Tigers halves Mitchell Moses and Luke Brooks believe club is building towards something special

[king_sirro]

If Brooks eliminates all the bad forward passes and hospital balls he will improve dramatically. They look really bad when he does those and they happen way too often.

 

[maxxy86]

One thing I will say is that Brooks and Moses won't play origin in 2017…..no matter how many injuries NSW have. In fact I will also say Teddy will be selected on the wing I believe as Moyland must be in the 17 and probably at 1.

In the pictures I saw there was another WT's player there

I'm pretty sure it was Paseka

Can anyone confirm that ??

I saw liddle and junior junior siro.

Former New South Wales Origin skipper Danny Buderus's fears over the future of the Blues' No. 9 jumper have been alleviated in light of NSWRL's emphasis on junior pathway programs.

Buderus told NRL.com in April of his concern over the huge gap emerging in New South Wales' hooking stocks, with Nathan Peats and Robbie Farah the only two realistic selection options currently.

The Newcastle Knights legend was integral in NSWRL's recent specialist pathways day for players aged 14-22.

Buderus – who ran sessions alongside Andrew Johns, Brad Fittler, Anthony Minichiello and Mark O'Meley – proved a mentor for the young hookers present at ANZ Stadium last Wednesday.

"If you go right down into the 19, 20-year-old players that's where the next crop of good hookers are. They're all young and I'm really looking forward to watching them play this coming season," Buderus told NRL.com.

"Jacob Liddle is showing a lot of potential there at the Wests Tigers as is Cameron McInnes who has just had a big change going to the Dragons so I'd like to see them play well.

"There's a couple of boys who are a few years away but I'm sure they'll hit the NRL scene pretty hard when the time comes," he added.

Whoever it was towered over everyone around them and looked like Paseka

Could be wrong , but it wasn't junior junior Sirro unless he has got some Islander in him lately

In that case, we will lose again.

You really can't keep doing the same things and expecting different results.

I'm extremely confident that the blues can turn it around next season after rebuilding the team in the last 18 months. The addition of Hayne is important also but where does he play?? Add in Dugan also we will have a team full of fullbacks

I think that Moylan if he's picked, will be most likely be on the bench. Although Bird may push him out as he covers both backs and forwards.
Moylan is good when things are going well, but not so much if his team is struggling
Hayne will most likely be at 6 .
if Hayne is FB . Teddy won't be picked.
They won't risk him at wing. Just my opinion

If Teddy doesn't get picked at fullback,then he shouldn't be in the team at all…he is an out and out specialist FB....his opportunity will come and he will be the blues FB for years...

I seem to recall some comments from Daley recently where he mentioned how everyone besides Ted can play alternate positions. He'll be either fullback or nothing. Barring injury, terrible form, or Hayne having a blinder in the first weeks, I reckon he'll get the job.

Ridiculous discussing Liddle, he's played one game. I can see NSW playing a halfback there the way they did in the 90's with Johns, till a young guy establishes himself.

More ridiculousness suggesting playing the best fullback in the game, at least in NSW anyway, on the wing. Why bother?

 

[Russell]

I would expect nothing less than Daly playing Teddy on the wing or not at all.

The guy should not be the coach imo - let alone picking a team.

Moylan at FB for God's sake. As a FB he is not even half as good as Teddy. On the bench for mine and that is debatable.

One thing is for sure , it's a position of strength for NSW , you could pick 4-5 different players in that position and you wouldn't go wrong

Hayne ,Dugan , Trbojevic ,Tedesco , Moylan maybe even Coote to a lesser extent

Teddy will have to be at his best in 2017 if he wants the role

Your dead set right there happy. One thing is that Hayne has played well at origin level on the wing. So it could go
1 Tedesco
2 JHayne
3 Dugan
4 Jennings
5 Ferguson
6 Moyland
7 Maloney

But it all might depend on whether mansour is fit to play ….cause he is a gun on the wing for sure.

Trbojevic over Ferguson if I was a selector , but I don't want to help you blokes too much :roll

Mansour will be at long odds to be ready by SOO
time

Back by May/June at best

7. Maloney
8. Woods
9. Farah
10. Tamou
11. Graham
12. Jackson
13. Frizell

14. Klemmer

[Nors05]

while we are at it, my pick for Blues team:

1\. Tedesco
2\. Hayne
3\. Dugan
4\. Jennings
5\. B Morris
6\. Moylan
7\. Maloney
8\. Woods
9\. Farah
10\. Tahmoa
11\. Cordner
12\. Jackson
13\. Merrin

14\. Fifita
15\. Frizzel
16\. Klemmer
17\. J. Bird

Its a good side, strike players everywhere but halves still weak. Someone has to stand up and own the halves positions (Maloney did but has to replicate '16 form) if the blues are any chance. Moylan is not dangerous enough at 6\. He should be used as a Craig Wing styled game breaker from the bench. Id have Bird instead of Jennings, Moylan as supersub and new blood (Austin, Moses etc…) at 6.
