While French is at fullback we need two big wingers just like the Melbourne Storm.

Unless we have a big powerful fullback like Hayne or Gutherson this is a must.

even though Hoffman was solid yesterday and scored 2 tries, we struggled to come out of our own end. 2 big powerful wingers will help start our sets.

  1. When Gutherson got injured last year we had Semi and Krismone as our wingers it made up the lost of gutho coming out of our own end and made Will and French look the goods at fullback.
  2. The best scenario if French is our long standing fullback or until gutho returns is Hoffman out with Hayne at wing and Takka back at centre. Edwards comes straight back in. His physical presence and enthusiasm was missed coming off the bench yesterday. Once Mannah and Alvaro were off we went to shit.
  3. If you look at the early games we lost last year it was because French was at fullback at the same time of Hoffman at wing.

  • Maybe what BA may find out sooner rather than later that Hayne is needed at fullback.
    And for Oman sakes we lost round one 2009 by 10 points!
    • 2009 ay?
      Coming into round 19 that year we’d only managed 5 wins.
      Il never forget what our coach Daniel Anderson said when we began our run.
      He said we cant play like st,george or melbourne cause we dont possess the players in key positions.
      He was referring to the structure in which those top teams play.
      Thats when 2nd phase play was unleashed in accomadation to Hayne.
      He got unfairly sacked being replaced by pea brain Stephen Kearney who tried to clone everthing from the Storm.
      He put us back atleast 5 years with a couple of spoons to our liking!
  • Yes.  That extra 500K we had left over should had gone to Semi, or at least a good portion of it.  We have made a monumental mistake and not re-signing Semi.    

  • Hayne fullback. Hes still a superstar and looks dangerous everytime he gets his hand on the ball, French wing, Jennings to the right side, Taka back at centre. Hoff & Auvau one to wing one right out. Kenny back on the bench. Issues solved. You want to win give Hayne the ball.
  • Takas involvement is at best Ben Rodgers like. He is way too slow to be a center. Spend some time in wenty to become more accustomed to second row cause ATM its utterly a waste of space. Check the stats. Woeful involvement.
    • That's him....lol
      I meant Billy oh ffs im going for a lie down.
  • lol who in the feks Ben rogers chuck? 

  • 1. Hayne
    2. French
    3. Jennings
    4. Auvaa
    5. Hoffman

    Ins:
    Vave, Edwards

    Outs:
    Evans, Moeroa

    Taka stays at second row
    • Tepai was one of the better forwards out there. It would be hard to drop him.
    • spot on crypto
