Quite like the idea of mini on the wing as he wouldnt have to pass the ball and could still get into dummy half for a run. Tagive will get a spot without a doubt

[Guest]

it sounds like we are back to the late 80's-early 90's.

we are not much of anything with a mediocre cioach and team but occasionally sign a big name big$ player

You mean we will actually have a winger on the wing? Q'uelle Surprize.

Ryles and Kennedy in rotation looks like a good idea. Would love to see FPN, Tasi, JWH and Mose all on the park at once if only for a brief period. Cant seem to work it into any likelihood though. Henry also seems wasted.

I would hope that "Non-Abo" Henry will get a run.

I haven't seen much of Tagive..If he is fast & good under the high ball,& doesn't panic in defence he is exactly what we need..

What i saw of Adam Henry in NYC was super impressive..The kid can play just about anywhere..Well too..

Mini is too slow for fullback..I never thought i would see the day when your fullback needed to be faster than your wingmen,but here we are..

[Guest]

I just cant understand how we can be anywhere near the salary cap and yet we are unable/unwilling to sign one big name

Very powerful runner. Super quick. Defence is okay and I believe he can catch. His speed is so necessary to our squad that he would get picked with two broken hands.

[Guest]

So do we start to see the makings of a future with all these young colts in the backline to go with our young colts up front?

You are talking about a coach that chose BJ ahead of Linnett and Graham.


Tagive will probably snap in two anyway. He makes Brett Papworth appear indestructible.

We need balance but at what price. Would love to see Henry in the 17, scrap that would love to see him wear the 6 or 7. In current form I think we lack spark. Henry/Tagive are both musts.

[Guest]

Tagive would have to get a spot.

Any player good enough to be first reserve during St. George's run in the past couple of years (which Tagive was), is easily, easily good enough to stroll into our backline.

Not sure that Rylesy is confirmed to go around again.
Cant pick an 18th and BJ misses out. Some ugly decisions in there but we need balance.
