‘I’ve learnt more in 12 weeks than the last five years’: Reynolds hails Ciraldo effect

Josh Reynolds will wear Bulldogs colours for the first time in 1988 days when he starts at five-eighth against Canberra on Sunday.

www.smh.com.au

Grub said he learned more in the last 12 weeks with Ciraldo than he has learnt in the last 5 years, no surprise he learnt nothing off Madge

That assumes Josh was fit enough to play (I'm assuming the coach doesn't talk tactics with the Rehab Group) or he didn't get a tad chilly sitting on the sidelines AGAIN! If I was Josh and my life was the shitshow his was I'd probably just sit quietly in the corner hoping no-one noticed me.

Crawling up to the new coach to get a gig?
Josh plays one way… nothing will change that.

After the next trial, i'm sure of one thing, most of the current opinions, will change.
The first trial was no indication of ability, too many nervous kids, and no direction.

Sukkar?

Headgear in trial.
Was one of the better players in that woeful game.

Ah yes. He is a big body and fairly willing.
If he can up his leg speed, he certainly has something to offer.

A red line through Talau's name a tad early I feel. Not saying he should start round 1, but think he has a lot to offer.

I'm in strong disagreement.

Long time off though so hopefully he can come good playing NSW Cup and force his way into the starting 17.

Not sure why we persist at centre maybe time to go into forwards?

He was very poor, imo, in the trial.
Albeit he is probably rusty from lack of game time.

I think backrow in cup, see what he can do.
He isn't a guaranteed starter in grade, for mine.

Maybe but the problem is he along with Blore have been talked up by Sheens and it's stupid. These guys need to prove themselves in reserves and when they show they can defend and attack then they should get their shot.

Blore can defend. He is one of the better defenders I've seen especially considering he is learning the game. His line running is also one of the worst I've seen.

Talau has made some decent hit-ups but he is miles away from being ready and he needs to develop his game.

I think the lack of match fitness in some of these boys makes them look tardy? Particularly with Blore and Talau who have not played in a while? Talau was never up with the rhythm of that game, but he does have talent. They can get their fitness playing cup.

I don’t know how you can slot someone into game 1 who hasn’t played for 500 odd days and looked well off the pace against trialists/reserve/dev players.

TT isn’t a game breaker either. It would be high risk low reward approach if we did it. Play him in Reggie's for a month and see how he responds.

 

[happy_tiger]

It's close but To'a has proven himself much more in the top grade.

Who is the better defender ...most important question
