Halfback

[sixtynine]

Who do you guys rekon should replace gregan? I think matt guito or valentine who do you guys rekon

Henjak would get first crack barring an absolute miracle. It won't be Valentine (in the short term). Giteau doesn't play halfback for the Brumbies so he pretty much won't be considered. Whitaker could give good service until the World Cup but is a very short-term option!

if brett sheahan gets an opportunity next season (which would mean whits would have to be injured), i think he will show us just how good a halfback he is, even better than henjak. i hope chris o'young gives henjak a run for his money at the force, because chris is also another talented young player.

henjack sorry i got him mixed up with valentine yeah he will be there has been some talk that guito might switch to half i fell for whitz cause he just came in the wrong time

One name: Luke Burgess.

Sydney Club Rugby Rookie of the Year 2005.

Brumbies reserve halfback 2006.

 

[Jackal Dog]

Henjak is a dickhead but I suppose he should get it, if not maybe Breet Sheehan should get a chance.

 

[aqua_duck]

isnt Brett Sheehan an ex leaguey?

 

[Timbo]

Whits is still the best we have.

 

[sixtynine]

Whits is still the best we have.

but not a long term option i think whits shoulda been picked the last year or so over greegan he gets the ball out quiker in one motion

 

[sixtynine]

Another good option would be to put whitz at half back and have the half that they think will be the next one and give him game time when we are winning (not that winning is happening much lately)

George Gregan. Once he retires in 2007, it's logical that Luke Burgess will succeed him.

Dam that Gregan holding up a youngster at the Brumbies. He should just retire from everything.

 

[Tim Brasher]

Hmmm its a tough call. Whits deserves a chance but I think he is a year or two past his best. Henjak played well against Ireland and appears to be the next long term half and i would expect Josh Valentine to come under consideration for the World Cup. He is very good player who was not well liked by Eddie Jones. In the immediate future i would start Whits but would give Henjak game time from the bench

George Gregan. Once he retires in 2007, it's logical that Luke Burgess will succeed him.

What a tradgedy it would be for the wallabies if that has-been kept his spot.

 

[CanadianSteve]

They should move Giteau there soon to develop him into a 9. It will give a new dimension to the position.

i think gits said that he only wants to be play no. 12 and if the wallabies goes away from the eddie jones style of play, he will never be mentioned as a possible halfback ever again.
