The Schu’s position

[Spartan Eagle]

Personally I like the no look passes. Players around him should just be more aware and expect the unexpexted. If our own players are baffled imagine the opposition.

 

[47MVEagle]

Agree that he's awesome & he absolutely has to be on field for us.

Just needs to be a tad more selective with his no look passes, but it was his first game back last night so his enthusiasm levels were understandably off the charts.

 

[Shoe1]

There was only one bad no-look pass in this game.

I can’t wait for next Saturday night watching these guys live again at Suncorp!

With Schu in the side the Queensland climate and dry fast grounds are really going to play into our hands.
As for what position, we need Foran for now so its an easy decision.
Certainly got the skill for 5/8 but the kid is still so young and in the end it may be his size that determines where he's best.

When Schuster started to roam the field at times and got the ball he had plenty of time to do things and it helped us open up the Dragons defensive line. Schuster just needs to put away those stupid passes.. 👍

 

[Simonmyers11]

Our edge attack at full strength is really exciting

None better in the comp

100% mate. Love watching the eagles attack at Suncorp. Grd suits us well, especially at near full strength

Its pretty special. Just needs to know when not to throw it, but he is a real talent with ball in hand.

 

[Tragic Eagle]

For the next 18 months if Foran stays well he should be part of the best back row we have had for years. But if Kieran gets hurt he or Cust need to play 5/8 before Walker.

 

[Woodsie]

If only he didn't look like Latrell Mitchel's little brother ...

Edge forward for mine, working with Guacamole, ... Shu to Guac TRY! .. will become as famous as Lyons to Menzies ...

 

[The Who]

It's no surprise The Shoe is receiving rave reviews by the general media. Most of us have followed his progress for 3-4 seasons and the non-Manly media is just catching up to his special talent.
Last night he won the Channel Nein's MoM and also garnered many points on this Forum's MoM voting. I didn't have him in the top three for the reason I thought he overplayed his hand. He had some magic moments but also some 'Tom Wright' moments. I can understand why; we didn't have our three SOO reps playing and he took it upon himself to try things every time he touched the ball. With DCE, Turbo and Jurbo back the pressure will be eased on The Shoe and I'm tipping he will be selective in his offloads, particularly his favourite, the 'Braille'.
I might be kidding myself but if we ever get our top five (Turbo, DCE, Jurbo, The Shoe and Guaca) on the paddock at the same team I believe we'd have the finest attacking side in the NRL. It would then be a matter of getting an even share of possessions and we could beat 'em all.
It also is worth remembering that two of our most exciting players, The Shoe and Guaca, were not considered by our selectors to be among our best 17 at the start of the season.

They were always going to feature in our team as the season wore on. "Our selectors" had a rough idea of how long and arduous an NRL season is, and of how young and inexperienced those prodigies were. In part due to the effect of the pandemic last year. "Our selectors" wanted them in at the right end of the year, the business end.

 

[castle eagle]

i wish saab was on the same side as him

 

[Marto1970]

I would rather Shu than a hole running backrower the more attacking options the better

 

[DaveLP]

I just can't wait for turbo to be back on the end of his half breaks and offloads as we have seen what happens when they both play together this year. He will have to settle for second row until next year I guess baring any injuries to chez and foz.

 

[wombatgc]

Edge definitely. How good is he at setting up his outside man. Just adds another dimension to Manlys attack

You’d be lining up to be on his outside for sure.

 

[Fonzarelli]

Gifty- Mark 2

If he played 13 he could do that both sides of the field

He could, but Jake also sures up the middle with his defence and does a wonderful jib taking it to the line then throwing nice balls out the back to a running dce, similar to Yeo does at the panthers. Plus has a great combo in the middle with Tom. Jake is no prop either, we have plenty of good props

However his winger had plenty of time to see him setting up the play and should have been running onto the pass, the pass was good and would have created something from nothing
