Rnd 1 Vs Brisbane

[Iamback]

He has not created anything for a few years.I see his only hope of breaking the 17 is injury or converting to hooker

Does Salmon offer more though?

 

[Original Name]

A bit different being smaller but having no First Grade experience. May played 21 games last year, versus Turuva a Rookie who is normally a Fullback coming into First Grade He May well cover the void, but in my opinion Critta can play Wing and we can get experience for the others staying.

Critter can play wing and who plays centre in this scenario?

 

[Luke Bowden]

Does Salmon offer more though?

Yes, salmon is a rock solid defender, runs hard and can slot into the backline or the forward pack. He’s good at maintaining momentum and pressure while we test the starters.

Not really Peachey’s game

Again a solid player though, Is not what the starting 13 doesn't offer. Solid teams don't win premierships

We’ve just won two on the trot

 

[Black Panther]

I think we should worry about getting guys experience for next season, next season.

This season we have a premiership to try and win, so we need to pick our best two centres at centre. Crichton is one of them, so that’s where he should stay.

By moving Crichton to the Wing it helps us.

Jenkins or Turuva.

 

[Buzzard Breath]

Turuva played a bit of centre in reserve grade last year. Defensively he got carved up. So bad he was moved to the wing. What I saw from him last Saturday he still is a work in progress.

I would move To'o left and play Turuva or Jenkins on the wing next to Crichton.
Let them learn off Crichton and the right side combinations.
Can always reassess later in the year.

 

[Blade23]

Does Salmon offer more though?

Salmon plugs any holes and holds the line.
Old Peachey offered unpredictably flair.
Peachey 2.0 is undetermined.

 

[Whino]

I wouldn't be moving Crichton. He offers far more in attack and is safer in defence than an unproven rookie.
We need to play the long game. Put his successor outside of him.

We aren't the same squad though

 

[Luke Bowden]

We aren't the same squad though

We have a system, it’s the same being used in Flegg through to First grade. Salmon knows his role and does it well.

Hooker is only real point of doubt, Peachy doesn’t strengthen that.

 

[Murraymob1]

Does Salmon offer more though?

Yes

 

[Crashtest]

I disagree with you there, as neither Turuva nor Jenkins are up to Crichton’s level as a centre. So why would we choose to be weaker at centre to cover the loss of a winger, when we can instead just replace a winger with the next best winger at the club and not have to make any changes to the centre position?

Peachey 2.0 is undetermined.

At 24 Salmon hasn't had much time either and no real position. I think that's difficult for a player. Low minutes and thrown all over the place.
He is a kid that always had high potential. He probably needs more game time to get there but I am tipping him to be the most improved in your side.

I won't count the 2020 season

We have lost

An Origin backrower
A test Centre/5-8th
An Origin hooker - Top 3 in the game
A 2nd rower that can't do what any other backrower can.

You are delusional if you think the side doesn't have to evolve

 

[Iamback]

Yes

I am sure opposition teams will be shitting their pants when we take off one of our rep middles and bring on Salmon

We should of made him a 9, If Peachey doesn't get him. Jack Cole will

The side is evolving. Our players are consistently improving, whilst staying within our system.

Peachy on the bench is not an improvement at this point.

and they would be shitting bricks if Peach came on?!?
