First 20 minutes of the first game of the season. Not really worried at all. Yeah I don't want to go through that again.
He's still a baby, particularly in prop terms. Most props don't really become proper starting first graders until their mid to late 20s. I agree he's not a starter now but he will be eventually IMO.
Neither is Mose or JWH though. They are both much better coming from the bench. When Carney comes back, Anasta will go to lock and Myles will probably be the other starting prop anyway. Which sucks because he is a much better lock/2nd rower but he does the job.
When Myles plays lock he pretty much plays as a prop. Aubusson and Nuuasala clearly play on the fringes and Myles up the middle.
Yeah, that is where basically all the locks play these days. Their roles differ but they all play up the middle in both attack and defence.
I'd just play Graham over Linnet tbh... pretty sure he's still injured atm though. Haha Mini still does the job (his support play is immense).. as long as Smith can get it out of his head that he's a ball player he's not really a liability. Deffo wouldn't re-sign him though beyond this year... would love to get Milne or some other really strong kick returner.
Went to the game and it was a gooden, Frank Paul was my motm, the guy was making some hard metres and taking quite a few defenders with him every time and even laid on a try. Inglis is deadset fatter than Riddell. Also does anyone have Ben Ross's stats? I know he's back from injury but he looked well off the pace, he was wandering around in defence and not getting up or sliding and had no sting in his runs.
Hitups: 5 (41m) Ruck Runs: 2 (14m) All Runs: 9 (80m) Tackles: 16 One-on-one: 1 Ineffective: 1 Missed: 3 Offloads: 0 Tackle Breaks: 0 Errors: 0 Penalties: 0
Hitup is straight off the play the ball i.e hooker to prop. Ruck run is with someone touching it in between i.e Hooker to halfback to prop. At least that's how it's been explained to me..
