James Segeyaro

I hope he plays. Given he is a very different rake to Croker and Lawton it may well give us valuable information as how the current team performs with a different style of dummy half.

... the old "housemate's blender" defence, eh?

That 1 knocked me off the chair also
Judge Judy would have had a field day with that as a defence 😅

One night, I filled a fruit juice jug with 3/4 vodka and 1/4 orange juice, drank some and then I left it in the fridge and went to bed Next morning my mum's boyfriend at the time, grabbed the jug and filled a big glass of it for breakfast. Sculled it down and then went to work, not knowing it was mainly vodka. He worked in a bank, that wasn't a good day for him. So it does happen.

I watched the BWSE game even though they lost it wasnt because of him ,he was fast ,good passing played 1/2 and hooker and was overall dangerous and I think was the MOM .He played well and I think in 20 /25 minutes spurts would be great

Whose spot on the bench does he take?Des has reinvented Walker and Lawton is a Des favourite

not in place of Walker(unless Walker injured) ,but depending on the timing with Lawton etc could snatch a spot on the bench

I suspect Segeyaro has been brought in just for cover with a few injuries/suspension currently in the squad and with Origin coming up with the likelihood of 3-4 players out for one game at least and whether or not Des wants to rest those Origin players at some stage.I’d doubt Segeyaro has been brought in to take someone’s spot

Nothing will ever beat SKW's "my mum gave it to me"

I would think Crokers spot could be on offer if he can prove his fitness and ability off the bench....

Manly have to give him a contract first and despite what a few fans think of Croker,it’s obvious that Des is a big fan of him.Not to mention the fact Walker and Lawton already fill the bench,when they’re not suspended

Is she available to conduct the fainu trial?

 

[Damien2812]

Good news. We really need his creativity around the ruck and running game.

 

[CRPSI eagle]

I would try Lawton for full 30 each half at hooker and and Seg on bench for the other 10 or so each half.
Crocker is not a first grader and would never win big games with him occupying the 9 spot.

It's to the point any judge will do Shoe....dragged on so long now....she certainly breaks down the opposition well 🤔

For him to get Lawton and now Segeyaro. Not sure he rates him all that highly. Just few options available.

I admire Croker for what he's done. It's not his position. He's had some decent games but it's just such a crucial position. Today's game.. you look at Grant Cook Korosau Brailey Mahoney etc. All the top dummy halves just know when to run.. which options to take and just control the game. We lack it. You either have speed.. good running game.. basically stir the team around.

His defence and work rate has been quite good. But he won't be Dessies long term 9 in my opinion. Hopefully Fainu is back next season.. if not I think we need to start shopping for one.

He's just providing cover for when Croker gets picked for origin duties.
