You have to have at least one strike centre who causes panic in defences. We forget we had them in our GF wins. Players such as O'Connor, Innes, Hill, Lyon, Steve Bell, Matai, even Steve Menzies in the backline as 2nd row. Sadly, comparing Brad and Morgan to these guys and there is part of the...
Sione Fainu has the amazing build for this powerhouse type of forward coming through. Unlucky he got injured at the end of the season.
From Ennis with the Blues 18's: NSW Under-18s coach Michael Ennis described Fainu as a really modern-day front-row or middle forward who has got beautiful...
Big call but Foz has gone as far as he can. He killed it but it is time to get Schuster out of 2nd row, put him in 5/8 develop a hard running 2nd rower like Garner, Burbo or even Parker (great defence as well) . We need more speed in at least one centre position as it is obvious who we attack...
Old memories here, mostly a reserve grade winger from Manly, c'mon, sharpen that memory. Darren Riley. Played 4 first grade games. Do you remember him. I saw one game he got the ball in our quarter and took off and it was like watching Bolt. He just few. Peter C off here in 2010: We also had a...
I know, he was running riot and he just made it so hard for the opposition to decide his play. You sort of know most hookers pick up and pass off, Manase would just run so defences had to be aware of him running and if he did pass, there were gaps. Those highlights, plus his amazing family of...
We are forgetting that Fainu is an amazing runner and his options make the defence even more confused. Think guys look Cook and even Cam Smith, their running and movement ability is why these two guys are looked on as the best hookers in the recent years. Smith would probably be the best ever...
Hopefully not the mocker on him but his nearly ten years have been impressive and quite injury free when you consider the 10 year contract of Buddy franklin that killed The Swans.
I watched a cop show on drug lords and the brotherhood. In 5-10 minutes into the car trip to the station they are ratting out each other and trying to do deals to keep out of jail.
It will catch us in the grand final if we have two defensive centres, I mean, we will miss out on a vital try and Parks and Harps haven't got that ability to conjure up something. To help, think Matai and Jamie Lyon, could do both easily, having 2 average attacking centres will catch us big...
