321 Panthers Trial

I'm shocked people think 13 is up for grabs. It's definately aloai he will continue on from last year.

 

[gallagher]

Johns was really, really impressive. Great metres post contact.

Probably the most exciting thing to come out of tonite.

I think Aloiai is more effective off the bench...high impact..less dirty work...well see what Madge does..

Second row prospect

He's a bit of a lump. Have you seen much of him? Can't find much about him online

 

[innsaneink]

Yeah he's a bit of a unit and his post contact meters were good

If he was number 4 he is a player. Best prospect I have seen for a very long time. Played himself right into a center selection.

The left winger looked promising as well in the 1st half

3 Walters
2 Musgrove
1 Douihei

Johns, chee cam, Taylor and Reynolds played well. Tommy T played himself out of the side. His defence was crap. Johns has to be in next weeks side.

Is it crazy to think Walters could leapfrog Reynolds?

It happened tonight. And it couldn’t have been more clear cut.


So we thinking he’ll be the bench hooker?

The side looked so sharp with Walters at 9. When he went off it was very noticeable how poor our attack became

Josh is not a 9. We need to accept that and move on. Madge going so hard after Grant / Mbye next in line shows he knows Josh can't play there.

He will have moments, the odd dart, the odd kick chase...but 90% of his work at 9 is terrible. Can't pass, can't read the play. No game management skills.

Kicked on the 3rd...in a 7 tackle set!

He should never play there again.

Steve ...we didn't score a legal try .....we were as sharp as a butter knife

If I was picking the next trial side - he’d get first chance next week

I agree, plus hon. mention to 'dewey'. I'm satisfied enough that the players I wanted to go well did in fact go well.

Naughty corner for JR for not working on his passing game - will likely cost him a first grade spot.

In his defence JR hasn't passed left to right his whole career. Yet Ivan still overpaid him 200%. My god incompetence all around.

I even like Josh Reynolds and... That is 100% true.
His passing game is pretty average at best. He often can line up with the person outside him, but he isn't a person who would ever move the ball left to right. Which is why I pegged him in at Center, clearly we are overloaded there.

Yet Mbye passes everything. As a halves partnership, Reynolds + Mbye was one of the worst in the league. Yet some people here wanted us to recruit Michael Lichaa into this mix!? Yes I totally bagged out Mbye often, in fairness he as performed better then I expected. Yet playing Mbye as center and Reynolds at 5/8 doesn't make sense except each one has played together often.

Brooks too is a running halfback who plays a very Mitchell Pearce style game.

All of the above leaves us a little headless.

Really not sure why we’re getting analitical about a trial that had only half a dozen established first graders.
