Ins & outs for 2015

[billypilgrimnz]

We could go undefeated next season and billy would find a way to have a whinge about how bad the team is.

merkin <---- here, you forgot this.

DWZ hasn't really done much on the wing so far, and I haven't seen much to get excited about yet.

DWZ scored 7 tries in 10 games this year, not too bad for a rookie!!

Maybe you fell asleep in the last 5 minutes of the Roosters semi final....and for his try in the preliminary final as well.

Probably missed George Jennings encouraging performances in the nines also.

I think next year will be the year where Dallin either sinks or swims. He is he kind of player who you can love and hate at once. It would be incredibly frustrating when he would drop the ball or throw a stupid pass (however being his rookie year it was ok) but then there were other moments of brilliance and hopefully the off season will give him a chance to get some experience and smash it in 2015

 

[maple_69]

He's 19. I'd rather him dropping balls and pulling off freak plays. He'll become more consistent but we don't have many players that could pulled off those two freak plays in the finals.

Not sure how ready he is for fullback though.

VTk trialling for Northern pride, cowboys feeder. Big loss.

It could turn out to be a loss we regret, but really he is stuck behind Taylor, Peachey, Brown, Cartwright, BMM, Sika, Yeo, Docker....all those guys were picked ahead of him for backrow spots last season.

 

[MaxPower]

I predict we will never hear of him again.

He'd be a NSW Cup player if he stayed. He's one that could never get an injury free run to push for 1st grade

Shame none of the Tia Kilifis really kicked on. Vaipuna looked an absolute freak at 17 or so. Hopefully he gets an injury free run and does well.

It is often the case that youngsters who have a physical advantage over their peers during their junior football, stand out as being better than what they really are. Once their peers improve their strength, they come back to the field. I think VTK fitted that pattern. Physically imposing at a young age which allowed him to dominate and as others grow and catch up with him, he has turned out to be just ok, not exceptional.

Very few continue their dominance. Brad Fittler is the one who stands out in my years of watching juniors. Physically imposing at every age and when he steps up to First Grade and plays against man mountain Meninga in the GF, he runs him down and tackles him as he streaks away for a certain try. He then physically lifts him above his head. I have a great photo somewhere of him holding Meninga off the ground. He was 19 and Meninga was a colossus.

Bingo Pomoz.

I remember it well. Fittler is a once in 100 years player.

Meninga was a colossus.

Meninga was indeed a colossus, but Ken Irvine he was not, and as such you'd expect a talented young centre to catch him.

The Sattler Grand Final tackle, a backrower on a winger, was more remarkable in my opinion.

Is Jessica Alba ugly because another woman is considered more beautiful?

It's one thing catching Meninga, stopping him is a whole new adventure. Especially at speed.
