Send Teddy, Lawrence & Anasta to ESL

As far as Tedesco goes, he would be playing first grade at most clubs, with a few obvious exceptions.

He does look rather silly slipping on what I assume are short studded boots. However, I can't recall an occasion when it adversely affected us other than the loss of a few ungained metres in attack, and challenge others to point out otherwise.

I agree with you about tedesco however there was a try last night that was scored because he tripped over. Was in the first half, on manlys left edge (can't remember who got it sorry). Tedesco came across in defence and looked to have it covered, a small step from the manly player and tedesco slips over on his way to tackling and the manly player runs straight past him on the ground. I was sitting right in front of it..

Someone needs to get him a set of long sprigs!

Robbie can be accused of trying to hard.The guy is there week in week out giving it his all. It's those around him that lack effort then execution that are to blame.

Do it now, must be done and do it.

What did Tedesco do so wrong tonight ? I thought he was one of our best. saved a couple of tries..great defence…caught the high ball...no errors.
I am sure Tedesco would look a lot better playing behind a strong pack and good halves like Manlys but his stuck with the Tigers for now...Mick Potter is a smart man I am sure he will focus on fixing that up first.

totally agree…...
 
While I'm not Tedesco's greatest fan, I will say that I don't think he has looked out of place this season.

He seems quite 'safe' on the field- I'm not afraid every bomb will be dropped, or that every half break against us will lead to him being speed bumped.

For a smaller guy, he defends pretty well.

I don't think he has it in him to be a ball playing FB. He's a hole runner. Why does every player have to fit a certain mould? If Brooks, Moses & Sironen, combined with Farah, are all ball players- why does Tedesco need to be a ball player too?

Get him hitting holes & using his speed to his advantage.
 
Teddy is doing all the main things you want from a fullback well

My only issue is he is pulling up when he hits the line , but I'm guessing that is linked to the ACL issues

Give him a full off season and see what 2014 brings

Rowdy unfortunately is a different story , why do many of his defensive lapses and his lack of mobility issues seem to come late in games ??

My personal opinion after watching this all season is his body can't deal with the extra kgs he has put on ,time to make some physical changes to Rowdy and see what happens

And I know I have said it numerable times , but get him to a sprint coach ASAP
 
^ exactly.

He has a good passing game, it has been evident when we've set backline plays close to the opposition try line. It doesn't help when benji is constantly throwing the ball behind him and at his feet.

Hey guys, I did hear he was injured and only playing through necessity.

Apparently he has no acceleration of the mark due the injury, and will need minor off season surgery to fix.

I love the determination, but since there's no chance of the finals, go get it fixed mate.

I thought Teddy played pretty well on Monday Night, but i thought he was still suffering from Turf Toe? & was only playing because of injuries.

no matter how bad teddy is going- he deserves the whole year in the #1.

I don't think he has been great but I would be leaving him there as well. I think he should start at fullback next season also.
 
Teddy no longer flavour of the month, geez we turn so quick… It's his 1st real season behind a beaten pack, non existent halves, all of a sudden he's rubbish?

Teddy is a 20 yo kid…. what would he be doing in the NYC, he'd kill it.

He looks every bit the first grader who as to be expected is still learning. I think we see him improve alot of the next year or too and be a very strong fullback.

Lawrence is playing injured and still offering a bit i think some ofhis reads are not completely his fault, he is following in the player inside him more often than not,
