Lawrence Change

he should come back through state cup.. his confidence is down and somehow it's affecting his defense as well.

you can't kick someone out of the squad completely if they are out of form. im still hopeful that he will come back into 1st grade after re achieving confidence and fitness through state cup.. no one should be ruling him out yet
 
I'm a fan of Lawrence, but teams are targeting his weak defense. His attack has dropped off, apart from the two tries were he ran over Sandow, he is a shadow. The hard part is he's been at the club for a long time, was to be our centre for the forseable future. He is West Tigers through and through. But so were Chris, Bryce and Beau. The team needs to win to get people to the games, sponsors, supporters etc… If Chris is part of the problem, which unfortunatley he is, he needs to be moved.

As far as a second rower or lock goes, I can see where you are going with it and it may work, but how many locks do you need. If seem everybody that doesn't fit should become a back rower. We do have plenty of stock in the back row and even though they are not killing it, I still think they are a better choice. Sorry Chris, but like the above posts, something needs to change.
 
Players need to be put on notice when their form drops and they are not performing. The threat to demotion to lower grade should be enough fear for ANY player to lift his game.
People critise Utai but at least the bloke runs hard and as fast as he can straight towards the opposition try line.

CL needs to snap out of whatever daze he is in otherwise he wont be any good to us regardless of where we put on the field.
 
Gee this was a hard post to make as I really like Chris Lawrence but he is having a woeful season and his D is terrible … I hope he finds form when he returns

I've been saying that for ages. He has the ability to be successful in the back row, probably lock. Give him the summer to build up and let him try and re-invent himself. He deserves a chance to do that before throwing him out with the garbage

Thankyou!!!!!..Hope the ones in the know at wests tigers agree…this guy deserves to be perservered with.

Hell, we have put up with much worse
