Idea on how to play Galvin & Latu

[old_man_tiger]

So where is Galvin playing ????

I don't pretend to know what I'm talking about mate, no idea how to manage the egos/salaries/numbers on jerseys. I imagine he'd wear 6 and play similar to how he does now but less frantic and one of the other halves wears 13.

Latu is perennially injured. There is a reason that Benji sprayed him in the pre-season and put him in fat camp. No doubt the guy is supremely talented and his ceiling is enormous. But until he truly puts in the work with his diet and gym work/cardio, he will remain an underachiever.

It’s a fractured thumb, nothing to do with fitness. He has worked very hard since then & has got himself in his best ever condition.

Seems to be injured a lot…I don’t know if training harder will help that or not..…and people want to move him to:13 just to squeeze him into the team … Im sure playing there won’t help injury wise

This is one of those silver linings

Jeez this aged well.

I suggested shifting Galvin wider on the field.

He took care of that & shifted him into a completely different field.

Problem solved- now we know how to get Latu Fainu on the field- my original point!

I'd be playing Galvin in the centres from now on. That includes training as a centre
Why give him any time preparing to play against us in the halves?

Latu in F Grade
Galvin 18th man in reserve grade
No problem

How refreshing.......This is the sort of player we want at the club...Galvin can eat his words...
