G'day all
Just spotted the thread title and I am wondering what happened to Tom Humble. How would he go at 5/8?? Does anyone rate him??

He's probably best injecting himself from fullback.

 

[eels81236]

6. Quade cooper
7. cherry evans

Two chances of Manly letting DCE go. None and buckleys.

I would chase Sandow and Sutton - I think they are both off contract I think. And I am not joking. They just need good coaching

puh-lease.....no offense but i want to vomit
they are terrible, particularly Sandow, he takes horrible options

that's awesome......love it!!!

I think we shoul just look for a half, I really think with a good half morts will be alot better

Mortimer is absolutely useless - and always will be.
He`s like the guy in a big office building who spends all day going from floor to floor with a piece of paper in his hand - he looks busy, but .....

And he also does some brilliant things. He`s a hundred and fifty two trillion times better than what we have now.

 

[True EEL]

sorry but Sandow has regressed also.....

We have Marmin Barba Brad murray and Humble-There our only options for this year.Barba maybe a little to small at this stage.Once Hayne contract is almost over Barba should be ready and if Hayne doesnt deicde to stay we will have a realy good player for the future.
If mitchel can step up while MK is out we could move Mcguire to halfback or MK to 5/8 as the only other options.
Maybe im the only one who liked morts at hooker last year-Dont rule him out there yet either...

no i noticed Morts go ok at hooker late last year too....

thou id leave morts at 5/8 for now-He is improving-He isnt a natural player-He is a hardworker-He is learning.He has added 20mtrs to his kick.He has thrwon a few nice balls this year.give him 1-2 years

 

[Brenno75]

Morts is SLOWLY improving, Robson is just staying the same. I would love a dominant halfback to play alongside Morts.

I'd give him until the end of this year and that is all. After 3 years in first grade he hasn't proven he's a 5'8th at first grade level then it's time to cut him lose. Can't persevere with a bloke forever no matter how committed they are to improve. If they don't have it they don't have it. Baby steps for Morts aren't really good enough after 2 seasons in first grade.

I agree. If he's not a first grader by the end of the year he deserves the arse.

But I'm happy with how he's improved so far.

Really?

To me it seemed like he just gave slow service. Wasn't a fan of him at hooker. He doesn't look like a halfback - his spot looks like 5/8 or nothing to me anyway.

I honestly think Mortimer would be a good Fullback in the preson campbel fold (just a lot less skillful). He is a good support player and a quality runner of the ball but his not creative and that has always been my issue because neither is Robson.

With Mortimer it is almost always 2 step forwards and 1 step back, he may do something good but then the next week reverts back to the old uncreative player and it makes me think its not natural for him.
