It's time to blood Mullaney

Ok he might be small but he has speed and I think it's time to give him a go. The way McKinnon tried to get across to Morgan shows his legs just don't have it in them. I'm happy for McKinnon to be on the bench but give Jake a go Sheensy
 
Has Mullaney's form been good in state cup? If so there is nothing to lose in giving him a go, watching McKinnon is torture. Yes, Miller couldn't be any worse than Lui especially if he makes more than one tackle in a game.
 
Mullaney was NSW Cup Representative fullback and was their best player. Tedesco has been absolutely slaying NYC as a 17 year old. We have two ridiculous talents in lower grades that would street any options we have in top grade currently aside from maybe Mitch Brown. But Sheens… well Sheens is a moron.
 
I've seen tedesco in the NYC and he looks a talent, I'd be a bit worried about his age and experience to rush him into NRL and ruin him.
 
Tedesco will not get a run in FG this season. I'd give Mullaney a shot purely for his speed and support play. McKinnon supports well and can hit a hole, but his speed is gone and the only person Moltzen runs off is Benji.
 
Mullaney is worth a try a game just because he is so ridiculously elusive. He gets the ball 20 out from a standing start and just ducks and weaves til he finds the try line. He's a freak. He needs a shot.

Mullaneys been told he isn't in sheens plans and to look for another club.

Really? The kid deserves a chance to try and impress before being discarded….surely.
 
Tele ran an article today suggesting young Sirro might get a call up to first grade at 5/8 before the end of the year, with Marshall shifting to … wait for it ... FULLBACK.

Hahaha.

:roll

Dudes, don't laugh, Sheens may have finally figured it out. Marshall is the worlds best fullback imo. He will absolutely destroy in the 1 jersey. Even his defense is perfect for fullback. The guy puts his body on the line. Remember when he stopped Darren Smith v Broncos in 05? He's done similar many times since. If he does it, I'll be thrilled because it'll be the start of something special imo.

I think he is also the best 6 in the game. I know that we need some spark at fullback but Benji has been the main spark in the team all season and last season at 6.

I'd personally prefer to see Lawrence at fullback but yes Benji could be a great 1.
 
Benji with space at the back = unstopable
is siro more a 5/8 though or ball playing lock, he has the size to play both

I would absolutely have Mullaney and Miller! Though I don't think McKinnon is _that_ bad.

And Miller would have to miss 10 tackles a game for 5 games in a row, kick down the throat of the fullback with every kick and drop the ball 5 times a game for him to compare with Lui.
Talk about tough act to follow!

Give them a go Sheens!We have nothing to lose!
