Agree, I can not see Smith/Moses as halves and gutherson in centres.

Id be happy to keep Gower over Alvaro or Mannah thou.

Both him and Norman are not natural halfbacks in my opinion, they are athletic imitations of the position, hence why Arthur was so desperate to find someone he deemed "dominant" half approved. Little does he know...

I think Norman is far more like a traditional five-eight in the way he plays. And while I would have preferred someone like Adam Reynolds or Townsend or even Hodgkinson to partner him, I do think that Moses has the potential to modify his game to become more like a traditional half-back. I think it can work.

Either is correct, but if I were to be pedantic using incorrectly would be more formally correct.

But this a forum, not the Dead Poets Society. We get Fanbase instead of whichever mincer Robin Williams played, and no one is standing on desks in support of him....

Semi-colon after 'correct', and comma after 'pedantic' - if we want to be pedantic.

That would be an improper use of a semi-colon, as those clauses are interdependent rather than independent.

Since we're being pedantic.

I have 5 centreline tickets (best seats in the house) with parking at P1 included. If you want them, PM me. I have them printed. The problem is you have to come to my place and scoop them up. Sorry for the late notice.

I can't recall a half ever being purshased for his defensive game.

As for paying him so much, how much have we paid?

I guess we did wests a favour taking him then.
Of course you don't buy a half for their defence, but you expect a bare minimum defensively from them.

He doesn't know how to slide on the line. He gets out of position early and often, he tackles high and doesn't stick.

You expect an understanding of defensive structures as a minimum.

Hopefully he can be taught that by your mob (admittedly the Tigers idea of defence is f**king blank)

Tigers fans are pissed at his attitude and behaviour this year. We all know he's talented.

If your mob can get his head right and get him smarter in defence, he will be a great buy.

They'll probably be back to hang shit on us when he has a bad game as well.

I can't wait for the zingers.
meh. We're happy enough continuing to lose games so long as he isn't in the side.

I hope he plays well for you guys. He's great to watch when playing well.
