Team for Eels game

[Clintos]

They won't play Moon at 5/8. It will be Fridge or Stagg. That's all there is to it.

 

[lyn]

Yea i no but that is what i want them to do.

 

[spoonbled]

i suppose another good option is to put Boyd at fullback with K.Hunt at 5/8. Can have Stagg,Carroll or some1 like Toupo in the left centre

 

[lyn]

Yea

 

[Clintos]

Hunt is a fullback, or a lock later down the track. He is no 5/8.

 

[Charmamba]

but his a better 5/8 then stagg

 

[Clintos]

All they both offer is defence really.

 

[spoonbled]

Thats why some1 like Stagg would be good at 5/8 to defend the wide plays of mateo and hindmarsh.

 

[Clintos]

Yeah. Besides, Cullen wants Hunt at the back.

 

[Foordy]

Yeah. Besides, Cullen wants Hunt at the back.

but Cullen doesn't select the team though

 

[Clintos]

I know, but he whinges when his money isn't being used how he wants it to be. [icon_lol1. I'm sure he has some say on who is selected.

How can you compare Hunt to stagg in defence. Karmicheal makes 15 tackles misses seven. Stagg make 35+ misses maybe 5 on a bad day.

 

[Clintos]

I wasn't comparing them. I was subtly pointing out they offer about the same in attack.

 

[lyn]

Moon's defence has suprised me.

 

[rnabokov]

I still don't believe Moon is a 5/8. IMO - he is a centre.

In any case, if Mal picks Hunt at 5/8, why don't we?

One minute a FB, then a 5/8 at the top level, then FB. Sounds like a dog's breakfast.

IMO, both the Qld and Broncs selectors should make up their minds, make a decision, and stick with it.

 

[Clintos]

Because Bennett said picking Hunt at 5/8 would be a bad decision by the QLD selectors, so why would he do the exact thing he said was a bad idea.

Fine. Then select Hunt at the back and KEEP HIM THERE, AND STOP STUFFING AROUND.

And this still begs the question - who will be our 5/8, and with Marsh in doubt, our benchie?

 

[Clintos]

I agree with you. I don't want Hunt at 5/8. McCullough would be an option.
