Rumours and Stuff

Hey, it aint the be all and end all, his acceleration means he can get the jump , and his fitness means he isn't that much slower after 80 than he is after 8, and I agree he's fast enough. He's just not really all that fast.

He's no speedster, that's for sure.

 

[Gazzamatta]

He's scored a few good long-range tries - I think he has enough speed, tbh.

I reckon he has looked a tad quicker on the few occasions I've seen him this year.

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

He must be heaps quick because he's usually in front of the guy he's supporting.

He does do that a lot.

Now we need to know who's the slowest.

Im tipping its a dead heat between Alvaro & the snail on the corner post

That;s down to his high workrate running leads through the middle.

Often ends up ahead of the play as the pass goes behind him.

He's like the anti-Hayne in that regard.

Easily fixed, just got to get his timing right.

Avenger could hook him up.

I don't think his timing is an issue, he's just a lot busier around the ruck, and if the ball goes past him, he's gonna be on the wrong side of the play.

His involvement is what makes him a better fullback for mine.

Even if he needs to slow down a little after he's already run through the line, It's still timing. Busy fullbacks like Tedesco and Slater never seem to be in front of the player who made the line break when they are in support.

Gutho has plenty of acceleration, but not a lot of top speed, honestly he runs like a spastic. It's not pretty

he has stamina too ... he can keep pushing along in tht awkward way while other speedier merkins with pea hearts give up

 

[Eelementary]

I love Gutho.

lol Alvaro really shit in your cereal Chief.

 

[Barry O'Speedwagon]

Either way it 'ain't pretty.

I see that the autocorrect function allows the use of 'spastic' but not of 're#ard'

So sick of merkins sledging individual players. Amirite Hiney ?

It’s a f**king outrage I tells ya!!!

I reckon Cheif might be right and Alvaro will start in NSW cup. I'd see it as a great sign that Kafusi,Nikuore and Stone have surpassed him in pecking order. Alvaro is a solid player. So if they have gone passed him it makes ou depth better. Having Taka ,Gower,Alvaro, Terepo as back ups is a great sign

 

[strider]

I hate when we talk up depth pre-season. It usually ends up in tears

Depth is over rated. A very strong 17 is what's needed. And we have it.

Exactly. However we also need to have a relatively injury free season or depth does come into the equation.

But you know this.
