Alvaro

Did anyone else notice that the players seemed reluctant to give Alvaro a run? It may be because he came on late when the game was in the balance, but I watched him run one out from the ruck a few times looking for the ball and he was either cut out or the ball runner looked and did not pass. He finished the game with only 1 run on debut. Don't think we can read too much into it, but will be interesting to see what happens next time around.

  • I notice this this to. He was in tackles but just did decoy runs. Still good to see him in the game. Sure he will be getting more time on the field. He was eager to work. I like that.
  • Ye noticed it too actually gave me a giggle how they avoided him
  • I think it was a reaction to Alvaro's knock on first up... As you mentioned, with the game in the balance I thought especially Peats seemed reluctant to give the ball to the rookie in case it happened again. He did look busy and keen for work though.

    • Yep he had a stuff up and they wouldn't risk it . Fair enough . Am sure he wud have read that
  • His 6 minutes in the big time reminded me of some of my earlier forays in the bedroom.
    A lot of promise but over before it even began.
    • Frank stop it !! , surely you got more than one pass :-)
  • Hahaha, yeah it wasn't always that bad.
    Occasionally they would pass out and I could have my way.
    • Thank god otherwise woulda called u Timmy !
    • Agree Frank, Rohypnols always handy to have around the house.

      • Na Snake just pickup the ugliest and drunkest woman in the nightclub. Improves the chances 100% mate.
