Addo Carr signs with Storm...

[GNR4LIFE]

I get flashbacks to John Grant whenever people make a fuss about this kid.

Ken Irvine, Kerry Boustead, Dale Shearer, Larry Corowa, Chicka Ferguson, Marika Korobeite

But as I said with Koroibete go back and look at the RD 1 game v the Saints

The bloke is trying to make tackles from his own in goal

Do some of you actually understand you need to be able to defend at even a basic level ??

 

[Pawsandclaws]

You do know we already have a winger who has no idea of defence? The difference with Koro is he is strong and has lightning pace. Our current winger has no pace but is strong. Answer = move our current winger on and bring in Koro.

It's a lot of cap money to spend on an incomplete player. I'm not convinced it's a good idea.

same story as koro

koro wasnt worth big bucks and JAC might not be depending on how much he's asking for and how good his D is. so far it's seemed better than koro's

koro works okay at melbourne because theyre already a defensive unit with great structure. he would have been exposed so much more at the tigers (and still is all the time at melbourne)

everyone else raves about him because they dont watch melbourne games week to week but storm fans really get how poor his defence is. and tigers fans should but it seems like we've forgotten

If JAC wants to stay with the Tigers he gains nothing by signing with Storm now… If Storm want him their offer will always be on the table

Great , so we are going to spend 380 k on a winger :brick:

Defence starts in ithe middle…you lose the middle your edge defenders will be shown up more often than not...it applies for every team...

Always amuses me when a winger is blamed for poor defence when a try is scored on an edge ...seems the preceding plays are forgotten ...

Defusing kicks is a much bigger issue for a winger...something we are genuinely poor at....

Ken Irvine, Kerry Boustead, Dale Shearer, Larry Corowa, Chicka Ferguson, Marika Korobeite

Hey Mate - you forgot "Daylight" between the last two.

Wouldn't even mention Koro in the same breath myself.

I still watch him play most Saturday's in Shute shield for Eastwood… Mate, he carves it up in rugby..

Yep I remember how he used to basically allow people to pass him & rely on his speed to chase them down. Worked perfectly well until you're defending in your own 20.

Has been coached very well (with the assistance of good support players) since he left WT.

I see Melby have just signed a PNG "flyer". Does this bode well for keeping Addo-Carr?

 

[goldcoast_tiger]

Size means nothing

Dont believe it when girls tell you this

Especially when she is telling you this about herself :laughing:

:roll

Not sure mate.. I didn't think he was from PNG.. Correct me if I'm wrong

JAC is aboriginal not from png

Hopefully a game in firsts today will help to keep him around.

Nah, not saying JAC is from PNG. Just pointing out that if Melby have signed another speedy budget winger, they might not be going after JAC.
