The decision must be made, who will move to the centres. Tim Simona has more spark on the wing, he is not a creator. Nofoaluama is a creator but is safer under the high ball than Simona. I would go with Nofoaluama at center and Simonaon the wing with them both on the same side. The other side will have Richards and Koroibete, if the defence struggles on that side it would be time to send Koroibete to NSW cup.
Simona or Nofo
- Thread starter Milky
- Start date
id rather have 5 guys for the one position then 1 and hope he doesn't get injured.
There will always be injuries and if their isnt people will just have to play their way into a position.
At the moment id say it's their position to lose on the wings.
Lote Richards whoever will have to play even better and dominate State cup to get in.
and this is what we want for our team after 10 years of playing favourites.

Why does a decision need to be made? Richards isn't at the club yet and Koroibete is injured…If you're referring to next year a lot can and will inevitably happen from now and March 2014.
Every commentator and former fullback I've been listening to rates Tedesco very highly. I think he's been very good in some extremely trying conditions. He has turned into a very safe fullback and his positioning has been good too.
In a bizarre irony, it seems he's coping more flack from WTs supporters. He was built up to be superhuman and expected to make 2 clean line breaks a game. He has some work to do in terms of support play and general ball playing (chiming in to the backline) but all things considered he has been good.
I think Siro is suffering form the same expectations. He has been excellent playing out of position and done a very admirable job with Benji in bad form and behind a beaten forward pack most of the year. When he has a chance to play in the 2nd row and with some time there, I think his game is going to go to the next level.

From what I've seen I'd say the opposite is the case. Simona has the fancy footwork which creates hesitation to the opposition and Nofo is a mini version of Tuiaki who is prepared to back himself one on one against players - Both are good finishers, and both can play centre, wing or fullback. I wouldn't be changing them at the moment though and I don't see why you think a decision must be made to move either one to the centres, because it simply isn't necessary at the moment.

why does everyone want Tedesco to play in NSW Cup. He has been solid in every game he has played and one of our most consistent players. He has just come off a major leg injury last year and is still building up confidence and strength.

I thought tedesco was very good against storm. Awesome cut out pass to noff for his try.

Too harsh on teddy. I was a bit iffy about him a few weeks ago but he is getting much better.
As for the centre / wing issue, there is no way either Simona or noff should be out of the side. Both are performing way to well so I would go with koro and Simona on the wings with noff and Lawrence in the centres with ayshford on the bench.
I just couldn't have either out of the starting side. Particularly noff. It's like every time he gets the ball he is damaging. He is so good.

What is it with tigers fullbacks not being able to stay on their feet? Caine, McDonald. Its a tough position and he's tiny I'm already sick of seeing him getting bashed, I can see him spending a lot of time injured. Wish him all the best but I can't really see what everyone else has.
