Rabbitohs Rumors, Signings and News

[Eric the great]

We need a top defender opposite Deardon.
I think Wighton is better than Latrell at covering the D required for Deardon

Two weeks ago jacks defence was being questioned

 

[Eric the great]

I think habilitation has been pulling his weight in the team

Shit spell check again havilli

Shit spell check again havilli

I thought that was your new nickname for him. Lol!

 

[Eric the great]

Thing is, when you say leave Latrell where he is ATM, Wayne shifted him to 5/8 in the 2nd half, not Wighton. And we won. So, while he could consider shifting Jack there next week, makes you wonder why he didn't do that the other night.

It's still a possibility but I would rate Mitchell at 6 is more likely now - if Cody is out.

If you watched an interview of jack on Friday night after the roosters game jack said that Wayne said hey jack you played a bit of 5/8 last year your do you reckon you went alright jack replied yep and Wayne said your playing centre

I'd be good with either, just giving you what I'd do.

Not saying he isn't I just like LeBlanc's versatility a bit more

 

[BotanyBorn&Bred]

Dearden likes to run across to the edge backrowers and centres before straightening off the dummy. The 5/8s are less likely to go directly head to head and frankly I would rate Trell's defence ahead of Jack's.

He did miss a tackle, poor attempt hanging out his arm, that resulted in a try.

 

[speedster]

I do too. I reckon it's very close between them. Havili's versatility being able to cover hooker plus experience probably gets him over the line - just.

Jack's missed more in recent times.

i like leblanc but on Friday night a couple of times when mamo ran from dummy half it was havilli who jumped into dummy half

Yeah, I get that, but you could put that down to just having a poor game.
We have seen him have good defensive games too.
Lessening the D workload for Latrell @ 5/8 also works to leave him fresher in attack.

True

Certainly will be a more than interesting TLT coming up next week.

For mine, Latrell's passing game is my favourite part of his game. He can run it, pass and kick. The lot. He'd be wasted out in the centres I reckon at this level and I especially want him doing most of the playmaking. Jack's more of a running 5/8 but very few have the sweet hands that Latrell has.

 

[Eric the great]

On another subject how many hamstring injuries across all games

 

[speedster]

Somebody's out there with an air rifle or something. Fair dinkum.

no argument from me on these points

 

[Eric the great]

Just read on zero tackle at this mornings training run trell 5/8 bud halfback AJ one wing Myers’s the other wing dodds didn’t train.

On a brighter note, our man extends his lead atop the Dally M leader board!
