Agreed and French clearly flourishes at FB (demonstrated at Paramatta too) so we need an option for standoff?bertina wrote: ↑Fri Jan 31, 2020 11:52 amTommy has never been at his best as a half back for me.Firestarter wrote: ↑Fri Jan 31, 2020 11:38 am I think he might get his chance in the halves as tommy is past his best

Re: Top 3 from last night v Wire
If Powell can't play next week, I'd leave tommy at hooker, and give young Smith a run in the halves with Hastings.Firestarter wrote: ↑Fri Jan 31, 2020 12:29 pmYea his kicking game always been poor...... should play hooker all the timebertina wrote: ↑Fri Jan 31, 2020 11:52 amTommy has never been at his best as a half back for me.Firestarter wrote: ↑Fri Jan 31, 2020 11:38 am I think he might get his chance in the halves as tommy is past his best

Re: Top 3 from last night v Wire
Harry Smith was in the last 19 so he should defo play next week. He’s just perfect & a player to look out for in the future!bertina wrote: ↑Fri Jan 31, 2020 1:21 pmIf Powell can't play next week, I'd leave tommy at hooker, and give young Smith a run in the halves with Hastings.Firestarter wrote: ↑Fri Jan 31, 2020 12:29 pmYea his kicking game always been poor...... should play hooker all the time
Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

Re: Top 3 from last night v Wire
When TL plays 9 he is usually spelled. Agree Smith should be in the squad but who goes to 9 if/when Tommy comes off?
Re: Top 3 from last night v Wire
So what was he given the no 6 shirt? Apart from players like Hastings who have their favourite numbers the squad had been given the shirt to match their expected starting position.josie andrews wrote: ↑Fri Jan 31, 2020 11:51 amHe prefers FBFirestarter wrote: ↑Fri Jan 31, 2020 11:38 am I think he might get his chance in the halves as tommy is past his best![]()
Re: Top 3 from last night v Wire
id play one of the academy lads, we have 2 who could fill the gap for powell if he isnt fit, I thought we missed him after he went off last night, he got us moving forward well last night with scoots etcDaveO wrote: ↑Fri Jan 31, 2020 2:12 pmSo what was he given the no 6 shirt?
