Teddy at 6?

Poor defender with an "I am" personality, gauranteeing the outside backs would recieve no clean ball.
I like the wing suggestion.

Can't close your wingers out on the sideline if you are the winger.
 
I like it, but only if we get lolohea. That way we can get a headstart on 2018\. Teddy looks tired and slow so we couldn't do worse then what we are doing now.
 
In all honesty, Tedesco currently is either playing like he doesn't want to be here / lost interest, or he is way out of form or even worse carrying an injury. The last few game he just hasn't been the same Tedesco that we are used to seeing. I think he is really lucky to have been selected for State of Origin.

I'd still leave him at number 1, he just needs to time his runs into the backline a little better. I love when Brooks puts a cross field kick in for a flat-out Tedesco coming through close to the line .. haven't seen these for a while. In saying that Brooks needs to step up and take full control of running the plays for the remainder of the season .. wouldn't hurt if he goes out of his comfort zone to try.
 
Sure, Teddy has been struggling lately but I reckon the only spot for him is fullback.
We know what he can do from there when fit/in form so work around him at FB.
He's an unknown in the halfs so don't weaken one spot attempting to strengthen another.
I don't think he's dogging it like Moses was. Trying to put in but something's wrong.

Sadly Tedesco is not the player he should be at the moment, but is a fullback.

Reckon Brooks will be really good if our pigs can get close to matching opposition packs.

Lolohea is WT version of the Easter Bunny, often spoken about but never actually seen. Would be best to put our eggs in another basket so to speak. Hopoate, Cody Walker or Alex Johnston.

Amen to that! Add Michael Gordon to that list also.
 
I suggested Ivan to have tried this in the second half of the rabbits game…would have been an ideal time. Yes I think its a gd idea but don't think its in the coaches plans.
 
unfortunately many on this forum suffer from untreatable, inoperable, late stage Sheens syndrome :bawling
like Ryan to 2nd raw, Lawrence, Ayshford and Fulton to 5/8, Lovett to center, anything but common sense - replace like with like :crazy
 
Tedesco is being heavily marked. We should be designing plays that take advantage of the space he is creating for other players.

Could be as simple as pass it to someone else…
