I know we assume that Marshall was only halfback for this one game but it was evident how terrible Marshall is as a playmaker tonight.
Sure he takes some good options occasionally but so does Jarryd Hayne, Darius Boyd, Billy Slater … get it?
These guys come up with big plays on odd occasions and look like champions. If they were stuck in the halves they would be smothered and look poor often, as evidenced on the occasions that Hayne tried to play in the halves.
Marshall, to me, looks like a natural fullback. I've heard it a thousand times. The Tigers would be far better suited with a formation like; 1\. Marshall 6\. Lui 7\. Moltzen 9\. Farah; as it's strongest.
It would be like Campbell at the Titans. Not only would we be creating one of the most dangerous fullbacks in the game, our cover half would be sensational too, as Marshall as a back-up option is far from poor, but as a fullback would be deadly.
Still, dead horse eh? Is anyone ever going to look at Marshall as our weak link. Or are the odd occasions he looks good and competes going to salvage his 6 jersey forever?
P.S I'd like to add I wasn't disappointed with tonights performance. This isn't knee jerk. I, as well as the rest of you I'm sure, believe we were harshly scored on tonight. Our game was a two try loss at worst.
