[Resurrected] Please, please Trent... Pick Tom Wright

[Bearfax]

Tom gets four minutes and we win! Coincidence? I don’t think so...

No Ricardo. It was a psychological ploy. Barrett knew several players would be at risk of losing their spot if Tom Wright played. You could sense the fear in their actions. It'll get worse when Anderson gets his chance. Some players are already fretting at the third Trbojevic, Albert Hopoate and Schuster coming through. I understand at least two players have had panic attacks and another lost his breakfast recently. Its a competitive world. I understand there's a 13 year old who has our entire backline in sheer hysteria

He only had one run and gave away a penalty but that's by far his best game in 1st grade....

Lay off the bloke, 2 runs and he is unbeaten.

 

[Fluffy]

The moment he went on the field the Broncos immediately started targeting him, and he never looked comfortable. But still, good to see him getting introduced to first grade slowly.

It was Pangai Jnr and Ofahangowi that ran at him and he made solid enough front on contact one on one.

 

[Harvies elbow]

Lay off the bloke, 2 runs and he is unbeaten.

OK I'm a bit tough. I have him at 1 run, you've got him at 2 and @XV-1 has him at 3.
One of us has to be right and I doubt it's me cause I only saw one.

You definitely have a point there about a psychological ploy. With Brown on the bench all the playing squad believed their positions were safe as a bank and they generally played that way.

Just hate to see very promising talent not given a chance to shine Woodsie. Trent did the right thing here. Anderson next. Let them taste the big time and feel they are in line for a FG position. I would imagine it must boost their confidence and hopefully application greatly.

ps I also suspect Matt Wright has just seen his last first grade match with Manly. If Hodkinson comes to Manly, Suli will take his wing spot at least until Taufua returns and M. Wright will be then second in line behind Tom if we have further losses in the back line.

Fair enough BF, but back on point to Woodsie’s question, did you present the jersey?

Looks like Gosiewski might have played from the photos of the game. Maybe he will be back next week.

Don't they mean 86 minutes of playing in 2 days ?? Good on him for making the effort though, sends a good message to coaching staff.

Just a file photo I'd say as Jetski didn't play. Although he might be close to being back, as must be Horhay.

Please Trent.... pick T Wright ahead of L Brown, because:

1. T Wright is a better player
2. (MOST IMPORTANT REASON) When Baz has chose Brown this year, we have not won a single game. Brown could be a bad curse. When Baz has chosen T Wright to play we have won every game, T Wright is a good luck charm

Will Trent be innovative for Thursdays match against the Cowgirls and pick Tom at full back.

Or will he be boring and pick his much slower brother Matt.

C'mon Trent - be innovative!

 

[HK_Eagle]

Agreed. He was always relaible and solid and did his job. He's just not a game changer. We have a couple of those and they need their chance.

I tell you what... there are a couple of more fancied "game-changers" who I'd be happy if they just managed to perform their job as consistently as M Wright does.

 

[Dee Why Eagle]

3 minutes tops, I reckon. A bit like my sex life on a good night.

at least you still have one... brief as it may be...
3 minutes, really? Fancy yourself as a bit of a stayer?

I'll be happy with Matt. More interested in who covers Jake at lock.

 

[40 years an eagle]

Has to be Lane, one would imagine.

 

[Chip and Chase]

I won't be surprised if its Thompson and Frankenstein goes left edge and Jetski right edge.

 

[XV-1]

Please tell me

Is Tom Wright a better option than

Fat lazy Suli and slowest back in the world Matt Wright

Fuken joke

 

[frank stokes]

Time for trent to suck it and see with tommy wright

 

[nightster]

Trouble is bringing him into such a poorly performing team he's on a hiding to nothing ... still I'd like to see him given a shot ...
