Round 14 - Dogs vs Dragons - Team List and Game Discussion Thread

[Gabs]

Lee is a winger being played in the Centres. He can't defend and its causing havoc inside and outside him. At least if he's on the wing, he can be taught to use the sideline as cover. Similar to Naqaima before Cleary turned up to the Tigers and stuck him on the wing. Lee would make a good winger because he can finish.

If we had a decent option at fullback, Hoppa in the centres and Lee on the wing would be a very strong combo in 2018. I am thinking it might even be worth BMoz going to Fullback, Marcelo and Lee on the wings and JMoz and Hoppa in the centres. A better balanced team I think.

I'm guessing Chase is kicking the goals too

We can only hope so because Moses won't be kicking them.

Do you remember Lee on the wing earlier in the year? Bloody awful.

He needs to be next to someone like BMoz to keep yelling at him how to defend. Eventually it'll sink in and he'll be much better for it.

Lee is not a winger, what an absolute joke.

He's actually a Centre playing Centre.

I genuinely don't understand how someone can say Lee is a winger and not a centre lol. He has the physcial presence along with the footwork, offload, strength and agility that make him perfectly suited to centre.

 

[Vlasnik]

I don't know about you guys but I want the Dogs to get flogged just in time for Tuesdays members meeting!!!

 

[Gabs]

He's actually a Centre playing Centre.

He only ever played wing in first grade at Canberra scoring 12 tries in 15 appearances. Picked up 4 tries in one game last year.

If his defence wasn't so poor has has all the assets to be a good centre in attack. Until his defence improves out of sight, too much of a liability.

What is he Marley?

He filled in on the wing but has always played centre and has the physical attributes of a centre.

He may have the attributes and his attack is good no question, but his defence is rubbish and he is being exposed every week!

 

[CrittaMagic69]

He's a centre, it is fairly obvious.

Defence is rubbish on the wing as well. He needs time to learn that's all.

What do we do about his defensive issues? Hope for the best???

 

[GoTheDoggies]

Benji isn't playing we are no chance

Well you sure as shit don't throw him on the wing, that won't fix anything. He is also very sloppy under the highball.

When we bought Brenko he had obvious issues in defence that Des should of known about. The most obvious move to make was to play the experienced Brett on his outside instead of fucking Holland. Any coach with half a brain would of made that call. Playing alongside Brett would of done a world of good for him and our defence. Obviously there would still be issues but the more he plays at centre the more he will improve.

People also need to stop acting like it's all Brenkos fault for our poor defence on that edge. Our forwards can't contain the oppositions forwards so their outside backs are usually hitting us off the back of a shitload of momentum. Holland and Frawley are also just as poor as Lee defensively and this also plays a part. Out right edge defence has been fucked for a while now no matter who plays there, so theres also obvious issues with our defensive systems.

I think thats our best backline with what we've got. How can an armchair commentator see that but a man who is paid 1mil a year and lives and breathes it cant is beyond me

I thought the only time he played wing was mid game when Holland went down. Other than that he has been in the centres hasn't he?

Seen him score 4 tries in a game for Raiders on the wing.
He also let in 4 or more. Too slow to turn and chase. Was easily exploited with a few deft kicks.
