To be honest, I was a Dunster fan in the juniors and was thrilled to see him show his potential in late 2021.

I was also happy to see him return this year - but when your centre turns to look for you on a line break and you are not within a bulls roar and are instead appearing to lope but obviously trying (twice), then we had to have hoped he'd been taken out (which he hadn't).

I suggest you watch the replay, because it was a pretty obvious and basic failure. Sometimes a stat line doesn't tell the true picture.

You do realise that some decisions are wrong? You don't have to blindly defend absolutely everything.
Yeah. when dunster first came into NRL, i didnt like what i saw. I called him duster. he was getting so dominated.

Then one year, i think just before the run to the finals, he ran hard and started being safe under the ball and I was impressed.

But today, he is not ready to be back in NRL. He needs to work on his acceleration and speed again. He is not tommy t who can play at 65%.

Those 2 times when Peni was looking for him were tries. Against a better team, these are what would cost us the game possibly

No mate, Im not blindly defending. My opinion is that Russell's errors at centre were unacceptable and we cannot afford a repeat. If I have a different opinion than you, don't take offence to it, don't be shocked and humiliated. How about hardening the f**k up ? Two blokes talking about who should play wing or centre and you're getting all frothy about it. Are you 12 ?

Unless Dunster has somehow overcome whatever niggle he had last week that was causing him to walk and jog in the backfield like he'd had Josh Hodgson's knees transplanted to his legs, then I have grave concerns about his ability marking Khan-Pereira this week.

That was another failure by the Knights last week. It was obvious Dunster was inconvenienced but they sent very limited traffic his way. Admittedly what did come his way he handled quite well defensively. But Khan-Pereira is about 3 light years quicker than Marzhew

frothy? I pointed out the consistently defensive stance you take.

I would say that your response was the childish one.

It's pointless being condescending with me. Argue your point and you have my attention. Deride me and you're not worth my time. You need to get better at this, playing the ad hominem card because you have nothing left makes you look the fool. Learn to control your emotions, Counselor.

You are right

I let myself down - I told myself long ago not to engage you as you know nothing about football - but I ignored my own advice to my detriment

Maybe he need some big man's pants.

Dunsters been shit house. Russels been average. I'd go with Waqa but he isnt fit. Waqa is twice the player of both at this point.
