Team v Knights.

Forgot about Montoya

So, we are looking for more than a patch job. We need someone to settle into this role for half the season. Perham? Pompey? Turner?

Is this where we wish we had Keighran?

He wouldn't be much good, has a broken arm or wrist from the weekend!

 

[SpaceMonkey]

I’d love to see Turner get some decent game time if he’s going to be Roger’s successor. But can he play centre? I’ve only seen him mentioned as a FB or half.

or Herbert?

 

[Meth]

Sounds like it will be Pompey

 

[JJ]

or Herbert?

Yep while we recruited well those are two that I’d have kept. Keighran for versatility and he just looked a capable footballer, and like many I just liked Herbert... although less versatile and with Aitken and Hiku not likely to play... nek minut

 

[Campion]

Aitken out for half the season!

Nooo!! How unlucky. I felt confident on our edge defence with him there.

Both Keighran and Herbert were good goalkickers too.

Time to add some X factor to the team - bring on Turner

 

[Fufu Andronez]

Brown was on triple M on Sunday and said if Aitken wasn't right then Pompey would get the spot

 

[Wheeled Warrior]

Pompey deserves his shot and was unlucky to be pushed aside in the first place. He played tremendously towards the last half of 2020. I like his frame, speed and balance despite many not rating him on here. Good opportunity for Pompey to cement a spot.

I'm one of his deathriders -- i think i thought he looked pretty slow. Willing to give him a 2nd chance tho

 

[Meth]

I think Pompey did an ok job last year and got better with game time

 

[Big Marn]

Pompey in for aitken. No other changes.

Hard to change the 17 as they played so well and who would you drop but I would like to see Murchie in the 17

Evans struggling to break into the 21?

 

[JJ]

Evans is bench only imo... Regardless I’m not convinced he should ahead of the middles in the 17

With Perham getting first shot at fullback in reggies, is that a glimpse into the future? Being groomed to take over RTS?

Yeah that’s interesting... you’d have thought the front runner would be playing 1 there or on the wing in first grade...
