They have pretty much all played that way, particularly in the 22 season with admin introducing some instability. The game which continues to stand out in my mind for a few reasons is the final game of the 21 season, which saw us get donkey licked by the wooden spooners 38-0.
I think the best option would be to start the game with 3 middles then after 20 minutes or so bring Hastings on to help open the middle up
He is the Fall guy.
Woods was a good player for us, can’t argue with that. But he was absolutely not a great captain. Woods disgraced the club and himself. Being Captain isn’t just about what you do on the field.
Will be hard to trade a guy that doesn’t have much value.
With the shortage of NRL 7s, you would believe he would be playing in the NRL with another club like the Knights.
Like i said, going by your list of players we are short 3 big body props, we don't have Klemmer, Pole is still learning, Stefs form last year was going backwards, and the backups mmmmmmm
Laurie is not only faster, but he is also very good under the high ball and has a very good passing game. This allows him to fulfill the role of second 5/8. The other huge difference is defence. While Laurie has been caught out positionally on occasion, his tackling is very good. For all of these reasons, imo Laurie is our best option but we have signed Staines who is also very good.
Its a tough one. Not sure if he has the pace anymore for fullback. I am just happy he got through unscathed after his injury. He seems unhappy and really unsettled. I like AD but he seems to have alot happening mentally. I think he needs to play centre or five-eight for him to recapture some form.
He is a terrible fullback, just way to slow. This affected him massively in both defence and attack.
Laurie needs to play through the middle a lot more, he seems to me to be a guy that doesn't start the season in peak fitness and builds throughout the year. We need him starting the season in peak fitness and playing through the middle.
