  • Morris, Manu & Smith - The Centre Dilemma for 2021

    I've been impressed with our backline all year and I'm wondering how the puzzle will come together next year with Billy Smith coming back into the fold.

    Does Billy Smith walk into the team? Does he have to earn his way back through lmited game time on the wing.

    There are a few welcomed selection headaches for next year.

    throw in also the young bloke that filled in on the wing but I think he is a center forget his name has a lot of potential.

        For me Manu is too good for centre. We need to devise a game plan to get him as much ball as possible.

            If the speed of play anything like this year then I bet they all get a fair go. I can see Teddy and Morris twins getting several weeks off to keep them fresh. Come finals time it will obviously be the strongest combination.

                  How good was Manu vs the Raiders btw? His involvement was huge.

                  He needs to play like that more often because when he does he's unstoppable.

                    Oops! Yes you are probably correct on that. My bad.

                      I thought Joey, Teddy, Angus and Kez were the picks of our team in the finals series.
                      If the rest of the team had played to their standard, we would be gunning for a third straight GF.
                      Joey is a big game player - always delivers in the finals.
                      There was all sorts of criticism of him during the season - I knew he would come good.
                      He does not need to get more involved each game as that will blunt his brilliance.
                      Four touches from him will just about result in two tries - that is enough each game.
                      The rest of the team need to lift and follow suit.

                            i liked the way he shifted from right to left in attack in some plays. more involvement, but can be exposed if we lose the ball when he is over the other side
