Oppo Camp John Noble (Traded to GCS 2024)

[gouki88]

Yes they will probably stick Nick at half back even though he is a mid
Outside of Houston (lock), Sinclair (lock) and Redman who else? I would have Noble in the conversation for sure

Please no one suggest Saad i have a stomach ulcer and a belly laugh would do more harm than good

Quaynor might be pushing too! Wilkie and Blakey are both probably contenders for that spot too. But Noble is having a red hot crack!

 

[rand corp]

Our run, drive and scoring from out of the backline was beyond elite last week, it was just sensational to watch. Noble, IQ have gone to another level and it's also lifting blokes like Oleg as well, whose pace had been a real weapon. Noble much better defensively now because he has had time to build his core and get the strength required. That bit of play where Howe took the kick in and Murphy and Moore took off up the guts -to mark, handball, dash and then lob it deep into the fwd 50 for a resultant goal- was sublime stuff.

and Maynard.

I can't think it's due to form..... May be he has done something to his body.

 

[haydenboii]

I think markov has taken over noble. He provides the same run as noble but is more reliable with his disposal. Nobles kicking has been shaky this year

Anzacday was on to this in a roundabout way last week in the IQ thread. If he’s missing (big if of course) I think there’s some intel that’s gone into it. I’d hate it as a move and it really should be Cameron, but I’d get it.

Maybe the sub?

 

[domus]

Maybe the sub?

My son says he has been dropped. Or at least not named due to an injury?

 

[pablo disco bar]

Dropped !!!

Unbelievable and wrong call

 

[Soups]

He hasn’t been as good as the first half of season but gee that’s rough if he has been dropped.

 

[stormskye]

Rough for Johnny but I can see the reasoning. Markov plays the same role but is arguably stronger overall atm.

 

[Scodog10]

He hasn’t been as good as the first half of season but gee that’s rough if he has been dropped.

If it goes the way we’re assuming and I had to guess at the reasoning I’d say he’s had a drop off defensively. Positioning, ground ball gets, contest win rate etc. I don’t think much has changed in possession, but it seems scarily ruthless.

 

[Doc1763]

Gutted for him if its true, but this is what happens when you have only 1 player out injured. There would be another hard luck story if Nick was ready this week.

 

[Jelly Bean]

How is WHE playing and Noble isn't?

 

[Bianconeri]

How is WHE playing and Noble isn't?

WHE can take intercept marks and has a good spoiling technique.

'Can' but rarely does.

 

[gouki88]

Feel for Beaker. Have more time for him than Lipinski.

But think Markov has gone past him in the runner role

 

[gouki88]

'Can' but rarely does.

Rarely is more than never, which is the case of Noble. WHE is more versatile

 

[Kes1984]

How is WHE playing and Noble isn't?

Versatility.
I’m so sad for Noble. It’s really heartbreaking that he’s lost his spot.
Reality is Markov has now surpassed him and adds more value to the team.
WHE also adds more value with his versatility. He can compete aerially too and is a stronger body.
Noble is just a bit too small at times and gets pushed out of contests too easily.
I’m really just so upset for him though. It’s super harsh that he’s been dropped at this time of the year.
For me, Lipinski has been our weakest link in recent weeks.

 

[3rdMan]

In my view a harsh and wrong move. I have Noble a fair bit ahead of Markov.

 

[jmac70]

He’ll pick himself up and get back into the team.

 

[Kirby]

JFN is very stiff.

He’ll take it like a man and be back.

 

[jmac70]

In my view a harsh and wrong move. I have Noble a fair bit ahead of Markov.

Yeah, but the people who matter and know more don’t.
