I reckon Zach Dockar-Clay should be given a run He was one of the two stand outs for me from the Magpies game last night. Took control of a team that had 7 last minute changes and made new guys to the team look good.
The main stand out to me was the coach Ben Gardiner. 7 players named on Tuesday not available to play on Thursday as a safety precaution with covid. Only 3 players playing in the position they where named in. Maybe just one day to prepare the new look side. The Magpies in 2nd place played Norths in 3rd place (who had beaten us earlier in the season) and won comfortably. Amazing achievement. Could Madge have done the same? Ben Gardiner has them playing good attacking football along with quality defense.The players love him. He has increased the skills level of at least a couple of them.
If coach's where the same as players I would drop Madge ( I am sure he does his best but just hasn't made the grade) and bring Ben Gardiner up to first grade along with the rest of his coaching squad.
BOLD PREDICTION Ben Gardiner could become the Wests Tigers equivalent of Melbourne's Bellamy. .
