Rumours and Stuff

and the tackles he has to make he misses and that is leading to trys

To be fair he is being forced to make more tackles then a fullback should on the back of the whole team being ripped to shreds.

The Walsh comparison I read on here isn’t too far from the truth, Walsh is poor defensively and he can be caught out of position. Difference being he is in a much better team so he isn’t put in those situations as regularly as what Blaize is now.

Honestly think for now it would be best to be on the wing.
He may get peppered with kicks but at least a fullback can support him.
Too much of a risk being at fullback if he misses more tackles than he makes..
No doubt talented in attack but defensive issues which would be worse if he is at centre which apparently is his preferred position

His positional play, inability to catch a high ball anf poor defence led directly to a minimum18 points last night. We lost by 16. It was a BA brain fart originally that stubbornness would have dictated Blaize remain at 1. BA is gone. Id be flabbergasted if hes selected in the 1 next week. Its not as if that part of his game is improving.
Trent moved on Lussick, he moved on Lane and I reckon he'll move on Paulo and Sivo as well. He proved last night he hasnt approved with BA leniency towards some.

Hands looked so much better than Lussick. Things were slicker and faster.

Kelma was quite good on the edge and Lane much better in the middle.

Although we lost, the use of the players were better.

I wish we had a player who tackles everything effectively and has a big motor. Don't care if he is not good at attack.
Maka fits that role but defense is not good enough..actually someone like Ray Stone. Is Guymer that guy?

Joffa is close.

Warren smith just said Blaize has now activated his option for 2025

I haven’t seen this confirmed anywhere???

Option expired so how can it be exercised?

This is almost a free swing for Barrett. I’d take any changes he tries with grain of salt.
Plus it also helps when the like of Sivo & Paulo finally at least try to budge the thumb they’ve had stuck up their clackers for 18 months

Joffa is close.

Dont think his motor or mental concentration is good enough.

Someone like Ray Stone, Dale Finucanne, Hindy

I see he got a promotion to the coaches box last night. Must be next in line.

I was sad to see Stoney go - loved him.

A bit f*cken’ harsh mate. Those witches hats don’t put themselves out!

Yeah I wonder how Stone would have gone in our team now. Disappointed we let him go, he may not have been the most talented player but he put in and has the mongrel we lack.

There is someone who coaches defence??

Murchie cost more

 

[Zoso]

Murchie cost more

So we spent more on Murchie than it would have cost to keep Stone? Bizarre.

Yup.

 

[Eelementary]

Murchie cost more

And was a way worse player.

Two players I was sad to see leave, but I understood why they left, were Ray Stone, and Marata Niukore.

Atleast they shared an opinion . I get more frustrated that after a loss that sixties guy just shuts down. No analysis, minimal breakdown of the game, no 3 2 1s. What the point of even doing a podcast?? Put that clint guy on instead

I tried the podcast plenty of times but 60’s inflated ego is so cringe. “Gentleman my phone, email, DM’s are just going off at the moment, I’m sorry I can’t get back to you all.”

He thinks he is Phil Gould. Mate, no one cares how’s your weeks been when you ramble for 15mins before talking about Parra.

I like John, although his constant inability to pronounce “th” is enough to make me steer off the road. “I feel for Arfer dis Fursday night”. Ahhhhhh!

And Clint? What is his purpose exactly?

I travel a lot so really enjoy podcasts and they could have a good one if they just spoke about footy.
