Chris Lawrence

[TV Ted Ellery]

Thanks Chris, you seem like a delightful, unassuming guy but as a first grader you offer nothing.

 

[Shanghai Charlie]

Such a nice guy.
But Ive given up on him.
Has just got no game at all.
Injuries have turned him from origin-class player to NSW Cup player.

Dont mean to be to unkind to him but I cant see him even adding much at that level either

Sadly you are probably right.
There are guys running around in park and country football who can give us what he is.

Wouldve played Origin if Sheens was coach.

Injuries have taken there toll on Chris,sad but true he is only a shadow of the player he used to be,it's time to relegate him then off load him .

 

[Matchball]

I'd seriously take Utai over Lawrence. He is that terrible.

 

[chopsy_05]

Was one of the best hole runners I've ever seen but has never been the same after the hip injury. How much longer is he contracted?

 

[Shanghai Charlie]

Lost without Marshall too. Every hole he ever hit was because of Benji.
Strictly speaking about footballing related holes of course.

 

[Matchball]

Why does he always go for the most lowest percentage play in the game when he gets outnumbered in defence?
The interception.

 

[the beavers]

He played lock for the junior roos. ..
Is there a future for him there?

 

[TYGA]

He should not be selected it was clear a year ago. We need to sign a centre or find one Lulia and Lawrence are not fg material. We will be up and down but really need to cut ties with Lawrence, moltzen, Blair which could clear around 1m in cap space. Blair to his credit is going well just overpaid. How many tries were from his side of the field?

 

[gronkathon]

Fine or Akouala

 

[macnaz]

Fine or Akouala

I think at least one of these two will move up soon

 

[Sunshine Coast Tiger]

Prior to the hip injury he was on track to be an elite centre, he has never been even 1/2 as good since coming back. Someone told me that the hip injury that he got being so unusual it would likely be the end of his career.

All credit to Chris for working hard and getting back on the pitch and he comes across well off the pitch. He is however no longer a NRL level centre.

He is very Wayne Pearce like in his dedication and professionalism , its such a shame the way his career was riddled which serious injuries But that dreaded tap on the shoulder time is now and id hate to be the coach or club official that has to bring him the news.

 

[Matchball]

Just watch the replay. Lawrence just has no speed from a standstill.
By the time he reacts, they were gone.
Those 2 tries before half time ( excluding the freak half time try) are all on him and his slow reaction to the attack.
Then the try right after the half. What the feck? Bat that shit away.

 

[benched tiger]

I am thinking this week Potter will be teaching the boys how to defuse grubber kicks,chips and bombs etc.

 

[innsaneink]

Yeah our work in this area was woeful, no protection for those under the high ball from team mates

But I dont think Manly will have to do too much attacking kicking against us

 

[ripthebodyhookthehead]

Can't see where he can fit in anymore?

 

[benched tiger]

No wonder we were rubbish last year when you also throw in Lote,Reddy,Ayshford,Anasta,Moltzen,Bengi along with Lawrence.
