Our Backline

Now that Eric Grothe has retired and Timana Tahu all but gone our backline has been delt a severe blow i do think we will end up with Chris Hicks and Paul Whiatura though and i think thats a good thing so i ask if you were our coach for 2011 how would you line up positions 1-7  this is what i would go with:

 

1. Jarryd Hayne

2. Luke Burt

3. Paul Whiatura

4. Joel Reddy

5. Chris Hicks

6. Daniel Mortimer

7. Jeff Robson

 

Mortimer and Robson have been all but confirmed as our halves but if Murray is not banned from the Nrl i like to see him have a go sooner our later.

  • Maitua wont be back to round 7 or there abouts you would you play until then.

  • You could have say 3. Loko 4. Filga.

    I wouldnt want run at or filga for that matter why would you be licking your lips melbourne has bad center pairing now they have no Inglis.

  • I would be staggered if Loko starts the season in the NRL. Realistically Hicks will partner Reddy in the centres, and Walker and Burt will get a wing spot each.

  • Did you forget to take your medicine today did you?
    One can only presume that you're taking the mickey out of either this thread or the team itself, but still.

    You want to play Horo as a prop?
    Hindy at hooker?
    Fui and Mitchell in the second row?


    Funny that you still think JT is coming, haha.

  • You must be a young fellow Ricky,  he has named the forwards in the old style we used to have .  If you read the forwards he listed starting from the bottom and work your  way up you will see what I mean.Or should I say what Sinbad means ?  You really do learne something everyday !

    • Yeah, I see it now.
      Just a strange way to put it, as I've never seen it done that way.

      My apologies in this case Sinbad, just haven't seen it structured in that way before.

      • That'll teach you to mouth off before you do your homework Pricky, hahaha.

  • 1. Jarryd Hayne

    2. Luke Burt

    3. Jacob Loko

    4. Joel Reddy

    5. Jordan Atkins

    6. Daniel Mortimer

    7. Jeff Robson

     

    I would have Brad Murray and Chris Hicks around this squad as often as possible to cover for Robson and work with Loko (who needs a chance to grow into first grade). Tom Humble is a starter from the bench to cover hooker and playmaker. It's not a bad backline and remember Robson was a GF halfback! Provided the forwards go forward and grind out the meters, this backline could be anything!
