Taka

[Bansai Pipeline]

I don't understand why people criticise this guy.

I don't think I've ever seen him have an off game.

He hardly ever dies with the ball.

He's the goods.

When he starts to really find form, look out.

It's only defence, with the ball he is great.

I would have him in my 17 every week off the bench.

[Guest]

obviously have not watched his tackling efforts, go watch them then come back on here and comment

im with you on taka. soo very versatile. can kick, 2nd phase of loads, supprt runner, good reader of the game and knows how to put players in gaps.

[mightyrooster]

Taka is a very gifted and skillful player who can be diabolical in defence at times.

[Danish]

Great player.

with him and Williams running on the fringes next year and popping balls to SKD and Moga we should have one of the best attacks in the game.

Have you seen his defense? Plus consistency is extremely questionable. He drifts in and out of games far too often. Lack of minutes and fitness. Geez where do you start!

[Guest]

He's great in attack, produces some of the best offload but his ability to read the defensive line is really poor.

Taka running and offloading at will one side of the ruck and SBW the other. Options.

[davos]

I think taka will benefit a lot from having SBW in the team. It will be hard though to find a spot for him in the back row if SBW plays there as Aubo, Cordner and Guerra have to fit in somewhere.

Aubbo - can do without him,. he's gone backwards, the others havent.

[stephenj]

some good coaching in the off season will help him a lot, some time with fitzy learning to read the attacking team and set himself up for defence is just what he needs!

[Chook Norris]

Taka.. probably the one player with the most untapped potential. He'll learn a lot from sbw

Personally I'd have next year look something like:

11. SBW
12. Taka
13. Cordner

14. Maubs


Maubs should be sat down over the off season and shown every one of Chris Flannery's games and told to model his game off him. Maubs could be the ultimate super sub, capable of covering anywhere on the field outside of prop/fullback
