An absolute turnstile in defence. Good off-load but is always played out of position (granted not his fault). I'm neither here nor there on him, been in the side for a few years and hasn't shown any tangible improvement.
f**k him off. Turnstile in defence is giving him a wrap. The 7 year old kid from Brisbane sitting in front of me could have tackled better than him today.

Harrison is a poor defender, no arguments. But in the whole time he has been at our club this has not been improved by the coaching staff.

However, he's not a prop. Never was, never will be. Though supercoach seems to think otherwise.

Bronson Harrison played as a center his entire junior career and just quietly, dominated every age group rep team he played in. When he gets to Flegg super coach moves him to lock. The in PL to second row. When he debuts in firsts he is played as a battering ram second rower/prop. The bloke has had his career killed. I can't see him ever being anything more then a fringe first grader at a mediocre club now.

I said the virtually the same thing last night. Moving him out of the Centres was the worst thing we ever could have done for him, he still managed to kill it as a lock in flegg but thats a long way from first grade and he's bulked up to such an extent now that he's lost virtually everything that made him so exciting in the first place because they want to make him the worlds most ineffective battering ram.

what is with Sheens and co making props out of guys who would never be props.

He tried to make Nigel Plum a front rower. He came to the club as a fast wide running lock whose defence was as close to perfect as you'll ever get from a 19 year old.

Look at the poor bugger now, even though he's playing first grade, he does nothing but defence. They killed the greatest asset in his game.

Could it be that Sheens has more of an eye towards innovations, and leaving some sort of "legacy" that changes the game, rather than simply focussing on winning matches from week to week? Johns once said something along the lines that what Sheens is doing with the Tigers reminded him of "total football", in soccer- minimizing specialist players as much as possible, using as many utilities as you can get away with, getting players to adopt a number of positions. What with the "Athletes vs Footballers" thing, the suggestion was intriguing. Just a thought. Not saying that this is THE answer.

He should have left the tigers last year when off contract.

Dont think he was moved to prop for his benefit - it was purely because a lack of props at the club. Honestly I wouldnt blame Teo for leaving the club as he knows he'd probably end up playing prop like Harrison.
Move harrison out wide and give him early ball.
tbh Heighno should be the one playing prop w/ injuries - who naturally plays tighter.

Other than probably fulton he actually probably made the most tackles yesterday but has come with some bad reads/mistackles this year.

He been playing with a bung shoulder - pretty obvious. With so many injuries he has to keep playing until KG and payten get back. - but after seeing what payne/tandy offer no wonder he has to keep on playing.

Yeah because there's no difference between making an observation on a player's performance and trying to pick a fight on an internet forum you twat. Grow up.
