Tyson Gamble Debut

@ said:
Thinking more about this it seems a very strange time to be blooding a rookie in a crucial position, there seems to be no reason for it and we are still hanging by a thread for a finals position.
Tomorrow's game is crucial after 3 losses to top eight teams from our last 4 games… It's really a must win against a team out of the eight but right up our clackers.
Mystifying.

Throwing the year away.
We're done.

I really don't get what you two pessimists are on about. Moving ET from hooker can only help us. Having an extra player with a sensational attacking game can also only help us. Imagine having a 5/8 who has the ability to run, pass and kick the ball.

Demps, we know you have some abnormal dislike for gamble. But he's leading the ISP in try assists. It's not as if he's been struggling.

Nows the perfect time to give him a chance. Benji out. Liddle not fully fit yet. Our attack has been struggling and he could take the pressure off Brooks when in the opposition 20.

Rip in young man!

This is a move that states our season is over and we have no finals expectations.

Hope Gamble makes the most of this.
Wish him the best, get to see how he plays with the big boys. Hopefully better than his cup performances.

Don't agree. This is about whether we need RF or upgrade Garner before June 30.

You can move ET with MM…we have a 5/8 who can run, pass and kick the ball.
Reynolds.

You may see me as pessimistic, I just see it as a bit pointless...I really havent seen that much from gamble in attack in reggies to make sense of this.
We still dont know who is out.
Hope he goes well.
Time will tell

Almost agree totally except we are not hanging by a thread - we are 1 win out of 8\. This is a must win game

I'm with you Balmain Boy, I don't get it either. Can only put it down to them not rating him so they are thinking there is no upside here.

Those who rate him genuinely believe he may he our long-term 6\. Why the hell wouldn't you blood him if that's the case.

Good luck Tyson, well deserved chance mate, but what if he goes really well, what does Ivan do moving forward regarding team selections and contracts.

He should pick the best team possible.
 
Wish him well but i don't understand what is going on, we finally got Reynolds in the 6 and have a chance for him and Brooks to continue their combo plus we've finally got a 9 playing 9 and now we're reshuffling a 6 back to 9 and playing our 3rd no6.
WHY????

If we sign a 9 and when Benji is back fit is Ivan going to continue with Reynolds at 9, play Benji at 6 and Gamble dropped?
Probably not, so why mess around with Reynolds at 9 when we've got a 9
Seems like too much disruption and shuffling for no reason.

Unless it's Reynolds who is the one OUT..

Looks like you picked it, Geo

Yes, ABC radio reporting this.

All the best Tyson, we're finally going to find out where you're at! Looking forward to him straightening the attack… I hope!
