Assuming 12 is Idris d4l?

Lol, yeah my bad, 12 idris

Nice choice of words. Turfed? Hooked?

He's a better half, to me it's where he's most potent. He moved to a half-type role when Ennis and Payne were binned in R6 vs Parramatta and he killed it.

Turner is a secure, experienced back, and fullback wouldn't trouble him.

I don't understand why Idris isn't in the second row with Ryan at prop.

fair enough comments Timmah, i was just unsure whether that was your opinion before the last game (which looks like it is) or only your opinion after the poor performance.

I agree with a lot of that post.

I still think FB is his position. He won't get the broken line or the support runs in the halves and that is his absolute stand out at the moment.

To me the problem with Barba in the halves is the defensive workload he'd have to take on. If I'm an opposition coach I'd send all my forwards right at him. You'd have to hide him on the wing in D

If Luke Walsh can play in the Halves then I think Barba will be sweet. The kids gotta be in your team somewhere, he is so dangerous. I would be sticking with him at FB though atleast for the rest of the season, the doggies arent doing anything special this year anyway so why not give him some time to adjust to the position?

I think him getting his hands on the ball more would create more opportunities than Keating/Hokko combined at the moment, and we need to address 2011 now.

He has been tested before and came out on top. I remember having my heart in my mouth many times this season watching Barba take high ball after high ball early on in the season. Last nights performance was a one off.

...and this week's performance????? Another 'one off?'

lolIdris has proven to be a myth. Couldn't even get near Origin after his off-season hype.
