Yeah I agree Johnsy, I have always considered Dean Young a backrower. He's your old fashioned, 80 minute, no fuss, 40 tackle, club rugby league back rower. However he does have a decent short ball playing game. The problem for Youngy is that we simply have too many good back rowers. His versatility is pobably his worst enemy.

Stupid thread. I hadn't noticed he's struggling. Apart from the missed tackle on Mortimer for the 2nd try, what did he do wrong on Sunday?

He was instrumental in our 1st try, is always the first to fire up the team, talks a lot, makes 40 odd tackles, and plays with true passion. He'd be in my starting 13 every week.

He also missed Jared Hayne at the end there more than any other player quite horribly!!!!

The most obvious solution is to replace Young with Paea, kill 2 birds with 1 stone, kkthx.

His piss weak efforts on Hayne(not alone though) and Mortimer were disgraceful. It cost us 12 points without even looking at his poor attack.

If i wasnt so lazy, id like to go run video of Young and Fien's last few games.... and see for myself, I do notice when were sluggish/indecisive out of dummy half, and it really kills our momentum, but I've been too busy gnawing off my own arms to notice specifically who is at fault.

I still think you have to count raw tackles done though, if Young wasn't making them, someone else would have to. Also his leadership is important.

I forgot we even had Priddis, where is he hiding?
