I presume it must be annoying to be proven wrong all the time, but that sounds like a personal problem to me.

Cum sock


Really? Your life must really suck or so far you’ve been a massive failure, that you get satisfaction out of continually talking down to people, that have differing opinions to yours. When in reality all you need is a bitch slap.

Are You blokes joking? French at 6, now I’ve heard everything!


If I’m not mistaken, he’s played some junior footy in the halves. Although it’s a huge leap playing there in firsts. Not sure how he’d go in the defensive line. We have seen him put some nice kicks that have lead to tries. Would BA risk it playing him there?

Lol. Big man.

I only talk down to deadshits. Take that as you will.

Look maybe it would work but with my admitted minimal footy IQ I would think there would be many better options before taking that one?

And no proof as yet that he will be anywhere near the talent of Preston let alone JT. Could be a great outside back...maybe
Well how could there be proof? He hasn't even had a go yet. Campbell was playing reserve grade at this stage of his career and was a fullback. Didn't get a go in the halves until he was about 24. Even JT had plenty of doubters in his early years. And no one is screaming about making this move, we're just speculating.

And my OPINION is that it won’t work, I hope that’s ok with you? Happy to be proven incorrect if BA or any other coach is stupid enough to try him there

Bevan did OK at six in the one or two games I saw him play in the 20s there.

That said I think the extra defensive workload in first grade, coupled with the type of footballer he is, means it probably wouldn't be a viable long term option.

I agree mate, this guy (bazal) is a one of the rudest pricks on here....and that’s an achievement on it’s own. Now we wait for his usual smart ass retort!!!

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not wanting him at 6 or 7. If French is to survive in the NRL at fullback, he needs to bulk up a little more. And I dare say he needs to play behind a slightly stronger forward pack than we’ve seen from parra this year.

It would definitely be less likely for French to get rag dolled into touch or the in goal if he was playing 6. It would also add to our general ability to bring the ball out from our own area.

Typical internet bully/keyboard warrior type. Diff strokes for diff folks I guess.

Lol.

Seems like a catch cry for a few death riding merkins on here.

You want to start throwing shit around, eventually you'll catch it back. Simple.

Perhaps I just genuinely think most of what you say is stupid to the point of deliberate ignorance and can't go unchallenged?

Seems like a lot of people are just bitter that they don't get to whine nonsensically in an echo chamber

He could just do the “play making” role from fullback - saves him from the defensive workload while Ferguson wouId help with rucking it out.
