Rts toupou swap!

[Guest]

I would really like to see rts on the outside of Jennings. I think this combo would tear teams apart. Their speed and footwork would be near impossible to contain. ATM toupou is finding his feet and it is costing us tries. Until toupou is on his game or even during games the wingers should swap.

Then again SKD and toupou on te same side could be disastrous as they are both error prone weak in defense and don't exactly seem like the sharpest tools in the shed.

Very interesting post, and for that matter your response in that post was spot on too.

Nobody will ever see quality ball outside SKD.

Put mini there. Kill two birds with one stone.

You really answered your own question. I see your point but if as much as RTS and Jennings would be great on the same side I think we would become predictable in our attack and the opposition would target our right side. Taking in to account SBW also plays on the left side. In saying that I thought Cordner played very well last night and will only get better as long as his shoulder doesn't give way.

if topou is a fully blooded rleft sude winger and rts is not a winger, why down grade the one who is in his correct position for one who is just warming the position till the next redundancy at fullback?

BigMike, this is sooo true.
2 major observations last night.
1. RTS is wasted on the wing - he should be on the centre of the field - amazed how many metres he actually made - I thought all he did was step on the spot when going from dummy half.
2. This is compounded by being outside SKD. Last night he had RTS outside him and RTS stepped inside off his right foot. FMD

When Robbo sees the time is right, I feel Mini will swap with RTS and Mini can be the new Perret and get metres from dummy half. To move RTS to the left will be disruptive when the inevitable happens.

Old field is a moron and just as error prone as toupou is at the moment. At Least toupou may improve. Old field has had enough time and hasn't done anything. What about Henry? By memory he was big fast athletic in the air and didn't make too many mistakes???
