News Half chance: Hutchison finally gets first shot at No.7 jersey

[maroondog72]

We don't agree on alot of HB stuff like Jake Clifford for example lol. It's all good though, place would be boring without different opinions

I was right gut about Clifford though

 

[DogsOfWar1704]

Sexton leaked at least 4 try’s individually in Reggie’s hutch saved one and didn’t leak any you do the math

He set up 2 tries and scored one hutch didn’t.
Sexton was defending next to a prop playing back row and perham. I’d take sexy over hutch any day

I still think he has alot to offer. Hoping he replaces Townsend around the halfway mark of the season as he's on borrowed time.

Cool

 

[CrittaMagic69]

Anyone calling for Sexton over hutch obviously didn’t watch reggies today. While he’s a more creative half than Hutch in attack his defence is diabolical and with the pack we have we can’t afford to carry anyone defensively. If sexton plays FG today we lose that game by 40 plus it’s that simple.

I'm calling for Sexton over Burton

I'm calling for Sexton over Burton

I'm calling for any 5/8th that can do the job, doesn't matter who.

Nah won’t happen they dropped him back to pride and the blackhawkes are the feeder for the cows and they have some good young guns coming through. Jake is a bandaid for injuries.

It all starts with a half back. 5/8ths are just bonus halves. Without direction nothing changes. You could put Munster in this team and he’d do nothing.

Really? Out of character for you

That’s the key issue bro Burton has to go, but I don’t know if sexton will be that much of an upgrade particularly defensively.

Well at least Munster tries to do something.

But I get what you're saying and I will add we don't need just a HB, we need a whole spine.

We need props who can do the hard yards. Until that happens nothing changes. Halves need space to work.

Let's be honest, this year is a write off, ALL options should be tried out. We can't die wondering. We are going into the 10th year of shitness.

PS I thought you liked Burton lol or am I confused?

 

[Kennelnator]

Hutch out - Sexton In
Kiraz wing - Xerri centre
Wilson to replace injured JAC

Obviously bro, I do know football.

But big money couldn't even entice props to come to this mess of a team with no coach and no spine.

Id have Sexton over Hutch at 7..

If defence is the issue play Sexton and move Kikau to the right edge outside him and protect him. Preston better on left anyways.
Good coaches know how to do this. Eg Bennett getting Beau Scott to protect Soward.

Kikau is not a bodyguard type defender. He is a solid defender but lacks the lateral movement to be covering a weak defender.

Agree Preston is better on the Left. Has Kikau ever played on the right? I think both Kikau & Burton both left side players that don’t know where the right side is.

The left edge should be:
5. Xerri
4. Burton
11. Kikau
6. Hutchison

The right edge should be:
2. Kiraz
3. Crichton
12. Preston
7. Sexton (have nobody else-possibly Taaffe)

1. Tracey (if fit comes straight in)

13. Curran must start at lock and play as many minutes as possible. He was our best last night.

9. Mahoney was also one of our best but he needs to play 60minutes max. He need a rest.

Our number one issue last night, more so than the lack of a playmaker is clearly our lack of size and go forward in the middle. Whoever it is I don’t know but we need 4 big Props in the 17.

 

[Dognacious]

Sexton is better. He killed it in nsw cup this week, and Hutchinson played like a utility playing half, which he is

 

[wendog33]

Parra targetted that side on the edge in Cup: not thru the middle. 2nd row and centre had more to do with that busted defence than on Sexton.

Neither of them are the answer to our many problems but Hutch has less upside than Sexton. Ciro makes the call tho.

 

[Ant2611]

Hutchison is a 6 not a 7.

Yes and Burton not a 6. Seems simple and now a necessity to make these changes. Hutch 6 sexton 7 xerri 3 kiraz 2 Burton reserves. But cerealdud won't make any changes apart from addo carr not playing. Or after what I saw yesterday he may still put him on next week.
