By no way is Idris overated :laughing: if you want proof tune in at 9.30 this friday night.
Seriously though he has been very good this season for the dogs - why the hate for him???

Daniel Mortimer is about as dangerous as a wet tissue. Idris missed a few games but I think at this stage he is a much better player.

:laughing: funniest post this week. Mortimer is a gun, weighs 65 kg's wringing wet, tackles blokes head on twice his size, runs all day, can kick, pass, run, has pace and can read a game of football. And best of all, he seems to have a bloody good head on his shoulders. This kid is the next big thing.

Mortimer…..............daylight...............Dugan
 
Mortimer will get it and rightly so.

He came up from the 20s and grabbed the opportunity with both hands.

Gees Parra have produced some bloody good junior talent the past few years.

2005 Rookie of the Year: Tim Smith
2006: Jarryd Hayne
2009: Daniel Mortimer?
 
Idris started the season well, then he got injured and when he came back he wasn't as good because his fitness had dropped. He will be a good player again when he gets his fitness back. Could happen pretty soon too.

NRL.com has a poll going:

With just two rounds remaining who is the front-runner for Rookie of the Year?

1\. Jamal Idris - 25%
2\. Kevin Locke - 7%
3\. Daniel Mortimer - 55%
4\. Josh Dugan - 7%
5\. Kevin Gordon - 5%

Dugan is the best of that lot by far.

He's only considered because of the massive media love in after he had early season form. The Dogs score all their points down the other side of the field with Slippery Josh Morris and Lord Bryson Goodwin. Jarrod Croker has shown up plenty of rep quality players in his weeks in the top grade. His schooling of Hodges springs to mind imediately. Does he have a media love in around him? no. Does he do a better job than Idris? yes.

I hope for your sake the Tigers handle him on Friday night.
 
Sooo…....... I take it by all this Moritimer, Dugan, Idris talk..Elmo didn't get a nomination....

Meh..Dugan the best of that lot ...IMO Mortimer close second................Idris.... :laughing:

Gareth Ellis....second rower of the Year......
 
For me the best is Dugan. He always breaks the first tackle, he looks dangerous, supports his players well, makes a lot of metres (Most in the comp i think) and he doesnt make a lot of errors.

Mortimer has had a great year, but i also think Hayne and Fuifui have made him look good too.

Jarrod Croker would be 3rd on my list followed by Idris, Gordon, and then Locke.

A lack of comprehension and an inability to debate a simple topic means you have sfa…come back with a valid counter argument boot off nuffy

Im talking about now, in 2 years time he'll be ineligible for rookie of the year, nostradamus.
 
Am i the only one who thinks this would be a bit ridiculous? I just dont see this guy as physically big enough, a strong enough defender or having enough mongrel to play in the forwards. Its different when ur outwide and you run one on one with someone, but can anyone honestly say this guys good enough to run at 3 or 4 forwards taking a hitup? He will get abolished. And If anyones suggesting a ball playing forward then I dont see that as an option considering we are a side already who plays with 4 ball players in 1, 6,7 and 9.

The other thing about our forward pack, is it is weak. It will be weaker next year too with the probably losses of Payne, Galea, Halatau and Skandallis. While some of those guys werent great, you cant just lose 4 forwards and not replace them.

Our current pack and next years pack has little impact, none of our backrowers are dynamic like other clubs (Ellis is in defence but not attack)…. Galloway is the only good metres eater while Ellis and Skandallis are decent. The problem is when Galloway goes off we never have any real metres in us. So why would we want to throw in another guy like Ayshford I feel, who is just another forward with no metres in him? .

Just my thoughts
 
I hope not.

I think it could be

11\. Ellis
12\. Heino
13\. Flannagan

Ayshford will be a way better centre once he gets an off season under his belt to bulk up a bit.
 
Ayshford didn't really spend any time in the gym last pre-season due to a wrist injury, so no weights on his upper body was the result. He's quite tall and will definitely throw on a few kilos in this off-season coming up. I don't know whether we'll see him at lock next year though. I'd be putting him through a lot of sprint work with a view to keeping him in the centres with Lawrence. If he puts on another 4-5kg he'll be a lot stronger and with some sprint work he could be a bit quicker off the mark etc.

My money is on Flanagan getting the 13 jersey, although he needs to bulk up too from all reports.
 
hmmm i thought we were bringing back liam fulton. wouldnt liam play lock or do you think sheens will start him on the interchange???
 
id prefer see ellis moved to lock and tuaki to the back row… he would give us that go forward we so often need comig out of our own end.... (dont throw stas at me re: tuaki on the wing, i dont care)..

ayshford has shown he's a pretty good player in the centres.. i'd keep him there for atleast another season...
