[Geo]

Russell Packer

2 hitups

?

Knee injury

 

[Sabre]

Tier 1 - Simpkin, Simpkins, Cini, Tuilagi, Amone, Seyfarth
Tier 2 - Hoffman, Dias, BJ
Tier 3 - Fitzgibbon, Madden, Cooper
Tier 4 - the rest
Tier 5 - Spud Carroll, but still billion % better than Mr Voss!

I thought Chee-Kam did pretty well too

 

[851]

I think Fitzgibbon has a lot of upside. He has speed which is an asset we have lacked over the years. He reminds me so much of Addo Carr at same stage. I predict a big future for him

Today he couldn’t catch a cold. Needs a lot more practice in NSW cup before you let him anywhere near the NRL.

Agree, he started really poorly with his hands, but he got way better, he has some footy smarts, goes looking for the ball, he will be very useful for us, especially as wing is one of our weak spots

3 Simpkin
2 Cini
1 Cooper

Our defence was woeful.So was Parra’s lol
Amone makes great metres and gets a nice play the ball.
Austin Dias very strong runner with good energy.
Fitzgibbon......Rocks and Diamonds mostly Rocks.
BJ set up tries pretty much every time he got the ball ? still looked like he’d rather be at home watching Netflix.
Seyfarth was very busy also.looks to be building some confidence.
Our halves.....no where near first grade standard.pray for no injuries.

Cini is too slow for the NRL unfortunately.

When did we see him in the open to judge his pace? We haven't. For about 18 months.

He has acceleration which is something, and is highly elusive. May not have length of the field pace, but that still remains to be seen. At the very least could be a similar version to Momo. He has almost 30 tackle breaks in 4 games.

Tom Amone 135 meters back from injury

Remember how easy it is to pad your stats when the opponents kick to you from all re-starts and drop outs. He makes 15m each time and took half a dozen re-starts. That's 90m right there. The other prop could have made similar stats if they kicked to his side, but they didn't. That doesn't make the other prop worse than Amone (or whomever it is each time). You need to compare hit up metres to kick return metres

With our props I’ll give them anything they can use and still be happy with 100
