Round 7 vs Souths

[herbert henry1908]

Yeah how likely is Ivan to start him somewhere though? Particularly with a winning team.

I can’t see us going through injury free. Something will happen to open up a spot.

Is it bad if I say good? I don't want it but anyone other than Cleary and we improve the backline lol.

 

[betcats]

Just get Burton in there somewhere, he is too talented to not be in the 17. Get him in at centre or wing, he will push his way into the halves or even fullback eventually. He is 100 percent the type of young talent you have to find a spot for or let go so I really hope they have some plan for him.

 

[murraymob]

James Roberts on the bench is a interesting choice.Could be a master stroke or a huge fail.When he is switched on he is lightning but will he be coming off the bench

 

[Luke Bowden]

Which would be bullshit, if that happens.

Why would it be bullshit?? May is a very good footballer that’s played a lot of footy with with almost the entire spine.

 

[franklin2323]

We have had a good run with injury. That will change then guys like Burton, Leinu etc will get a run. Hard to change a winning team

Because Burton is a rare talent, and May hasn’t played FG in 20 months.

He hasn't played for at least 18 months, and what he did to that poor woman, is unforgivable.

What about what Matt Lodge did to that poor family?

 

[herbert henry1908]

Some people seem to think it May is on the bench he’ll automatically be used more, but I’m not so sure. Last year Luai was on the bench for a few games and was hardly used at all. And even with May’s capabilities go play back row, that may not be needed either. We have Burns on the bench, and JFH can shift back to lock if needed.

what about it? That’s another club’s decision

 

[franklin2323]

of course it was but you can't say what May did was unforgivable when people are playing that have done just as bad if not worse.

The question is should May be in the top 17 on playing ability

You can, actually.

New standards are introduced all the time.

And then you fall behind others.

Imagine if the Roosters let Friend go after his issues or Storm got rid of NAS for his brawl on holidays...While ever the NRL allows such players to be registered you are only hurting yourself if you don't pick them

 

[ACTPanthers]

My pessimistic stance has seen us win some games... WE'RE GONNA GET SMASHED!!

(I'm actually quite confident we'll play well and win this one pretty easily, but I'm not saying that..)

Not necessarily.

By keeping Tyrone May we may be inviting more trouble down the line with other players. Ie. They’ll see that they won’t get sacked even when they’ve been convicted of a serious criminal offence.


I mean Tyrone May isn’t a hill worth dying on anyway. It’s not like we’d be losing some star of the game.

He should have spent time behind bars, and given a life time ban from the game.

I don't know people seem to be keen on punting Burton for May based on social media.

 

[ACTPanthers]

I'm in agreement with Herb here - May hasn't been on a field for a long time so we have no idea about his form.

Any club could say that same thing though.

Not a star but a good solid squad player.
