All those good and great half combo's had one controlling and organising half and one running/instinct and eyes up half- To have two of the same type won't work - one has to change and that has to be Walker.

I frigging love Sammy and the way he plays the game. I also think Manu will be a sensation at 6 and would love us to win the next 4 and at least push Penrith to the 80th minute if we were to lose.
I hope Walker is our 7 for 10 years but he may see a bit of reserves in the next few months

You can see how the Cronk and Keary combo worked - Cronk the controlling and organising half and Keary playing his instinct and eyes up footy so neither got in each others way and their roles were defined - no blurred lines on what their roles were.
Chook Pen Favourite the Hutchinator is a controlling or organising half - the only other half back with this trait is Sandon Smith.
The Keary and Walker Combo will still have issues going forward due to them being the same type of player - Whether they can change either of them into a controlling or organising is to be seen.
One would say it is too late for Keary to change so it will have to be Walker.
Hutch can’t control a wet paper bag… still he’s glued on to a Trent Robinson lineup… needs to be cut this round for good now we are almost back to full strength
Robbo will have my full backing once he does this

Manu killed ot at 5/8 against the draqueens last time we played them. Hopefully he does it again.
Like everyone I'm amazed that Sammy has been dropped but something needs to be done regarding our attack. If we win on ANZAC day its a good move if we don't its dumb. Hopefully this doesn't come down to goalkicking
How Hutch retains his spot over Turpin I will never knowLast edited by SupermanSupportsEasts4Eva; 04-18-2023, 08:51 PM.

Can you say which one's Keary and Walker are
As for the Mercurial Hutchinator - Cool Calm and Clutch Hutch is Da Man
You want Coach Robinson gone though

Who knows what's going on, but there's something not right at the roosters. If you have a look at the last 4 seasons and i understand injuries have hurt us. Last year we should have been top 4 the great experiment went on far too long and it cost us big time in the finals. In all honesty have a look at our roster we should have flogged a couple of teams that have beaten us. I wonder if uncle nick has picked up the phone ultimately, it's his football team not robbos. I don't think walker has been going to badly. Hutchinson is hopeless but he gets a run can't work it out he must have something on Robinson.

Keary is good enough to play either half… but he is best as a running 6… best on the edge… where he can use his pace… though he has lost a step… which is why he isn’t as effective anymore
Walker is a scheming ad lib unorthodox 7… a young Alfie Langer if you like… he’s not an edge player… and his level is not predictable… that’s not his fault… he’s only 20
I never said I wanted Robbo gone… just his love child removed from the squad… but things have also been getting a bit tiresome around here these last 18 months don’t you think?
I know you don’t ever wish to criticise this club or anyone associated with it… but that does not necessarily make you the best fan… at some point you’re just enabling the underachievement

I reckon walker will be back in a few weeks
When he’s on he looks like he is playing footy in the park
he sets up amazing tries, and kicking goals
just needs to work on kicking game, I think his defence has been fine though
to me it still feels like abit of a cop out, radley is very Lucky to still be there, and manu and sualli need to step up! But to a young kid he might be be okay to allow him to work on his game!
all though who kicks goals?
Many thought Watson would not come back into the 17 - but now with hutch still around very keen to get Watson back asap
Hutch is lucky to be there
momo gives me no confidence whatsoever - was supposed to be a solo defence centre ( turned out he could not defend and not catch a back - hopefully he has his confidence back )
with players on notice and depth in positions now players will need to perform or Risk being placed back in res
