Parker out

[eagle66]

With the backline options slowly growing, I will be more interested to see the attitude amongst them and if any decide to just kick stones. As we have seen over the many seasons, the opportunities keep popping up.

I'm guessing they are leaning more to making Burbo a back rower more than a centre.

And with Parker moving to back row along with kelma coming it’s gonna be tough for spots. I could see Parker being squeezed out

I’m also just speaking to the suggestion that they may try him in the back row too. I think he stays a centre but it’s a tricky one with so many shooting for the one spot. Personally I’d love to see Tuipulotu at right centre with saab to right wing, Garrick back to left wing and koula on his inside at left centre.

What about something from left field...do any of them have the attributes that saw Walker become our #14?
Could Tui be that player?
I can't see any of the others doing it.

Since when is Parker moving to the back row??

Walker has got good ballplaying skills. Haven't seen that from Tui so far

After 25 July, we may have some inkling as to the long term #14. If Manase is able to play again, I think it is likely he & Croker will be used in rotation as dummy halves.

Luke Garner says hi.

So does his grandfather.

If Manase is free to play next year he and Croker could tag team hooker and the Walker role.

Good to see Parker back playing , Will he replace Harper or Koula after a couple of games in Reggie’s who knows , Parker will play a few games in Reggie’s I think Des will do the same as he did with Paseka then he will decide if he gets his spot , on current form I can’t see Parker getting back in only if there is an injury
Good problem to have for the team

Manase, weekes or Lawton for 14. Jamie Humphreys at a pinch.

I think many would like what you just wrote.

He is back in first grade.

Harper supposedly injured hammy.

Hope you have a great game vs the Titans Brad.

Jeez it’s been a while hasn’t it ??

Replacing average with average I'm afraid.

 

[Andrew..]

I understand Parker may not be the most talented centre in the comp but I admire his tenacity; I can't recall a game where he's never put in less than 100%. After the last few losses im looking forward to seeing him run out again. I just hope the boys put in an 80 minute effort. I can handle a loss, I just get dirty when they drop their bundle.

That just about sums up Des to a T.

This has already been raised in the pre-game thread.
