REUBEN GARRICK

[Dennis Papaioannou]

Watching Rueben Garrick continue to develop at Manly, I really question the way we identify talent.
This young fellow has size, speed to burn and is a very competent goal kicker.
Yet couldn't get a sniff under McGregor.
Moves to Manly under Hasler is doing himself proud.
This is a young guy who came through the STI system and ends up leaving to develop his career at another club.
St. George on the other hand, ignore their juniors and enter the market to sign (and re-sign) Periera, Ravalawa, Pearson and Maranta.
Our wingers continue to be one of our problems and I for one cannot understand the mentality.
Am I the only one?

happy for him, he'd have the talent coached out of him had he stayed at saints.

Not going to lie watched a lot of Gerrick not sure if his really a good long term winger i think his just in a well coached and confident team atm

I’d like to see how he goes when Blake and tapua aren’t dominating sorry for double post

You can measure him against the very best in the comp if you want but what about comparing him to what we are pinning our hopes on?
There is also nothing to suggest that he won't continue to develop into a top liner as well.

I would much prefer pereira and tbh we don’t know how Pearson will perform so guess we’ll just have to wait and see ?

In Hasler, Garrick now has a top line coach as well.

Oh what a difference a coach makes!

 

[Dragonslayer]

His defense was and still is his downfall. His ytd tackle efficiency is at 53%.
For comparison:
Periera tackle efficiency is at 81%
Dufty (64%) and Ravalawa (56%) gave both just been dropped.

Just sayin'.

 

[Old Timer]

3 tries down his wing tonight so reality check required when assessing him as a loss.

 

[j0nesy]

His defence is poor tonight.

But we constantly measure what we've got against the very best in the comp so it's only fair.
