  • Back row

    We have so many good back rowers yet do we have a really good one anymore? Or use them right anymore?
    every team has that move of half to back rower who runs a great line to get a try yet we seem not to have it…
    Used to love the Pearce to Cordner line/try…etc
    Our current halves/ backrowers don’t seem to be able to do that and it’s really affecting our attack. We just want to do one off hit ups and spread the ball to the wing without any option of the short ball to the 2nd rower which every other team does…
    it creates our players running out with no room to move or making mistakes.

      I really thought Angus was gonna be that guy when he signed from Souths.

            Looks like one of Trents slight changes. He has our rakes as the passers to our middles. Its a set move to have support close by the cheeseburger for his 15m scoots. usually Nat or Sitilli. we win the middle battles we win. we are still using our wings and centres in the first three hitup in every set. 1 off the ruck stuff. 4th tackle is have a scoot or give it to Teddy out the back line and 5th is a half weight bomb with no pressure.

              Let’s hope he gets his form back again as this will be crucial for the chooks this year

                The way they're going even I am a chance of running on for them.

                  We saw Nat do some fine edge running towards the end of last season resulting in him scoring a couple of tries

                    All our backrowers offer a point of difference
                    gus critchon power running game and one of the best in the comp - on his day
                    sitili unorthodox player but runs and hits hard in d
                    nat - a great defence and reliable player - will never be the star but reliable
                    Egan - energiser bunny but lacks the size and hands atm
                    Wong - looks like he will be the best of the lot, great line runner just needs some more time still only 20

                      A pretty fair assessment. I’m looking forward to seeing Wong’s development over the next few years.
