I realise he’s signed until 2021 with the Sharks but he’s not even making their 21 atm. A smaller more attacking 13 similar to Timmo for us. I reckon with the new rules a player like him could excel. We still need a big bopper but I’d take him for Graham at least on a loan deal if JDB case isn’t dismissed. It would be a win win, he’d get to play fg and we would add some X factor to go with the power game. Thoughts?

Agree but that’s why I think he’d be a great option because the Sharks are probably the only team in the comp that could potentially lay claim to being on par with ours in the L plate stakes.

L Plate would de-skill him........

Shades of last season when Host put an attacking kick in.
Not allowed to try that!

Correct...tuck the ball under your arm...run fast...Never pass or kick...we do that on tackle 6...a bomb into the corner...no one chases or puts pressure on as we do not want to concede field position...LOL

I wouldn’t waste my time on him. He’s a Cartwright type player. Lazy and gets excited in attack when he gets the ball.

Most importantly is not a fit for Maryball.

 

[RedVee]

We are more likely to take Russell Packer back

Even swap with Aitken before 30 June.

Then throw Ravalawa in at left centre and Saab on the right-wing.

Maybe they also would want to take Norman off our hands.

I'm definitely no EA fan but left side seems to suit him so maybe he can prove me wrong.

Not a battering ram

You’re probably right.

 

[RufusRex]

Definately not a lazy player .. can peel of 40 tackles in a half of footy .. But he would only be a lock and depending on JDB/McInnes wouldnt really feature here.

I’ve only seen him play twice, both times he played awesome but they were finals so maybe he lifted for them. Flanno will have coached him so I guess he would know inside knowledge if he is worth perusing.

My preference would be JDB back but if he’s not I would entertain a Magoulias/McInnes rotation.

 

[RufusRex]

we need to find another two or three for top 30 - perhaps more if Saab leaves.

Yeah we sure do and I don’t envy Millward he’s got his work cut out for him.

 

[epDragon62]

It would be much easier for Millward if a good coaching decision was made.

On Magoulis (spelling?) - on what I've seen and heard he is a yound gun.

I’d be happy if they had a go for Asiata to replace Jack. Plenty of ball skills which we lack.

I'd be happy if they kept McInnes at lock. He is an 80 minute player with a big motor, great defensive skills, good passing game, has short spurts of speed and can kick in general play if ever required. In addition he would be an onfield replacemnt at hooker if Hunt had to play in the halves due to one of our halves going down.

I have enjoyed the change in style Hunt brings to the team as hooker.
