Peachey

[brooksy19]

As a Rugby League fan I'd be very dissapointed if he wasn't picked for a farewell game given Merrit is on the Disabled list.

He still looked the goods in PL on Sunday, would be a very sad way to see a genuine nice guy of League go out in PL.

He still looked the goods??? IMO he looked a little slow and his mind not entirely there but I agree that he should be picked. It is no-brainer we have no other options...but if he gets picked it won't and shouldn't be for sympathy or one last hurrah it should be form and even though to me he didn't look that flash...he looked reasonable and compared to these options...

1. Talanoa
2. Gordon/Hegs
4.Heg/Gordon

OR

1. Simmonds

OR

1. Talanoa
2. Simmonds
4. Gordon


The option of Merritt out and Peach in is a hell of alot better. I don't think he will add much to the side but unlike the other options he won't take anything away.

I thought add to be perfectly honest whatever JT does I will be happy with though because he I believe knows what he is doing.

Yeah would love to see Peachey have one more shot at finals footy. He is a big game player and we may just see some of that old brilliance.

Regal Reece - Attack from the Back

Hegarty and Simmonds are liabilities simple as that, he has to play.

Reece Simmonds a liability ???? That is nothing more than horsesh1t !!!

You've been at sea for too long Pirate, Reece is as safe as a nun's nasty, and more than capable of filling the void left by Merritts injury. He defends well, is safe under the high ball, has a good kicking game and has deceptive pace. A liability, I think not.

 

[Dazzat]

Too many 'directors' and not enough actors if Peachey plays .... Williams, Smith and Rogers. Peach may not suit coach Taylor's plans, regardless of how well he's playing.

Thats you isn't it Reece

 

[Wilco]

I don't agree with it but this afternoon I think you will see:

1. Talanoa
2. Hegarty
3. Gordon
4. Vagana
5. Mellor

With Peach to play out his days in PL.

everyone get down to nth syd oval this friday to watch the magic man

Peachey is a great footballer and a great bloke. I had the pleasure of working with his charity (and himself) and i must say the bloke is a true gentleman of the game. I would love to see him participate in a swansong finals series - he deserves it... and i strongly doubt he would let anyone down.

 

[thehattrickrabbit]

Either way he gets to play a final series, We Got Nothing To Lose This Week In Playing Peachey, Peachey Certainly wont be a liability, very safe under the high ball, and adds an extra playmaker to the fold, Merritt is a ballrunner, Peachey this year has been an extra five eighth to us, I think he will give us plenty of more attacking options.

If his game doesnt Coincide with JTs Game Plans, then he will still be playing Finals Footy.

 

[Junior Bunny]

If the baldy is back in the starting team then we will only thrash them by 40, instead of 50.

 

[Wilco]

Peachey was not selected.

 

[Mr Dark]

Talanoa fullback - Peach not selected

As it turns out, you are more than likely right. That is the only sense I can make of his omission.

 

[perverse]

no Peach? wtf???

 

[jamesgould]

That is puzzling ... I can understand building for the future, but with injuries hitting and a finals spot on the line, you'd think Peachey's experience would come in very handy.

 

[NK Arsenal]

JT - wtf!

Yeah that is a great idea.

North Sydney Oval - 7pm.

A chance to farewell David Peachey.

And it should be a good match because Canterbury are Minor Premiers and North Sydney are in pretty good form, winning 7 of their last 8 games.
