Linnett > All our backs bar RTS

[davos]

Anyone who thinks that Linnet is better than SKD, or Moga and RTS, is kidding themselves. If we had thursto, Foran, or DCE in our halves then we would truly see the potential of these guys in space. However until next year they will continue to do crap with crap service from our "SPINE"

Our spine has scoliosis.

Watch the cowboy's fast passing in the backline and they way they scored their trys, its like clockwork. I cannot remember one backline shift from us this season which led to a try. I think I can remember once FPN standing at first receiver and getting a quick movement which led to a try but other than that nothing. Most of our trys have looked like two ugly people making out...

Alot of good points boys, cant agree with Adam Reynolds, being more then a solid first grade halfback, the halves is Souths week point against the gun sides, Sutton has always been a poor player, and buckles badly when the blow torch is applied.
Last night, Kennedy had a brain snap, that cost us dearly, when he jumped on Blair and roughed him up, all he had to do was place a hand on him to complete the tackle, Parra, had already spilt the ball, we were going to get the feed in the scrum, what happened, we got penalised, and they scored again, and down went our heads.
Moga is not ready for first grade, his defence is terrible, and he doesnt try and get involved in the play, all the really good wingers, go looking for the ball, when its not coming their way, Taka again missed a vital tackle by a whimpy grab at a Parra player, that again lead to a try, he really must get his defence in order if he wants to be any hope of playing first grade next season.As for Mini, Politis really needs to tell him, if he doesnt go of his own accord, we will be sacking him, apart from taking bombs, he wouldnt hold down a spot in the local A grade comp, he is terrible, its an embarrassment watching him play, and I get no joy in saying that about one of our best ever players.

Roosters 6, lets be realistic here. rts is only 19 and only started playing league about a year and a half so far, and he done better than most of those FG player for his last 3 games
He's struggle because of the pace of the FG is 10 x faster than the 20s, believe you will eat your words comes next season and hope you played better than rts.

Don't worry we know that mate, everyone on here loves him. RTS has been very good and he is still learning the game. Even though he is still young and learning he should be there ahead of Mini.

Linnett under Smith in this team would be useless and wed all be asking how he keeps getting picked. Good on him for jumping from this sinking ship of a football club.

[TDK]

Oldfield? LOL he isn't anywhere near the talent that Linnett is. He can't even nail down a position on the wing for Manly when Taufua is there and he too is dog average.

Unfortunately, Maloney has proven to be a one year wonder at the warriors, I really think this bloke is overrated, inparticuar with the benefit he will bring this club.

maloney is not a superstar - thats no secret. what he will provide is some speed, spark, a sharp-shooter and someone who can take some pressure off pearce. he is no one season wonder imo. he has been consistently good for the warriors since he won over a permanent spot there in the halves a few years ago. it just took the papers and everyone else until a gf appearance to realise

Mate so do I. His biggest assets in his game won't help the Roosters next year imo. You guys want a playmaker that can get quality ball to your outside backs and sadly imo he doesn't do that very often. He is however very good at running lines off the forwards. But other then Taka and Cordner there are no other forwards with decent ball playing ability unless you get SBW ofcourse.

He is only coming sixth in the comp with 19 try assists.
Get a clue before you come trolling around here cowpat...

Really? Those guys have been there for quite some time and have failed to deliver yr in yr out. cowboys would have to be the biggest under achievers of the league.

I agree but we have had some truely shocking outside backs and forwards that have been highly over rated(when signing or extending their contract with us) over the years in Webb, Kaufusi, Manoukofoa with Bani and Williams in the backline to name a few.

Also Mango's 2 serious leg injuries halted and almost ruined his career (was first guy to undergo the procedure he did on both knees) that has finally recovered and he is back to one of the best fullbacks in the comp. JT has also had his fair share of season ending injuries aswell. Ofcourse that shouldn't be the mentality of if we lose those 2 players we are gone but that is certainly what the players have had over the years. These last couple years has slowly changed with us winning more games then losing when JT hasn't played these last 2 seasons.

2 finals series in a row now so Henry is buiding for something in the very near future.

Yea and Pearce is up there to with try-assists doesn't make him any good does it.......... He has been ordinary to say the least for 99% of the year.

[Guest]

For all SKD's shortcomings I'd still take him over Linnett.

The rest are all unproven at this level so it's no real surprise, especially RTS.

Watch for Ashley Graham's best Minichiello impression in the finals series though, there were more signs of just how inept he is tonight but no doubt overlooked by the coaching staff due to the impressive win.

I'm glad you love watching tries conceeded down SKD's edge i'll gladly keep the guy that can defend 100000 times better and has more linebreaks and tries in attack this year to go along with it thankyou.

Graham has fixed his game up alot over the last 2 years had one little incident where he took too much time picking the ball up but ayy for once in the cowboys it was safety first. Plus he has a better passing game then Pearce haha, look out for that lovely right to left spiral pass in the cowboys 3rd try, something Pearce would marvel at haha.
