Offer something out there more than just solid defence
Pretty much this. Oh course every side needs squad players but I'm yet to see Mav really do anything at all. Maybe he's a middle?

I can almost guarantee, with a fair amount of certainty, that Mav is playing as he’s been instructed.

Can’t you guys see the similarities in development between himself and Marto. It seems to me that Mav has received exactly the same instructions that Marto did.

I've yet to see him hit anyone like Marto....well Marto only does that for NSW these days

Mav is twenty three.

Forwards can mature late but all I've seen from him in first grade is piss weak carries and non dominant tackles.

Maybe he can turn it around but he doesn't seem to have any outstanding physical attributes.

He doesnt stand out in cup either which is the most concerning thing.

Im almost certain ivan isnt instructing him to go out there and plod lol..

Yeah the instructions may be simple from staff but fmd your in fg mav. You can run hard and hit hard for cryimg put loud.

Can you elaborate? Martin is high energy and line speed who you accept a few errors from. I don't really see that in MG 2.0. If you'd said he's meant to be quiet and consistent I'd understand more.

Exactly. It isn't like he is carving up yet down there and can't put it together yet in the top grade

Top grade numbers this will be his 6th game.

0 errors
0 offloads
0 linebreaks
1 tackle bust

Luron for example in comparison has 3 tackle busts. I doubt rookies off the bench have been told different things

Henry backrow mmm.

Load up on overs. I think we will see a lot of points tomorrow and that makes me happy.

Hopefully like this game below. Who remembers?
