Off topic but of concern is the fact we've tried Garland and Rivers forward in roles made for Ricky P, this boy can play and needs a wake up call urgently.

I prefer the glass half full thinking that we are building multi-dimensional talls. TGR has been talking about that on "Ology for years. Looks like Neeld is going "has size, can catch" lets see where you can play. The long term benefit is we can swing blokes back and forward to change it around.

You make a good point about crumbers, but modern footy is about 28 blokes chasing the ball from one end to the other with 4 at either end. if it comes in quick not much chance of a forward flanker getting to the crumb. Our additional problem is we have flankers like Howe and Sylvia who can take a mark and they all end up flying for the same balls (like yesterday when Clark cleaned Howe up), with no one staying down. That's something Leigh Brown's got to sort out.

As for Ricky, he's got 3 months to get busy or get packing.

I am glad that James has found the position that suits him. Play him in a position that suits his abilities and he will shine. Kudo to you, James.

Yeah and when clubs only have the one Gorrilla forward it might release Frawley to run off the half back.

Or even play the Scarlett role.

Two really good games in succession. He looks very comfortable in defence.

Really pleased with him down there - in being able to play that role effectively, he's given us a lot more options up front (eg, Garland and Rivers).

Couple of top quality spoils yesterday too.
