Greene is 25 years old.

I can't help you with your lack of vision.

Nothing to do with a lack of vision

It’s a poorly formed opinion.

In my opinion.

 

[Coach Killer]

Day and Ward can fill a bit of that role for now, and Weddle coming in provides that third, more defensive wing that could really unleash Amon. I think Bramble is great depth, but nothing more.

We've got a few now that can play on the wing. My preference is Butler due to his ability to not lose (or neutralise) one on ones.

He also has the Xfactor, speed, strength and hits the scoreboard, but it’s his one on one contests on a wing that I think sets him apart. Watching him in contests he never seems to lose them or he neutralizes them, I always sense a level of comfort that he will beat his opponent one on one, which is rare. Cyril and Burgoyne had “it”

That said, it's Brambles spot to lose for now so hopefully he plays a ripper and makes it's difficult for anyone to de-horse him.

I respect your opinion

 

[The hands of stone]

Hopefully plenty of this from late in the 3rd onwards from the lads

 

[WWSD]

Was Ned Long one of the standout players during the pre-season? I don’t think i’ve seen his name mentioned all that much during the training reports.

 

[barbster]

Hope Scrimshaw is the sub, quality back and could be handy up forward if needed.
Too good of a player to be not named.

 

[TylerDurden]

Scrim sub. Surely?!

 

[TheFourPillars]

Scrim sub. Surely?!

Nash will be sub he comes on for Reeves. Its the most logical choice given we r not playing a two ruck team

Nash is a great utility sub option. Could slot into quite a few different roles.

We are. Phillips is in.

 

[KermitJagger]

Scrim sub. Surely?!

I've seen you comment a couple of times that Scrim is surely gonna be in TD

I think you might be jinxing him

You don't leave out quality like him. Can come on and play through the wings too.

 

[KermitJagger]

Well all signs point to us leaving him out!

He doesn't make sense as the sub because he's not really an energy player.

Everyone will get a turn

 

[TheFourPillars]

We are. Phillips is in.

I still do it early rnds of the season

 

[Todman]

[threesixpio]

Dumb question but can a team pick a sub from a (limited) multitude of players or just the one one sub ?

I am assuming the latter but the former would be cool and yes I am drunk

 

[threesixpio]

And go forward and kick truly

How about the fact that he marks reasonably well too ?

 

[chopflop]

Nash is the perfect sub. Can cover tall and small roles and can pinch hit as a ruck if a Ruckman goes down. Plus he will bring physicality and a big motor.

Yeahhhh.. that reads like you're drunk.

Contested/intercept mark in closing minutes. Great kick

A but like Suckling but less cute with his kicking and way more accountable with defensive shit

I’m with TylerDurden

 

[threesixpio]

Yeahhhh.. that reads like you're drunk.

Can we have 1000 guys available as sub?

Serious question

 

[threesixpio]

heck I hate the cats
