Alex McKinnon on Nicho

Just read this article on Fox Sports, I think Alex wants to join the forum.
This is his quote
I think Hynes dominant days in the halves are over and it's time to move him into the forwards where he can make more of an impact.

He made a fist if playin just about everywhere in Melbourne and j think these days he's perfectly suited to become a ball playing lock.

No 13 is a bloody tough position to play but Nicho has both the size and the skill to become a player similar to Isaiah Yep.

Cam McInnes can play just about anywhere in the forward pack, I wouldn't worry about this his minutes reducing, play him in the front row alongside AFB.

As who slots into Hynes spot in the halves ? I don't think Will Kennedy has the speed to be an elite fullback anymore but he could be an impactful no 6. or you could throw Dan Atkinson in there for the rest of the season before he heads to the Dragons.

Raiders teenagers Chevy Stewart is a Cronulla junior who isn't getting a crack in Canberra Being Stewart home and hand him the no 1 jersey his speed is electric.

If the sharks are brave enough to make some big decisions the it could reap some even bigger rewards.

That's it's
I have my opinon on this and I don't agree

Can't see Hynes moving spot for 2 years at least.

McInnes may well end up like Finucane and get old quick. He is not there yet. Still very effective in 13.

In attack, Hynes would be a good link and can run the ball in traffic. Defence would need work.

Kennedy as a 6 has been floated by some. It's a possibility if he stays. With Ison and Dykes injured, nothing is going to happen at fullback.

Nicho needs to run most, catch and pass next, kick least.

Get around the ball on either side of the ruck. Don’t just park yourself on the right.
No reason he can’t play a link role as it is.

Hang on, have Stakey and Alex ever been photographed together...?!?
I was about to say Alex must be wanting to join the forum.

Kennedy to 5/8 no way in the world.
When he said throw Atkinson into the halves, that makes no sense when we are a chance this year and he is also leaving.
If we were no chance and he is leaving then you promote Pollard or Puru if you want to try something.
And get Chevy back I am sure Ricky will say there you sharks here is a leg up
This article was bad 😞 😞 😞
