  • Field is dropped he's done ok defense has been surprisingly good but as a half he hasn't locked down the spot he has no kicking game and I think we play to flat for his type of running game. Field may come back in but it's worth seeing if takka can open up the left edge.

    RCG has played a lot of minutes this year and fourtunatly Alvaro has had some good footy recently 

    • So Taka has a better kicking game. FFS .RAOMALO

       

      • No but he does have a short kicking game. I'd personally be experimenting with gutho at 6 Smith 1

  • Happy to see RCG rested, I thought he was a little flat the last two games. I worry how slow Taka is, he is good with the ball in his hand but very slow. 

    • Slow is a compliment tin Tim.

      Guaranteed three errors. Count them

       

  • Earlier in the week, I suggested all the reserves come into the 17 to give some of our key players a rest and was admonished by Poppa (no surprises there). 

    I wouldn't be surprised to see Smith play full back and Guth gets a rest, with Dunster coming onto the bench, as well as Gennings coming in for Ferg or maybe even brother Jennings getting a rest

    • Worked out so well we play after Raiders and can see what we are up against.

      hope we do get the chance to rest and experiment- like the thought of Will giving Guth a rest - hard part is getting Guth to come  off. :) 

      I'd imagine Taka won't go the full eighty so Will could give him a breather too - Will gonna be busy.

"Then again, tired middle opens up the ruck for Api to do his thing.
We will give him space but will halves help him. Our spine is much better with Gutho and Brown in there."
