Roosters apparantly win race for Domonic Young

[Vasco]

Fair dink mate Paulo was really good tonight - two tries - yeah caught out a bit in defence early on but **** - very young - he is a keeper - finds the line as good as BMoz

Not sure about that.

[stringaz]

Not sure about that.

Very Bmozesque tho, a lot of skilled handling in that couple of seconds to find the turf. Footwork too.

Somehow I think Bmoz would have scored the try where Jaxon was held up He is showing good signs though

What I saw of Dom Young in yesterday's game against skeletor's new team did not fill me with confidence. There's a lot of work to be done to get him to where he will need to be as a Rooster. At least he has some speed though I think even there lies some room for improvement.

[Intercept]

Not sure about that.

Don't forget that BMoz is about 40 and has been retired a couple of years now.

[The Lip]

He scored 2 tries but not exactly really good. I wasn’t sold on his finishing of the second try either. I have no idea why he didn’t attempt to bring it even a bit closer to the posts rather than taking it out wider?

I actually do think he has potential but to equal him to BMoz is taking it a bit too far. In fact it’s disrespectful to BMoz.

Not trying to be disrespectful to the great man RT - I think you probably know that and are just being a bit of a cock

He is isn't he. I think some are taking my comment a little out of context. BMoz found the line extremely well, defended extremely well - was unbelievable under the high ball especially on our own line in defence and was pretty much an ornament to the game.

I don't think Paulo is as good as BMoz - he's played three games hahaha. However 4 tries in the last 2 games - he can finish - and finish very well by the looks of it. I'm happy with what I see from this guy early doors. He's very young and will only improve further - I think the early signs are great. Just trying to give him a wrap.

he's had work to do to score all his tries for us so far. It doesn't have to be a long run to be a worthy try and a good finish - firstly it's about putting yourself in the right place to finish and probably that's the most important thing a winger needs to be good at. Even on those tries last night he had defenders to beat and over power.

I’m starting to like Paulo. Mostly because he got treated shit at south’s and we got him and he’s gone all right first few weeks

What are we going to do with Joey m, Joey s, tupou, teddy, young, Paulo and that other bloke from England

It's a very good question that one - right now - small sample size I know but the three games Paulo and Young have played this year you gotta say Young isn't a walk up start to take his spot.

[RoosterBooster]

Dom has been a centre coming through, perhaps Paulo remains on the wing , Dom inside him and Manu to 5/8th ?

We dumping Keary already?

I didn't like the signing of Young, especially on big money, but I hope it works out.
I really like Paulo, he got a rough deal at souths because he missed a few of the rubbish spec balls Mitchell threw to him, but he has got plenty of ability.
I'm still not sure where Suaalii's future lies.... when Robbo was asked about him last night he almost said he has plenty to LEARN.... but reigned it in to say he has plenty MORE IN HIM.
He has only played 3 games at centre, and making defensive errors, mainly through over reading.
Toops is a champion but can't keep going forever, so Young could be his replacement.
Joey or teddy could take over from Keary if h is future is affected by injury.
Plenty of possibles
Teddy, Toops, Joey,Suaalii,Paulo, Keary right now, but...
It could be
Teddy/Joey
Paulo/Young
Joey/Young/Smith
Suaalii/ Young/Momi ??
Toops/Young
Keary/Teddy/Joey

If Keary and Toops go it could be
Teddy/Joey
Paulo
Suaalii
Smith
Young
Joey/Teddy,
anyway it's good to look to the future.

Teddy could definitely play 6 - he's the best 1 in the game which makes moving him seem ridiculous but at 6 he would be great. He now has a passing game and a good attacking deft short kicking game and I have to assume with focused training on it a long kicking game.

we would miss his last line of defence and kick diffusion most if we moved him I think.

[Recky62]

so , we got him huh....that'll send Gordy into conniptions

I’m definitely a cock mate.

No different to the rest of us on here. Its why we are on here after all right?

I just don’t rate JP in the same league as BMoz.
