2020 Round 1 Line up

Hunt why you gotta leave us like that 😭
How many more comps do you think we would have won if he stayed? Surely 2011 (he wouldn't have taken out lockyer... Bloody Beale :p). I imagine he would have been captain possibly since 2011, or at least after hodgo retired.

We haven’t had a star fb of his caliber since I suspect a lot of things would be different. he’d be what 33? He’d still be playing right now I suspect, sad sad times.

Don’t mention Beal to me again please 😂
 
Just watching the Aussie Schoolboys vs the Junior Kiwis and saw SoS at the try line in crutches, he ain't playing for awhile.

Do people seriously think Ponga is a dud..?

I have major doubts over the intelligence of such a person and their knowledge of football

He'd be better at the Broncos (mentioning us because we have the best young forwards in the game and will therefore have the clear best pack soon. He'd also be freaky playing off TPJ offfloads), rorters, storm (until they lose Smith), or a team like Parra who thrive off second phase play. They're trying to turn him into a 5/8 at the Knights: he practically sits on the left hand side of the field in attack and Pearce hogs the ball.

What is with constantly trying to turn gun running fullbacks into five-eighths/halves?

Tedesco, Slater, TTurbo are going just fine.

Munster is ok but not going to likely be as good as he could have been at 1. Morgan, Milf, Ponga, Moylan, Boyd (sorry couldn’t help myself).

Wighton wasn’t a natural fullback so makes sense he is going ok there.

I think it's gun halves are really hard to find and it easier to replace a fullback than it is a half so it's an easy way to keep a good player in the team while adding another.

Yeah it's dumb. Brown comes off as a brainlet though, so he probably bought into the whole Ponga = Lockyer media ramblings.

ponga was back at the back by round 4, brown is a dumb ****, but he fixed the errors of his ways unlike some other coach who played a 1 and 6 out of position for 12 games

Bennett?

I thought you were like his biggest supporter. I seem to recall a 1 (Milford) playing at 6 and a 6/14 (KNik) playing at 7 throughout his whole final year here.

Milford is a 6.
 
Maybe when he's got his Maccas card he is, but coach Seibold very wisely got rid of them. When he's in good shape he makes a fine 1.
No he’s not
 
Milf SHOULD be a fullback, but he just doesn't seem to have the motivation or the speed for it anymore.

He still played Ponga like a 5/8 in attack though. Compare the way Ponga played to Teddy.
