Round 17 V Warriors

[franklin2323]

Griffin won't move DWZ. Dallin didn't have one of his better games against Manly but he would have every right to be pissed off if he was moved out of the fullback role particularly given how long he has waited for a decent crack in his preferred position. I don't think he deserves to be made a scapegoat for others who are just not quite up to it.

Remember the cut out pass he threw across the field in the wind to concede a try v Canberra? our back 3 have been poor for a month or so.

I think most people want him out of there also so he can replace Phillips or Crichton on the wing.

Dallin is the best fullback available to us at this point in time, has been close to our best in some of our games other than the weekend, and to replace him at fullback just to address our deficiences on the wing would not be the way to go.

I also recall his running for 250 metres in a couple of our wins.

I said it right from the start, once we had to call upon Crichton & Phillips, after losing Edwards, Mansour & Blake, it would catch up with us because they are average at best. With other injuries and rep football our deficiencies are there for all to see. I still don't see how DWZ should be made the scapegoat. Knowing Dallin he will have a blinder, or at worst a very good game against the Warriors.

I am not saying he should be moved. I do agree he should stay put for the reasons you have just made. Dallin still runs hard and at least gives us much-needed experience.

A small reprieve this week. The Warriors have lost Tohu Harris for a month with a knee injury.

When Edwards played his first game it was on the wing. I would be inclined to try Caleb Aekins there if either Crichton or Phillips are to be dropped but definitely DWZ to be kept at fullback. One reason we were doing so well earlier was the strength of our forwards going forward but at present their intensity has dropped. Hopefully Leota will help in this as will Hetherington and Ellis as they all get more experienced.

Need Shaun Johnson to do his hammy at training during the week.

Bettet yet 5 minutes into the match. Harder to cover then.

 

[Kilkenny]

The pre June 30 release of Tom Eisunhuth to the Melbourne Storm could be significant in so much as it may have allowed us to include another outside back / winger to be brought up into our top squad prior to the deadline.

I'll do it. Was a mean winger/fullback in my day and was a competitive sprinter plus I'll be cheap.

We are missing him and Mansour taking the 1st 2 hit ups of the set. Putting him on the wing solves that. He also won't be made to or feel like he needs to pass he can just run.

For me the bench and back 3 are problems ATM. So why not try and tweek things Atleast until we get troops back

10 more players out and it should be a level playing field

Couldn't go worse than Phillips.

Question? If we do manage to score any trys (or penalties) who do you think will attempt the conversions? Egan?

Isaah Yeo or Waqa Blake. They can do anything.

Any penalty anywhere on the field should be 2 points with Blakes long levers.

I would say CHN but with his groin. Should be Luai

I'm surprised T-Bae doesn't. He does everything else.

I have the flu right now but I am willing to go down to the airport and shake some Warriors hands when they fly in.
