Beau in the backrow

HE did ok, but I don't think this Beau in the backrow experiment can be an ongoing thing. He just doesn't have the size. The bench from last night proves beyond doubt that Sheens has lost his mind.

I will say one thing though, Beau gets bagged a bit, but one thing that can't be questioned is his toughness. He certainly puts his body on the line.

I'm happy to have him ahead of Utai.

Ryan did a good job at fullack when he filled in there. I think that is where WT should look at playing him next year if he is retained (and doesnt go to Penrith as previosly rumoured). His is slow for a winger but faster than McKinnon and not crippled by injury problems as McKinon is.

He tried hard yes.......but he's still shit. As for playing him ahead of Utai, you've gotta be kidding.

There was a couple of games just before his broken arm that Utai got caught out of position badly in defence, which led directly to tries. He's also yet to diffuse a bomb. That one that bounced straight off his fat head into touch is about as good as it gets with him.

Yes he gets good yards out of dummy half bringing it out from our end, but that's it, he's very one dimensional. Although I do have to give him some credit for his quick hands for Ayshford's try on the weekend.

He's also f*cked up a few tries chasing through grubbers, the reality is he's just too short for a modern day winger.

I'm on the John Grant train!!
