yeah, he definatly has potential but I'd like to see him hone his skills in reggies similar to what Thorman is doing.

Nah, I disagree. He's a very quick learner and give him three or four weeks he'll be right. He gives us some much needed lateral movement in the forwards and until Hoppy is back he's definitely the best option. Who do you propose takes his place? He's definitely going better than Pai.

I thought that O'Dwyer was really good tonight. Im sure he was like a terrier in defence. I say leave him there. he just needs to go on a crash course to bulk up a fair bit and he will be fine

after canberra i believe we have 4 "simple" games... whilst the rest of our team is performing, we might as well give him a chance to prove himself. certainly in a more desperate situation, it would be best to go with experience

I rally like his defensive technique, you cant hone that in premmy league with wannabes runing at you.

He shows matiruty for his age and I think he is better that premmy league but still learing NRL.

And on top of that he's a Tweed Heads local, what more can you ask for.

He's done nothing flashy aside fom the pass that put Nathan in last week and he does the job defensively. He will get better with time. Remember he only trained seven weeks of the off season whilst he finished his apprenticeship. He passes the ball well and with Morris on one side of Dykes and he on the other they have some good links to the outside backs. His defense on the goal line was better than a lo of the other blokes out there. He hasn't done anything wrong to warrant being dropped.

O'Dwyer is a Gun.
He pretty much started off like Lyon did when he debut.

Nothing Flashy and build his game as the played more top grade.

I wouldn't drop O'Dwyer at all...
