  • Left centre and goalkicker.

    I’m not writing Crichton and Flanno off, however this is going to be our Achilles heel all season. Angus looked like he was in slow motion and Flanno wasn’t far off with his kicks. Thoughts?

    I like Satilli at cantre. Way faster. Flanno will improve.
    our defence suffered from jwh and his penalties.
    jake favoured kearys side all night.

      Have to agree with Gus at centre. We lose him as a backrower.

      The 3 kicks Flanno missed weren't easy, made worse bcaz SST slotted 2 standard shots. I would keep Flano as GK for now, but he's got 1 month to practice.

        If we're gonna be playing Sitili in the centres we'll need to send him to "catch the ball" school.

          It’s tough to defend at centre. I don’t think Sitili is up for it. Don’t judge Angus after three quarters of a game. It will take time.

          Collins was all quality today in his few minutes. Love his hard running.

            I would have Flanno taking the shorter kicks and SST taking the shots from the sideline/longer kicks.

              Maybe a bit of work with Iku and Lindsay will sort him out.

                Well it is their first game this year, so most of us probably expected some kinks. Flanagans kicking will get better. Remember how bad Latrell was at the start of 2018? I don’t think Crichton is a centre. I think just move B Morris to left centre (he has been training there this season as well) and put Hall/Ikuvalu on the right wing. At least with that Morris is a lot more suited to that position and has the attacking flair and defensive capabilities to succeed there, and Crichton offers more in the forwards. Unless we get J-Moz, then just slot him into left centre.

                  We play the Kikau Panthers in round one at their home ground.
                  If we play as dumb as we did today we'll get beaten for sure.

                  Radley lined up the attacker, "half a day" to do it...then tackled him in the jaw. Ridiculous.
                  JWH the same. More ridiculousness.
                  JWH grabbed the marker's leg ...another 30metres of field position lost. Totally ridiculous.

                  Self-destructing.
                  Thanks to SST and Keary...the day was saved.

                    Not 100% sold on angus beef at centre but I think Flanagans kicking will be fine, he looked more natural than latrell ever did, just needs some confidence.

                      Agree.

                        Not sold on Angus as a centre at all. B Morris hopefully starts the season there with either hall or icky on the wing.

                          Crichton had bricks in his boots!!totally ineffective, slow stepping and slow impact running. SOS left centre...Flanno is a decent goal kicker. At least practice will improve that. Crichton NO WAY to slow totally in effective. When we had a chance to spin it he basically stood still and was pushed back 10 metres.

                            Fill up your glass mate. It’s always half empty.
                            Many plays won us that game.
                            Our first loss you will no doubt remind us all that we are no good without Latrell.
                            I hope you are not too disappointed by the win.
                            I can’t stand negative people.

                              Way to go with introducing us all to some new terminology.

                              It’s pretty predictable that Crichton was going to cop it on here unless he scored 3 tries. But yes some on here know more than Robbo.
