OFFICIAL Terrell May #296

[Tucker]

I’m a T May fan,
but the middle in Origin is different… it’s all about leg speed and impact at the same time. - our quick middles are too small and out bigger ones are too slow
QLD breed them… Those Flegler, Matt Scott, types…

Terrell is too cumbersome (even in clubland) he’d look like all the middles the blues trot out that no one is a fan of…
Fonua Blake has leg speed and footwork when he wants - but he’s too lazy for Origin.

Hope they make some changes, or get some blokes back - they’ll get torched if they run that out again.
We’ll be patting ourselves on the back for the next 2 weeks - while qld will be seething at being ripped off

100% correct.
May pumps out strong stats, but he really doesn’t have the mongrel and raw athletic ability to play Origin yet.

Could say the same thing about May I used to say about Woods
- if he’s so good,
why isn’t anyone scared of him?

That’s probably a good word for it - Mongrel…
NSW have blokes that have it - they’re just a touch to small… always!!

Terrell should be playing for the Blues tonight.

This time next year theres a chance we have 2-3 players in the squad (when Laurie is no longer coach)

No he shouldnt...it could ruin his career
He isnt suited to Origin...hes quantiry over quality

Haas should be right to go.
Liam Martin also

May is the is the polar opposite of AFB and the furtherest thing from lazy.

AFB - 9 runs, 80metres, 24 tackles
Barnett - 10 runs, 82 metres, 25 tackles

Both played roughly 40 minutes.

What sort of numbers do you think May produces if given the chance? And do you think that extra work will help the players around him be more effective?

NSW need big Props that are hard to bring down and can scrap that extra 2-3metres every tackle. May might not be the fastest, but we get that with Haas. Then you throw in a Brailey sniffing around the ruck and it starts helping the halves find opportunities for the edges

Maybe that will be true but I doubt it.
Personally I think he’ll be another Woodsy at this level. He has too much teddy bear in him. Origin is for thugs ready to street fight.

Props should be Haas & Ford.

AFB was pathetic

AFB was pathetic

Him jumping all over Origin after the rule change made me respect Jahrome Hughes more. When the rule change was first announced and AFB put his hand up, Hughes said no. He said you need pride in the jersey, and for him if he played it would just be a money grab.
