Adam Reynolds at Halfback?

Posted by Clintorian on February 23, 2021 at 3:27pm in NRL

Seeing the article in the DT today, it's Interesting that the Bunnies have given him such a poor contract extension...
While I'll admit he's not outstanding, you can't deny he has been a pretty important and reliable feature in their success in the last couple of years. I think he deserves a bit more respect than what the Bunnies are showing here and we could potentially benefit from it. Yes injury is somewhat of a concern, but looking at the stats, it's nothing too different than what most players deal with year to year.

How could it work?

Adam Reynolds at Halfback
Moses to 5/8
Dylan Brown to left centre

Dylan Brown is definitely our long-term 5/8 option (potential captain too), but I think this just stabilises the team a little better across the park and fixes our centre issues. Thoughts?

        If you think you're a special needs person, I'll keep picking on you.

    Scotty, We can lead them to the watering hole but can't make them drink.

      Too right Vertical.
      
      You'd think some people around here were Jake Arthur.

I don’t mind it Clintorian, as far as game control and kicking Reynolds is very good and age shouldn’t impact the best parts of his game too much. It’s not a slight on Mitch, but I’m not convinced he will ever have the mindset for a gf winning half, most players don’t. Would love to see him in a position where he’s free to run more. His running game is immense when he uses it.

  Couldn't agree more Gary.
  
  If Moses could read the game and adapt to what is needed he would be the best halfback in the game.

For a start I very much doubt there is room in the salary cap unless Jennings' contract is torn up.

  Get rid of Jennings, Fergo, and Moses heaps of cash then....

Who started the Brown to centre BS???

Hes a half he got thrown in at a young age because that's his postion you only move him if he has no future there.

As for Reynolds it would be between him and Moses I'd go Reynolds I think he's in the top 5 half's in the game.

That Been said I have a feeling Moses is about to start fulfilling his potential
