Doueihi

[cochise]

Douehi will fill out into a huge lump of a lad, he will be a big physical presence in 2-3 years. Be interesting to see where he finds his niche. Was great last night, been one of our best all year.
Would like to see him work on his passing game in the off-season and see how he goes at 6.

Yeah but if he loses what speed he does have ...he's finished

Of he bulked up he wouldn't be to bad a second rower. He has excellent footwork at the line and runs good lines.

 

[Fade.To.Black]

He certainly looked more dangerous with the ball in the centres. He's an interesting player because he's easily our best under the high ball, and has made plenty of kick return metres, but lacks the outright speed to be a constant threat at fullback. His build and running style is more suited to the centres but I think he could make a go of it at 6.

It's obvious that Reynolds is on the outer and with Benji gone next year, there's an opportunity for Doueihi at 6 - I think we have enough centres on the books that we'll see him at 6 next season.

I believe the club's plan is for him to play 5/8th but I dont think he and Brooks will be a good combo. Madden and Duoeihi may work but then we are back to 2 inexperience players playing in the halves and I don't like that either.


what's your suggestion based off current roster? Mbye?


Still prefer to off load him for the $ he on does not add much value, Played better at fullback last night with kicking game but still suss under the high ball, pass mark last night.

If Madge does retain him need to ensure is not Captain and maybe a good bench utility player.

AD should remain at centre, took Madge a long time to work out that's a better position for him than fullback?????

I don't know if it took him a while to work that out or if he was just the safest option in the role, Doueihi won't make many mistakes at fullback but he just doesn't have enough in attack.

That's the conundrum. Douehi is safe as houses at the back under the high ball but pedestrian in attack from the back. Mbye is better in attacking from the back but Edward Scissorhands under the high ball.
Any way we can play Douehi at FB in defence, then swap with Mbye when we have the footy.

Just move him into the forwards that's a natural transition from Centre once they lose some speed.
I do like his height and hands with that cross field kick its hard to defend against.

Yeah he added a lot as a kicking target.

Spot on, i actually said last night that together that would make a great footballer. But I guess that's our problem it take 2 guts to do the job of one.

Easiest solution would be to just hammer Mbye with high ball practice in the offseason. Get him catching 200 a day, if he can rectify his dropsies he makes a pretty good FB. Douehi looked pretty dangerous in the centres, probably our best outcome.

100% mate, pretty much what I said in my response to what to do about our halves for next year if we have to run with players we already have. Mbye is pretty dangerous at fullback and that gets us the most return on the investment we have in him. Doueihi is an excellent centre and will only get better.

 

[Strider]

So where does Momorovski play if AD is center, 2nd row off bench? AD did seem more exciting.

That is a really difficult question, I honestly believe we need an upgrade in the halves for next season but if I had to go with a combo that is already here I would trialling Madden at half, Brooks at 5/8th Doueihi in the centres and Mbye at fullback. I do have concerns with Mbye under the high ball though so he would be catching bombs everyday over the off-season.

Interesting if we secure Addo-Carr as a fullback:
Addo-Carr
Nofoaluma
Doueihi
Leilua
Talau
Brooks
Madden

No room for the skipper!!

I would have AJ ahead of Talau. Mbye to 14. There is always injuries, form slumps and
B J suspension so you need depth. Momo and Talua are great depth.

 

[Telltails]

I'm a fan. We have had heated arguments about him in this household - half of us say he is too slow the other half see him as one of the few in the team that can break the line and does so every week. Now he can add goal kicking to his talents - all at 22. Great signing.

Do you think Willow that Adam may still be carrying an injury and hence his lack of speed or is he just one paced...

He's certainly not at full speed due to his ankle but he also played with less strapping last night and he can be elusive and hard to handle as his run in the lead up to Nofoaluma's third try showed. He is a bit one paced though but his footwork is good.

Mbye to me is the ideal 14. He can do a job at 1, 9, 4 or 6. Based on who we have next season I'd be looking closely at Doueihi and Mbye for the 6 jersey.

Agree, Talau hasn't looked up to it for me. Good for depth though.

Mbye is a bench utility.

 

[Strider]

Mbyes best spot has always been utility, including Bulldogs days. He is probably the best bench utility in the game.
