Tristan Saylor?

Tristan Saylor has just been let go from the dragons. In my opinion he has huge potential and was never really given a proper go. He can play fullback and in the halves. Should parramatta go after him to put pressure on both our halves and fullback spots?

    • That is what I was thinking. As long as we don't pay lots of money for the kid. 

  • Yes

    • NO dragons let him go. So he can want something all he wants but he would still need to earn his spot like everyone else. 

  • yes great young talent thinking he will end up at the bronks though 

  • No thanks.

      • Safe bet 

  • To be honest Rusty, seen him play one game and thought he has skills.   Just worred that he is Bevan French 2.0.   Back 3 need to be serious yardish makers and the little fellas struggle when jammed in corners.  Obviously, they come into their own in attack zones.  Surely we must have some local kids coming through we can slap in at the bargain low rate and bring them through./

      • Poppa, fair point about JAC. He is an extremely dangerous ball runner but is not a giant winger at all. 
        I wonder, though, how JAC would go on the wing in a team struggling for meters? He plays for Storm and the Blues and it's not like he is ever really in the constant yardage eating game. Having said that, he has a lot of late footwork at the line and very rarely gets dominated in a tackle. It seems Bellamy plays to the strength of his players in many ways, as JAC obviously has a license to roam in his returns, looking for the half or even quarter gap. That might be the crucial factor for returning the ball from kicks? Sivo has went off the ball and it seems teams have figured he won't step at all

  • If someone could catch JAC he would not look so impressive. Trouble is noone can. Has there been a winger faster? 

  • Definitely want sailor covers a few postions and is has plenty of upside in signing him. Possibly as a future spine option
