Hi Trent

Just an idea regarding the use of Adin Fanoua Blake

Why don't we add another prop on the bench instead of Brown + Hastings

And free up AFB to run lines in attack on the edges.

He is unstoppable 5-10 meters out from the attacking line on the edges

Just an idea

where does he defend?

If it's on the edge as well then it will be a disaster. He is massive and just does not have the mobility out there.

Maybe he can then do some more shoulder charges on kickers

Sometimes these things happen. He wraps on that tackle it it is let go. Heat of the moment.

Yeah might have been heat of the moment stuff but still really dumb at a crucial point in the game

Don't think that was really a shoulder charge was it? He looked away as an instinct reacting to the kick and made the shot, I reckon it's fine

Addin is doing a great job where he is. If we are going to free up a forward to play on the edges it would have to be Lawrence IMO.

As it stands, I would keep things as they are, or bring Lane onto the bench to replace Brown. In saying that, Brown has upped his game and gone well the last few games.

Didn't think so either but Sailed a bit close to the wind hence penalty

I think browns been alright the last little while but Trent needs to make the call in who's the utility him or Hastings? Don't carry both there's really no point.

 

[andyvb]

Hastings will be fullback next week and darcy to the bench

End of the day, Trent has us playing with the ability to beat anyone, anywhere again, so I'm happy for him to decide on what's best for us atm 🙂

A good coach would know we needed another forward on the bench

Not waste two spots with brown and Hastings

Really?
Tell me what he did tonight because he had no impact what so ever.

Mate, you know I respect your opinion, but can't agree on that. I actually thought Brown / Hastings were great. The refs were poor. Our overall team seemed flat (2nd half only), and that happens to some teams after a bye.

Barrett is proving himself to be a pretty darned good coach for us. 10 rounds in, in the top 8. Give it time champion, you'll see.

Having two fresh faster, more skillfull guys to come on late seems to be working ok. Tonight when tom went off the broncs scored trys because hastings was not covering his wingers like turbowould have.

Yeah bro all good man

They were decent

We just had no go forward in second half and another prop would have been logical

Another prop wouldn't have made any difference when Broncos defenders were up shaking hands with our first pass hitup attackers. Seriously it was a joke

What about Lawrence to 2nd row when Perrett and Lussick are back? He seems that have good fitness, so should be good for decent minutes, and his speed into edge holes could be interesting.

Lawrence and Winterstein could be the 2 biggest 2nd rowers in the comp if we played with them.
