OFFICIAL Simon Dwyer [Discussion]

I thought it was a bit worrying a few weeks ago when Ellis played that he wasn't running the angles as he did so effectively in the latter half of 2010\. Instead he started to try and put a step in his run and also looked to offload which normally, he rarely does. A fantastic honest forward that doesn't need to do anything fancy except time his runs, pick the angle and tackle hard. Dwyer needs to take a leaf out of Ellis' book and do the same. However the difference I think is that Dwyer has more pace and and is still young enough that he can be a flyer out wide as well. Can't wait to see them all on the park, fully fit. The 1,6,7 and 9 are warming and when you get the likes of Lote, Lawrence (hopefully), Ellis, Dwyer and co hungry, game on boys.
 
Dwyer 80 mins added nothing to the game. Has no idea without Benji putting him in a gap & no idea in defence.
 
In his fairness we didnt see much ball first half and in the second half im sure he played half of it with a stuffed knee which he copped in the 52nd minute. He looked like he was running on one leg after that.

He also had a good game in city country without benji
 
I don't know if its just Benji, but he does need a half to direct him around a bit I think. In Country vs City Pearce really played well with Dwyer, and directed him down that left side very well.

Any decent 5/8 will put him thru a hole…he hits the gaps well when the forwards are on

souths had him well marked tonight whenever he got the ball. He missed a few tackles which didn't help.

Not Gonna Happen,

WT are the future.

I think you jinxed us :laughing: Unfortunately after this weekend you can reverse those sentiments.

That statement you could say about all of 'em

Yes souths were on in the first half and we weren't. Dwyer's usual run onto the ball close to the opposition line which has resulted in him smashing over for a try in other games was well stopped last night, they clearly were ready for him.
 
Guys the boy was bunged up with flu had missed training and did not appear at a team function during the week. He will be fine just don't be too early to judge…..
 
The arm grabbing utterly innefective defence week after week is more of a concern to me.

That and Sheens plays the one backrower utterly incapable of 80 quality minutes for the 80
 
He even injured himself in the second half and was limping all over the place yet still stayed out there because of our DUMB interchange system.
 
For someone who has been sick all week with the flu and gets injured in the game and plays on, is not all bad in my books.
