Maybe he would be a great dummy half. Just he's probably 4th in line to the throne.

No. Didn't see it. Maybe when you were looking at Tailyn you were seeing yourself. Have you ever heard of mirror neurons? I can tell you what I saw. Just me. A happy bench.

Never said he'd be the best dummy half at this or any other club. He's quick off the mark.

Thanks for the ever helpful input X. One day I'll get into microdosing too and join you chasing rabbits....

 

[TurnStyle]

Yes. A Kodak moment. Heart warming. Will never forget.

You do realise it's not imperative you reply to every post with cynical, self aggrandisement, don't you?

It's boring and comes across as supercilious.

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Very boring. I agree.

That’s a bit of a waste of #741.

Yes & no.

If you play a traditional "this is what a centre does" type game, then yes.

But if you play a guy like Bird in the second row, who can play as a centre as well, you can be creative- the way NSW was creative with Turbo & Latrell playing centre instead of fullback.

No reason a player like Luai couldn't roam the field while Latu plays one side & Galvin the other- instead of having a #13 do the role.

Yep. Play to our strengths. Doesn't gave to be the same formula as every other team.

This is exactly what I always say. Mason is very quick off the mark which gives the impression he is "fast"; That's great, but I'm yet to see him in open space or running someone down.

I guess some see it, some don't, but over 100m I'd say Bula would cover Mason pretty comfortably.

Relevance to league? Well, this comes in when put into a gap or chasing down a winger like Bula has done (e.g.; chased down Katao from Cronulla).

The thing with Bula is physical motion doesn't equal speed - it does give the impression of it though.

I haven't seen enough of him, so can't say for certain about Mason, so I guess not entirely fair, but I'd put Bula amongst the fastest at the club (Staines probably quickest?).

I do like the way Mason goes hard at small gaps in the line. Very direct, every run with intent.

And where does Galvin go , he owns that spot , we need to have all the best attacking players on the field , lock is not much different than a hooker where he will have to fit in to get game time

Why does he “own” that spot?
This narrative is destructive and extremely insular.

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Why does Galvin owe the 2nd row spot?

 

[Odessa]

Oh don't worry- I agree with you.

Personally feel that Latu is the better overall skill player. Galvin in the 2nd Row for mine.

Galvin won't stay to play in the forwards he has stated he's a half

 

[Tucker]

Galvin won't stay to play in the forwards he has stated he's a half

Like Doueihi did that time?
They play where we need them to.

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Roosters agree. Bulldogs and Panthers

Because he has played extremely well since been given the gig , are u just trying to be annoying, because what u posted is crap

 

[Dr_Ice]

Hope is not big, but a sharper pass from dummy half, tackles well and has smarts.
Has outplayed TDS 2 weeks in a row IMO.

Sometimes hard to compare when one starts and the other off the bench. Could be different outcome if the roles were reversed

 

[Vicious]

If you were not impressed with what Galvin done last night, you are very hard to please.
Class with a capital C.
As I’ve been saying for quite a while Latu is on par with him talent wise, I still believe Latu could be an attacking weapon at left centre and slip into the halves when required. He is definitely too good for reserve grade.

 

[Sully]

Klein is never kind too us. The dinosaur has no feel for the modern game and loves to blow the pea out of the whistle… cull the dinosaur and in with the new imo

I’m surprised we won with Klein as Ref and Badger in the box.

Hard to disagree with your Latu thoughts looked dangerous when he played wider last night, expect some resistance on here though, for mine you have to find a spot somewhere in the team for him.

“Extremely well” 🤣🤣🤣
Ok. I loved the spoon he helped us get.
We’ll find a spot for him as he is a talent, but his days in the 6 are numbered. Fainu is the better half.
