Hastings

[Dragsters]

He looked much better yesterday than he has all season

He played at 5/8 and was in a dominant side.

Not sure which one of the 2 was the reason?

 

[coast_dragons]

Had a half who plays straight and direct.

Didn't have the guide the team around all on his own

A strong forward pack.

Kid has talent, no doubt, Would only take him back as a 5/8 IF we already had a good Halfback to lead the team around already.

 

[denis preston]

He is cursed with one fatal flaw that stopped his father from playing regular rep football- speed. Would take back if we had a dominant half.No zip for hooker either.

I would put a few thousand dollars that we would have scored double the tries if Hastings and Bird were our halves!!

And both are damn juniors.

Let's see how Bird goes in the country match!

Widdop and Benji must go

Cut the excuses you who say they shouldn't.

How many points do we score a game??!

Ohhhh.....a whole big fat 9!!

Lol lol

They dont even score enough to make the wanderers soccer side!

We'd need to pay 1.5 MIL annual to get the pair back...fkd up

 

[Fingerbang]

I would pass on Hastings and Bird.....I still don't see enough in both of them, sorry

Correct, the Dragons need to look beyond their juniors.
FACT
Haven't stated that for a while as I have had nothing worthwhile to post for sometime.

Watching Jai Field on the weekend when Jack Payne went down with injury he took over and did a really good job.

I was very impressed with the performance of our NYC team last weekend. If Head can keep them performing like that, they have a really good chance in 2016.

I believe Dafty would not look out of place in first grade.

I agree Possm they played a well thought out game plan.

They had players in motion and the halves directed everyone around even when Payne went off they didn't miss a beat.

The backline sat deep and ran onto a pass and the hooker Robson had good vision when looking to pass with inside and outside passes.

Matty Head was smart player and may end up being a very smart coach in time.

Hastings has talent, not the obvious Jack Bird talent.. but the skills are there, he does look like a cleetus, but getting rid of the beard would help..

I think Widdop + Hastings could work, definitely not on top dollar though.. Hastings is very much a 'maybe' still.. but i think he just needs time, he does nearly win games for his team, hes quite creative.... but he also has a few errors of judgement, he almost pulled off the game against us 2 weeks ago..

However I reckon he will stay at Roosters as 1st drop for injury, even if they sign someone.. they probably bought a house for his mother or some such, and I reckon still keen to keep him, just perhaps not 1st grade week in week out just yet.

I watched this game also, was really impressed with our squad. Plenty of passion and skill.
