Manfredi

Post by shaunedwardsfanclub »

Cracking try playing on one leg. He was lucky to avoid a serious injury last night, I think he will now miss a few weeks which gives Charnley an opportunity

I just hope he is kept as a right winger rather than shunted to the left when Budgie leaves as he is a far better right than left winger.

Given a choice Manfredi before Charnley, could be next international winger.

Wow how quickly people forget how good Charnley actually is.....

But on Manfredi. Hes playing amazingly well i actually prefer him to budgie. Budgie has moments of pure brilliance but i always worry that hes going to make a error. Manfredi however seems Solid hes a amazing finisher and makes very few errors with ball in hand. I wasnt sold on him at first but hes definitely gettimg better each week.
These are two reasons not to trust people.
1. We don't know them.

I don't think for one moment that people forget how good Josh Charnley is.People also have good memories in that Josh was found wanting in defence on more than one occasion and that Dom seems more assured.Please tell what you mean by errors in Budgies game.Some of the passes that he was expected to take earlier in the season where near on impossible to take beacause the passes where left a lot to be desired.Yes he did make a couple of errors on Friday.But how many line defences did he make.Most people would love to see Josh playing week in and week out but on the current form of Dom and Budgie he is being sidelined.His day will come soon.

Not all of the passes to Budgie were bad early season Kooch, some of the errors made were down to himself, and possibly Budgie feeling the pressure of making the decision to go to Sydney and knowing how us fans may feel about that.
He has now got back on top of his game and is looking really sharp for me.
Irrespective of us having Dom and Josh, I think that Budgie will be a massive miss next season based on his current form.

I am of an ilk that Josh could easily be a centre but Gelling has put a spanner in the works with some outstanding efforts. Nevertheless there are rumours that Gels will return to the NRL.

I think Budgie will be a huge loss. There simply is no substitute for his pace.
