Angus Crichton

[Rooster_6]

Robbo also dropped him I think last year , could be wrong but .Seems to have worked well for him and also for Kyle this year

He never got dropped but Robinson did demote him to the bench during the middle of the year to play lock & then gave him another run of half a dozen games in the starting side at 2nd row before putting him back onto the bench for the finals series where Aubo started in the 2nd row.

It makes this year so interesting because he was genuinely so good when he was shifted to lock forward as he was last week Vs the Raiders. He was just about best on ground Vs the Storm in that prelim final last year.

Robinson has got so many good options it'll be interesting to see what happens. If he doesn't play in the 2nd row this week I think we'll likely see him remain at lock forward which I'm personally really excited about, I think he takes our forward pack to another level if he plays there.

Cords would be lucky to play 15 games a year so I think the Roosters could balance Cords, Gus & Sitilli quite well. What’s the story with Sitilli & Cords contract?
Are they under contact & for how long?

That's a lot of money tied up in the three players though.

Angus is up next season.

Sitili is up next season.

Cords is up 2023.

The way Cordner plays, he might be busted by 30. Crichton is entering his prime and Toup2 has the potential to be another SBW. Prioritise Crichton and Toup2.

I don’t think Sitilli would be on more than 200k & if his contract is not up till next year then I think the Roosters could work out something to keep the 3 of them especially since SBW & Aubbo won’t be around after this yearI don’t know if Cords will make it to the end of 2023.

Crichton has enormous legs and can ball play. Could play anywhere

We played him at centre earlier this season and I thought it didn’t suit him at all so we can cross that one off

Do you think he could leap frog Manu as our 5th in line hooker?

Sure, why not. He can ball play and has mean defence

When Aubo is done, Angus and Sitili are next in line. Can play either side, hit a hole

I just feel Angus is wasted out in the centres, he can offload and tackle break and takes a lot of pressure off the boys in the middle with his efforts on defence.

I was pumped when we signed Angus cause when watching him at Souths he was very good with the ball. He came to us and never utilised his skills. Also his offload ability seemed to have gone. Seems after the Canberra game we are seeing there is more to Angus that just a battering ram and tackler.

Even busted we have to pay him.

not if we get Greenturd and Souffs to send us the 'medical retirement' template
