Cordner and Cronk on NRL 360 tonight

[2 weeks]

[Bowzy]

Cronk is starting to rub off on Boyd a fair bit. That was probably the most well spoken he has been in an interview. He still had his moments. He looked pissed off when the lab predictor had roosters finishing 3rd at the end of the season. Glad to see he thinks highly of our team this year.

On the same show they had Ponga from Newcastle saying how Pearce was asking him about certain moves etc. The difference and confidence to back your own ability and grab the bull by the horn will be immense!!

If that doesn't get you excited for the season then i don't know what will. I really feel Cronk will help develop players like Latrell and Manu and i cant wait for his pin point low cross field kicks to Daniel Tupou's wing instead of those mundane boring bombs that Pearce puts up every set.

also noticed when he named players who can influence he spoke of manu, fergo, latrell, teddy and tupou. confirms that is what is happening and no robinson?

Moreso that Robinson is an old dog and doesn't need to know new tricks.

However id say he will only come into the squad through injury or Fergo losing favour at some point.

Two you've left out were among the first Cronk mentioned - Matterson and Cordner. I didn't hear Tupou but maybe missed that.

yeah i think youre right, about that. kinda assumed tupou would be starting anyway. but him him to mention matterson must mean hes doing something right this pre season

would really like manu to be either inside or outside someone that doesnt make constant errors in defence and attack just to help him out and teach him defence at nrl standard

[Louis N]

Cronk was emphasizing his ability to bring others into the game but conceded he would not be the lynchpin once the season develops. He praised the skills of Cordner, Matterson, Mitchell, Ferguson, Manu and Tedesco out the back. Like a lot on this forum Manu's defense has been questioned, along with Fergos. But obviously Cronk considers these guys our attacking kingpins. And it is a hint that Manu is a first grade choice at this stage. I thought Robinson did well enough in our first trial.

[Freddy]

Cronk with a nice little undercover dig at Pearce there, talking about composure and bringing other players into the game when the game is on the line.

gives you an idea what Robbo has been drilling into Cronk surrounding his role within our structure this year.

yeh not putting a non contested bomb up with 3mins to go in a semi....
