Idris - the myth

[juanfarkall]

Will Idris lose his RTA 3rd party deal when he heads up to the coast ?

 

[adamkungl]

He'ss probably play Origin due to lack of options with Lyon and Cooper out, and Jennings in indifferent form. I'm not usually one to suggest playing someone out of position, but imo Gordon could make a decent go of centre.

 

[Dragon_Taylor6]

Yeah Gordon is a quality player, but I think he is now out for a while.

 

[thommo4pm]

He won't be In origin, well starting anyway. He plays on the right, same side as gasnier plays on. He has no chance of getting picked ahead of gaz in the centres. Left centre might be j Morris or Jennings.

 

[Molly]

Dogs are an attack through the middle kind of team. I think he'll be better at the titans. But his defence needs to improve too.

He wont be better at the Titans. The Titans have one of the lamest 9-7-6-1 combos in the league and they are recruitng centres. Give me a break. With Idris and Champion in the centres next year, they will also have no need for wingers either......matter of fact, what do wingers do anyway..!!?.

 

[ME SO HORNBY!]

He sure did.

Fun fact: that year Dugan amassed 12 Dally M points in 16 games, while Idris played 18 games for a mammoth haul of 1 point.

Yeah i remember that. Was a deadset joke.

 

[Borat.]

Dont get me wrong - he is a good player but he just lacks that speed you need in a centre. His size /height are his biggest attributes.

It is a pity that both Cooper and Lyons are no longer playing rep footy because they would be my first choice centres.

While we are on this topic - what the f**k has Gasnier done to deserve a roll up back to SOO?

He plays for St Merge

 

[adamkungl]

le Gaz is easily our best centre option, probably even if we had everyone fit. Would have loved to see Lawrence get a run, poor bastard

 

[Jason Maher]

Gaz and Lawrence would be the ideal pairing for mine. Someone should sue Chris Lawrence for getting injured and putting us in a position where bitch tits could actually be selected.

 

[ellskimore]

I like Idris, good personality and enjoys playing the game and reaching out to the fans. Has had a solid year and definitely caused us some trouble under the high ball last night. Perhaps he gets promoted a little heavy in the media, but he is not to blame for the media attention.

 

[Big Pete]

Idris gets way too much heat on these boards.

Same with Inglis, Kidley and Creagh.

 

[Charles Bronson]

its justified cause he is rubbish and over hyped

 

[BranVan3000]

He hasn't been around for long, but he seems to go incredibly for about 6 - 8 weeks and then slowly drift off in form

 

[mattyg]

He sure did.

3 years later and your still crying about it :lol:

 

[Jason_(Is_our_King)_Smith]

He can be good in attack however the dogs last night didn't set up one backline play to get him involved.

I think he'll be a different player outside Scott prince

Correct.The Dogs 5/8 in particullar had a couple of chances to throw it out wide to Idris who was in a bit of room but inexplicably chose not to. He's a lot faster acrossl the ground than people give him credit for.

 

[jamoss]

I like his personality and his style of play but im not sure he's quite as good as he gets touted to be.. If it were me id pick him on the bench for origin as he could fill center or forward roles..

 

[juanfarkall]

was talking with a couple of mates and we came to the conclusion that Idris is not much more than a taller, darker version of David Williams but with tits and a funky hair do.

 

[Mr Saab]

Idris is another Wolfman, all show, not much go. LOL @ the Tits for paying him 500k

 

[Notaleaver]

as a bulldogs fan im absolutely ropeable that idris is seen as an awesome player by so many people (which hes not). Hes shocking in every way except under the high ball and getting gus excited.

It's funny coz it's true.
