Jake Turbo to lock

[SeaEagleRock8]

I'm old enough to remember when the center a side was a new concept and inside and outside centers were the go.

I must be even older, back in my day it was spelled 'centre'...

This one is easy. When ya don't pick, Tred, Brown or Leary at lock. Who else would last 80 minutes?

I suspect your world is not the same world as the current NRL setups. not all teams do it, but its not unusual.

scrums these days while feeding have the dummy half (not hooker, they don't do that either like they used to) at the back of the scum, enabling better distribution from the scrum. while defending it will be a tackler.

its a new world, not better, not worse, just new.

have you ever seen Nick and Fred Yakich play,or I went to primary school with mossops son,greg,i go back a long way sunshine.
I do know about these modern new world positional placings,but Turbo will be a great lock/backrower/new age roving forward

That was when Rex Mossop swapped the maroon and white of Manly for the black and white of television 😛

Oh and just to continue the theme.......we're not in America. Here its spelled "colour" 😉

In my day a pickup was a good night out at a nightclub.

Good Lord, just realised the youngsters on here probably don't know what Sunday arvo games are, they will be telling there kids how great Monday night's were, too bad it was a school night and you couldn't come. Or Match of the Day.

When they started showing league on a weekly basis on TV in Adelaide in about 1990 or 1991, the highlight of my Saturday afternoons was watching the league on the ABC (it was even better if Manly played, better still if we won).

Whatever happened to Saturday afternoon footy?

WTF Barrett just gave the opposition our game plan.
