Reece Robson Leaving

[RufusRex]

Commentary tonight made a great point ...

The width, accuracy and speed of Smith's pass getting the ball to the edges is telling.

The one thing that Robson has over McInnes in spades ... Mary is a dolt who doesnt know the talent at his disposal.

I dont know how you can say that given Robson has hardly played 5 minutes of NRL.

When Robson has shown that at NRL level then I will agree.

Yep.

I rate Robson but looking sharp in short stints compared to playing a full 80 under the fatigue that Mcinnes withstands making 50-odd tackles just simply cannot be compared...

he handled the 20's and ISP and got better as the year went on, so given time he's body SHOULD adapt to playing longer minutes and against more physical players, has the skill set to succeed...

Mary is a dolt who doesnt know the talent at his disposal.

Exactly.. he has hundreds of coaching experts at his disposal on this forum, and does he listen to any of them?

Mary is very consistent...He doesn't listen to ANY Coaching Experts whether on this forum or not!

It is very simple. The contest for fullback is Widdop v Dufty with the loser going to reggies. No room on the bench for either one of them. The bench should be comprised of four forwards, no matter what Mary says. If a back gets injured, one of the backrow forwards can move to centre.

This whole idea of mucking around with spine in the last 20 minutes is a game loser not a game winner. A small tweak like bringing Robson to play hooker and moving McInnes to lock or off to the bench will result in enough change to ignite the team.

We will all know a lot more about this after round 1.

in case of emergency Mcinnes could play centre and Robson takes his place

Mary has a poor history when it comes to developing young talent. Even when he is forced to give young talent minutes, he sends them out with instructions to run straight and hard, then get to a quick play the ball. In defence he has not idea the level of difficulty he presents to his team when adopting the same old compressed structure that most teams have developed a plan to nullify.

I'm sure that if Mary let the likes of Lomax, Robson, Kerr and Timm to do their stuff by helping them to develop their skills instead of getting them to play to his fatigue producing plan, our squad would be the better for it.

At this stage, McInnes should stay in the middle mainly because he is a valuable work horse in defence. To me lock seems to be the more appropriate position for McInnes when Robson is on the field.

I'm ok with Hunt jumping into dummy half from time to time however, I think he would be an absolute disaster defending in the middle. On the defence side of play, I think Robson at hooker and McInnes at lock would add to our ability to defend up the middle. On the attacking side of things, I believe having Robson at dummy half will add a new dimension to our attack both up the middle and out on the edges.

Yes Od - McGuire had
the requisite testicular fortitude to move Reynolds to Reggies for team balance.

Not so a Waterboy with performance anxiety

I’d love to see Tyson in the centres in an emergency

Chin up Zac & Reece, there’ll be justice down the track under a new coach - at another club probably

 

[RufusRex]

Possm .. McInnes could easily handle the defensive workload of lock .. Very much a hinchcliffe mould there ... Wont be a ball carrier like JT/TF but an occasional 7-8m hit up and 30-40 tackles kind of lock works.

2 interchanges and you can spell both McInness and Frizell and give Robson decent minutes ...

The player in question of team balance then becomes Leilua ... But we dont have a player like Staggs that can play C/BR ... Perhaps JDB money could be spent in that area .. Get a bloke like Thommo (old now) and the balance looks better ... Probably means you need a Lomax in the centres rather than Aitken ... that works for me but not Mary.

Could Host play Centre in that Thommo mould? Really dont know.

Can someone with club contacts and influence invite Mary to this forum!

I don't disagree in an emergency I'm sure Sims, Tyson, host ,and mcinnes could play in the back line if required .. .. .Just ask the coach.. ..

Will Robson stay, hope so. If you want to know how our club manages just look at some of the juniors we let go and see where they are playing now. First Grade. End of Story

 

[nontime111]

we used to embrace our juniors, now we cant assure them a place so we import it sucks, I am more excited about this batch than any other since Mundine, Tallis, Stevens Brownie etc came through!
