Cust

[KNUCKLES]

Also something in the Telegraph today about a star player who was asked to play fullback by his coach but refused and ran out in the halves. Not sure who that was meant to refer to but it crossed my mind it could have been Walker.

Milford?

 

[Ron E. Gibbs]

Milford?

Yeah, he was another obvious candidate.

 

[Eagles2nv]

It could have also been an off night.

Its not like were we're heading into the game on the back of a loss.

As much as we expect them to turn up 100%, sometimes they don't.

All it takes is someone influential to be off and it can flow through. DCE turning up after fighting with the Mrs, Jake feeling a little unwell, AFB lacking sleep. Only takes 1 or 2 to change the mood.

I see it at my own work when your lead team is off the whole team has a bad day.

Let Cust run the team. He offers a few options.

We definitely look better when he takes control

Still not convincing at 5/8
He's a good runner and a bit of a bulldog BUT just doesn't have the ability to set up his outside players. He is an out n out hooker.

He cant tackle well enough to play hooker...

 

[Heisenberg]

I'd play him at Hooker if Manase doesn't feature next season. Get Foran in.

 

[Narly]

Gusty player but he's decision making is not very good. We need a 5/8 to guide the backline. Also handling errors is a concern.

 

[Tragic Eagle]

Cust is not the answer at 5/8.

 

[Sheikheagle]

Cust is not the answer at 5/8.

or any other position.

Deceptive value. Truth is he is either hot or cold. Completely invisible and amateurish today. Not the answer, neither is Walker. Foz or Schuster, foz for mine w/ Schuster to bench/backline

I would like to Schuster get a chance for the remaining games, would give some insight to his ability in the 6 jumper.

I have tried to support him but he has had MANY opportunities and may be just an "out n out" reggie.
There are better kids out there without a FG spot we should be hunting.

What are our recruitment team doing?

 

[sheridanstand78]

Cust is still a baby and learning some harsh lessons right now. What we need is a halves coach to give him the help he needs. I think our problems stem from the fact our hooker is not creating much and the pressure on Cust and DCE is a big problem.

Agree I have been saying it for a while just not good enough for FG. Fair back up but that's it. What some people see in him baffles me., cant pass, cant kick, cant catch !!

 

[IQofalimabean]

time to give schuster a go.

 

[NYEagle]

Lacks composure. He needs to have a clear plan in his head to execute or he gets lost or goes missing.

Look - he was clearly playing injured, with a heavily strapped leg. Did you people not notice he did no kicking at all? Usually he would kick to take some pressure of Cherry. He is still a player of promise, learning how to play injured.
