The Rumours Thread

[muzby]

So far this year he has played
bench
left wing
right wing
centre
fullback
Sounds like a kid demanding where to be played....

Whree coach picks him and where he may be demanding to be played are two completely different things.

Not to mention, the very fact someone has to play 5 different spots when he wants one in particular can be the very reason that they choose to look elsewhere..

Exactly. Just need to take a look at Xerri for example. Big wraps on him as a centre. First 2 or 3 games were average, but showed he had the talent. The coach backed him and kept him in the team. His confidence grew and now one of the most damaging centres around.
McGregor does the complete opposite with Lomax. He knows he has to be in the team but wont back him to play in his natural position, preferring a woeful, out-of-form Aitken.
Logic - Aitken is a good bloke who doesnt complain.

If the rumours that Frizell wants out are true and that he wants to move to Easts, then we should be looking to do a deal this year of a swap of Frizell for Crichton, that is if Crichton would be interested. I rate Crichton very highly. He is a natural footballer and a perfect edge backrower. He has a Union background and debuted for Souths in the centres before moving to the backrow. I think he will mature as a forward. I actually like the idea of a second row pairing of Crichton and Ford. That would push Tariq to lock. That backrow would have a lot of attack in it and a lot of speed too.

Crichton started the year off on the bench and has struggled to find form, but in the last several weeks his form has picked up. There is talk that he doesn't get on with Robbinson.

I know one thing and that is he certainly wasn’t having dinner with me and Ethel , so this story / tale ) chit-chat / rumour MUST be absolutely true .

However IF the dinner did take place one could place their last dollar on the fact that they were not discussing the weather - eh ? It certainly would had been about footy and just how much spare dough that the Tigers had in their piggy bank.

Madge would want to beat the rorters to the punch . Mary would not be in the equation at all as young Lomax isn’t stupid and can see that his future doesn’t lie with a coach whom can not help him advance his career any further. IF the dinner did take place that is . . . .

Was dinner the $10.00 T Bone on Houso pay night

No thanks. Prefer frizz and does not matter who you get the coach can not play them in the proper spot and utilise them correctly.

Frizz is playing well under a $hite coach. Imagine under a decent one....

I think there is a difference from a "woeful out of form Aitken" to what really is a overrated one show pony who can't step, can't swerve, can't pass & can't read a defensive play when required.

Crichton's form has picked up as his game time has increased in Cordner's absence.

No, they're trying to impress potential new employers.

Exactly. He can also play both sides of the field. He may even be better on the left hand side. I would take Crichton over Cordner.

Close , but no cookie I am afraid . It was the ‘ All you can eat for $ 8 Smorgasbord ‘ at the Kandos Bingo night .
All proceeds to the ‘ Sack the maestro ‘ fund .

I doubt Crichton would want to come to play with our side, he played for Souths in 2017 and then moved to Easts, so he has been with two high achievers.
We are in a shambles so I doubt he would come here

Unfortunately you are correct , in fact imo any player that came to the mighty (?) Dragons in our current state would be for the money and that’s about it . I am sorry to say it , but the Joint Venture has almost hit rock bottom .

You really should try it.

It’s great to have a bit of lace on underneath some hard macho outerwear..

It really helps to balance the soul..
