Id be happy to see a 2 year deal, provided it wasnt massive. He has impressed me so far, but at the same time i wouldnt be hugely concerned with locking him down either. He appears to have a good football brain but id like to see a little more before guessing how much he is worth.
Im assuming...
Id like to think fans have every right to air their opinions and just telling them "theyre out of their minds" or "suffering from a head knock" is about as comteptuous as you can get for the people who make it possible for referees, players, officials and even journos to get paid in rhe first...
I think the issue is the speed imbalance between oates and farnsworth. Farnsworth is quick, and agile. Oates takes time to build up speed. As a result , farnsworth usually feels more confident of making a gap himself, rather than passing.
As a result he angles out his run outwards to make gaps...
Well, whatever you did or said to him didnt hurt. He played pretty good last night. Crisp passing and enough dummy half runs to keep the markers honest.
The thing with the broncos is they have never been s side to play prrfect football, even in the days of the walters twins and langer.
They always had their share of dropped balls and missed passes. They are not the storm and never will be. Siebold proved that.
What they used to do was defend...
Its funny what a difference a fortnight makes. Almost the entire team was o the verge of getting the sack, kevie included.
I dont know about anyone else but i would give this spine some time to settle and build cimbinations.
Mam is the only inclusion id like to see, but im happy to wait...
To be honest your last statement makes the most sense to me. Id personally leaves the spine as is. I know it wasnt walters' best game but i think paix cant play 80 minutes and walters provides greater utility.
Id also add that it wasnt just walters but the whole team apart from reynolds that...
Ennis was also a quality hooker with a lot of smarts. He managed to play that way because he knew what was needed, when.
Hodges was the same. I dont know if gamble is there yet but its not like the other contenders for his role have shined.
He wasnt that impressive in his last trial and i...
Did they even watch the game or just grab a brief glimpse of a highlight package?
Staggs was 6.5 at best and isaako a 7 at worst.
Carrigan matched haas for most of the match and that says everything, plus they looked REALLY good with their interplay.
Cobbo was ok and shows promise but there...
I got to admit im super exited to see reynolds in this team. If there was one thing lacking from last night it is composure of a quality half and a pin point kicking game.
Even in bad form (and there is reason to believe he will be in), he's better at those things than any of our other...
Throw hethrington into lock, reynolds to halfback, walters to utility. Let gamble play q cup and show he should be there, along with james.
Kennedy keeps his bench spot, along side walters, robati, palasia.
From what i learned of last night: palasia is a starting prop in another pack but not...
More like post 2006. Even when we made the finals in 2015 we struggled with a lot of that (parker, hodges and gillet aside).
We have haas (and hopefully carrigan) to lead the way and set the standard with the forwards but our backs are crying for a leader and we can only pray that reynolds gets...
Actually that would be a Wayne Bennet special move if ever there was one.
Id approve it but i wont sweat if it doesnt happen. Its a long season and whilst you want to put your best foot forward round 1 to set the standard, maintain the confidence and give something you can build on, there are...
Id say tyrone comes on and billy shifts to hooker to give him a break.
I hope billy is supremely fit.
The other option is they just swap with turpin pushing to 5/8 for a respite.
The question is what happens if he goes down? Hes 31 and whilst he is supreme as far as what he can do, hes isnt immune to injury or crisis. We had 14 players go down with Covid this pre-season.
Someone has do his job, however imperfectly. We cant afford to assume he will play every game this...
I think its a genuine worry we looked lost in that 20 metres attacking zone than either our defence or the mistakes of some of younger players.
Id rather they things and fail in a trial rather than go through the motions.
We seemed to be just using the tackles as weak efforts to try and strike...
I think isaako is the fullback for round 1, with lee and staggs centres and farnsworth and pareira wings. They may go with farnsworth at centre and retain oates but it would mean they are confident in defence but i dont see it.
I think most of the side is settled, and im sure they have already...
