Pacific Championships 2023

[Chins get the wins]

Yeo is the most harshly graded player at rep level.

He plays the traditional lock role at the highest possible level

Did QLD ever give a shit when Dallas Johnson made a heap of tackles without missing with no run metres?

Yeo at rep level still makes forty tackles at 100% efficiency and a hundred metres running.

He hasn't been able to get the ball playing going in rep games but is still the best in the league at playing as a traditional lock.

People are idiots

He doesn't play like Joey Johns, so must be shit. He is one of the few in the team that didn't disgrace himself.

Dylan on the other hand will probably never play rep football again.

He should still be a walk up to the Blues no 1 spot.

Green & Gold I'd say you are right, they will go with Ponga or Just Lashes.

I'd pick him but I have a bad feeling they'll do something dumb like pick Drinkwater

Hopefully we get a coach that isn't a complete idiot.

Maguire just beat Australia with CNK at FB.

Dyl and him are very similar players.

Be interesting to see if he goes for grit over flair as NSW coach.

I think Dyl would suit a Madge coached team perfectly. Just needs to get the gig first.

 

[The Realist]

He got sold out badly by those inside him.

This is excuse making. There was at least one try where Dyl rushed up (off the scrum play?) and got caught infield directly leading to a try. It was nobodies fault other than his. There were also a few other tries that whilst they were not 100% Dyl fault - an Elite winger would likely have made different decisions and stopped the try.

That game just underscored how Dylan is a Fullback or nothing.

 

[TroyJax]

Yeah, you are right. He just fades into the background along with all the other players who made 41 tackles and over 100m in the forwards and 55PCM. The list is so long that I decided not to write it down, it would be tedious. What's that you say? "Show it to me please". All right here goes, the list:






Yeo.

Vanilla, to quote Jim Royle, "my arse".

His stats were good. However if you watched the game, they were padded. Australia were rolled in the middle. His returns were ineffective. Far too vanilla. Far too boring. We need more dynamic players at this level.

So the other players weren't at fault?

Bums like Haas are the problem, he's never stood up in a game that mattered

 

[TroyJax]

Of course they were. Our prop rotation were all beaten. Our backrowers missed a tonne of tackles.
Yeo wasn’t immune despite his inflated stats. He got beat well like the rest.

This is somewhat true.
It’s a shame he has had to develop through the NSW system.

Yeah, same for Leota and JFH. They would have been better if they played in QLD..........

If you are going to make controversial statements please back them up with some facts and logical analysis.

Saying, "stats are padded" is rubbish. Padded how? No kick returns for Yeo, just hard yards with fast play the balls. The trouble was nobody else was doing the work to capitalise on it.

I don't get the Tino love either. Apart from bashing a centre in Origin he has done f**k all.

You're a imbecile

*you’re an imbecile
Lol you Penrith scum are so uneducated and inbred it’s like shooting fish in a barrel.
When people attend a few classes rather than spending all day handing out wristies to fat kids for $5, they learn to speak.

That’s a poor take on a great young prop who plays years of quality above his experience level.

A lot of his tackles are flops or non dominant.
A lot of his runs are ineffective, stuttery momentum killers.
He goes well for Penrith, does very little for NSW and is ineffective for the Kangaroos.
Rep level is above his talent ceiling. Good club man only.
