i think due to the importance of this game i would argue for something left field
i would leave Winterstein in the forwards and move either kilau or martin to 6
and of all things you want to do you want to unsettle the opposition plans
I’ve heard he might be a bit ‘young’ even though he goes good in the 20’s.
A lefty too so that might help him lol
Apparently he is a very structured player, not an ‘off the cuff take a chance on anything’ type so that might help us ATM. The Luai’s of the world, although exciting when it pays off, often cause more harm then good in a struggling team.
I think Burton will be a good addition this week. As Kevin said, he is a pretty structured player, which should work with Cleary as he sometimes struggles with the off-the-cuff style that Maloney and Laui are well known for.
It also adds something that Cronulla struggles with, they play well when they research the team and know how the opposition gameplan flows. Burton would be well of the Sharks radar and should add a bit of X-Factor out on the field this week.
thanks guy
watched a try he scored recently and showed some incredible skill and instincts
that said it was against his own age group…different game when it’s the big boys and will either be ran inspired choice or disaster
i hope the kid goes good and its a great experience for him
Agree the video on him seems good. Reminds me a bit of Steve Menzies in the way he runs the ball, may be just his build and headgear though lol.
Our Central West nursery certainly seems to be producing the goods given the number of Dubbo, Wellington, Lithgow etc players in our first grade team. A good thing we are locking them up away from poaches from Easts and Melbourne.
May take a few seasons, but should pay long term benefits. We have essentially expanded the worlds largest junior league nursery exponentially.
Just have to make this turn into premiership success, not just be a first grade feeder club for the rest of the NRL.
First thing first though - good luck to Burton.
Is this some kind of club record how many juniors we have blooded this year?
Don’t know if it is a club record, but with Burton, Leniu & possibly Chrichton all making their debuts this week, I believe that will put us at 7 or 8 for the year (To’o, Naden, Cartwright, Kenny, Martin being the others)
mmm interesting move
gees its cold and worse still windy
i hope we play smart and to the conditions
wind will be roaring from the cricket ground end…do you go with the wind if you win the toss?
well well well
finally Cleary runs and breaks the line and we have a kid in Burton who looks like he could be anything
who’d of thunk if you ran straight you may cause the other mob problems
I am delighted we are running straight and hard and at last scoring in their red zone
I wouldn’t let Maloney anywhere near this side who played the first half…we need to replicate the effort but this is a completely different team playing how they should.
great win despite a less than good second half
some odd positional changes in the 2nd half by ivan but more for the players to take out of this
was a solid and needed win
still wouldn’t bring maloney back into this squad after how they went tonight
The catch under pressure fron Stephen Critchdon at the end was phenomenal. How cool under pressure was Matt Burton great performance. Well done to all the players…looking forward to going to Suncorp on Friday.
