest pack next year, but there's plenty of punch and aggression there

There's no shortage of second rowers, we have a shortage of powerful centres. Why not there?

 

[RedVee]

Could be to get him used to an increased work rate, then use him as a benche to over 2nd row, centre, wing, FB.

I agree. That's where his potential should be further developed. I have a very high regard for Daniel Vidot's future. I think this year he is showing the makings of being a super damaging Footballer. His Timing is getting better - builds his runs, excellent drive. aggression and some mongrel, which we have been lacking this yr.

I hope the Coaching staff believe in him.

I think his passing skills and footwork is insufficient for a centre. I think this kind of thing can't be taught. I hope he can make a good backrower because doubtful about centres and no place for him on the wing for the Dragons.

Have to agree with u mate probly doesnt have the required skill to play center on a fulltime basis plus he is a bit suspect in defense. Back up center at best also wing, going to second row adds another string to his bow. He is on contract for another year so i guess the dragons are going to try and get more use out of his giant frame.

Centres
Beale, Farrel, Chase Stanley, Green, Raciman and possibly J Morris.

Raciman gets my vote.

I have said for over a year now, Vidot would make a good backrow forward. All he needs to do is spend some time making the necessary adjustments with the Cutters. He needs to improve his defence, handling and off-loading skills. It would also help he could develop a step before the line.

I think his one-on-one defence is fine but his reads are pretty bad. Defending in the middle is much easier to read.

Raciman gets my vote.

Mine too but Beale doesn't. Don't see where he can play if Dugan stays.

 

[Drain the Dragon]

Raciman? And Pottor as coach?

 

[st.phil]

Beale will play centre Fiery...not real tough to work out

Let's be honest here Vidot is not the most intelligent footballer who reads the game well in both attack and defense. If he had a good footy brain the guy would already be playing rep footy with the strength and power he possesses. He is a player that does not inspire confidence and if I was a team mate I would be holding my breath when the next unforced error will come. that's why second row is a good option just barge and run.

I understand that but I don't think he will do well at centre. I hope I'm wrong. I'd prefer they release him and go after Folau.

Problems is that he runs like a back, not a forward.....

 

[possm]

That's easy fixed just tell him to face the other way and run forward.

I suppose it can be taught provided it's not too complicated.
