If we want 2nd rowers that run more than 100m per game then all we have to do is change our game patterns. Our overall metres gained is as high as any top 6 team, it is simply other positions that make them.
Cannot believe that after nearly two years of our kick returner, followed by a winger, followed by a centre, followed by a prop has still failed to enter the heads of some people .... that of course our run metres by 2nd rowers is low.
And here is a scoop .... they will be low again next year.
It is not that Frank and Siro are incapable ... it is simply that under Baz it is not the role he plays them in.
possibly with different personnel he will alter the current patterns ... or he make play Thomson or Gurken-ski in the same role ???

Size and speed win big games feathered friend . Speed was one part of the equation
BIG IS BEAUTIFUL AND SPEED IS SEXY
The six packs were only six examples . St George won 11 premierships in a row when they dominated teams with their big and tough pack that had the likes of Kevin Ryan , Norm Proven , Rapper, Rasmussen , Ian Walsh
The parra pack early eighties and the canberra pack late eighties early nineties were tradesman packs but both sets of backs were very classy.
Not dissing the packs. Back then every player that played was tough but they wete not feared
Its just balance and everyone doing the job that the salary cap allows

That Bull dogs pack wasn 't called the "Dogs of War " for nothing but when Manly finally assembled their 87 pack of Vautin , Rambo Gibbs , Crusher Cleal . Daley , Mal Cochrane and Ward , it more then matched that Bulldogs pack and were the bench mark briefly then for that particular time .

Well used Member
Bozo, when you asked "how do we fair in 2018", I thought that to be a very fare question...

Can anyone explain why Beaver played off the bench in the 2008 gf (or in 2008 in general)
I was like 6, holy **** that is ten years ago next year

Beaver's role by then was as a utility player, he could cover as a centre as well as a forward, I suppose you could say similar to what Lewis Brown is doing today, lol.
Manly in the 08 GF were determined to win the war in the trenches and after knocking down the door in the ruck, plus an amazing kicking game on the day was the winning formula for that Massacre....after blowing up the middle, they played wider and the defensive edges would struggle by this time - giving Beaver extra room to enjoy....in fact a party for all the wide men....
Who will forget his first involvement after coming on late with that sensational try in the corner.....them the days!!
