Rumours and Stuff

I may of been drunk.
Mannah is average. Went ok last season. Cant turn a game.

Nah, never said he can turn a game - but he is uber-dependable.

And you need players like that.

Brown’s numbers always look good, but I’m of the opinion he’s stifling the attack somewhat. He’s a sure thing for a fourth tackle hit up within the opposition 20, when we should be looking to attack elsewhere.

Is that Brown's fault that??? Surely the halves and coach should be more repsonsible???

No team in the game takes more settlers in the opposition 20m than us.

Yes we have them in Alvaro and Terepo along with Brown. Mannah most likely is in our top 17 but I think Kafusi may take his spot.
I personally prefer Gower over Mannah.

Paul Gallen says hi .... maybe its not gallen's fault?

Tbh, I do think Gower is a better player - strong defender, versatile, and skillful.

Gallen is the king of all Hogs, he even did it at Origin level. Browny does stifle the attack at times if you can call it attack. Brown missed plenty of games last season and we still took more settlers in the 20m zone than any team in the history of RL.

Well Gal literally over called his halves. Not sure Brown does.

Could blame the hooker for Gal though.

That rings true.

But when I wrote that article, I cross-referenced his stats across various sites, and I found that Mannahs metres per run were still high (just under 9m a run, after discounting kick-off returns, and drop-out returns).

Plus, he is a rock, defensively.

Sure, he is a one-dimensional player, but he is pretty good at what he does, imo.

He's a machine.

And Evans is rated just about right.

And no one knows how Laney is rated cos no merkin will talk about him.

Who?

Burgess only made 7 errors last year -does that mean he only dropped the ball a maximum of 7 times (along with other errors)?

Doesn’t seem that high.

If he came to Parra the other 20 times it was called a strip would be deemed a knock on.

 

[Obscene Assassin]

So...Gurgess, eh?

What would it mean for Kaufusi?

I think it impacts Terepo before it impacts Kaufusi

 

[Eelementary]

Good!

 

[Happy MEel]

I think it impacts Terepo before it impacts Kaufusi

Would also shift Kevans further down the list.

Mannah is up there with players like Finucane and Prior.

He's only depth anyway.

Definitely not in attack, but can a game be turned by a player defensively?

Attack is a lot more noticeable then defensive efforts.

For example against the dogs last we lost the game when Alvaro went off. But if he had stayed on, I reckon we win because of his defensive ability, but wouId anyone have noticed it?
