Averillo to test open market before extending.

[underdogsontop2246]

We need to resign Burton, Alamoti and BBO.

Averillo and Flanagan can go fuck themselves, like the soft ***** they are.

Sorry mate but he’s no Ben Barba. Barba was a gun, pure and simple. It’s a shame he couldn’t keep his shit together off the field.

Was watching a highlights package of his great season with us just the other day.

I had forgotten just how SENSATIONAL he was .... have to be close to the best season i have ever seen from an individual player.

 

[Psycho Doggie]

@Mutt Dafty Jake needs you

 

[Bluebody]

Too premature for him to be realising any true value. He needs to be consistent at another level where he defends and attacks with intensity for 80 mins, and doesn't go missing for half a game.

 

[Bob dog]

Hes not really proven in any position yet so interesting to see who will gamble on his potential, which he has, but potential in what position?

He was progressing at centre and can play wing, he's a great adaptable back

Hope this doesn’t mean we are chucking S Crighton a fuck load of money

I can't help but feel any club that signs this guy to a big money multi year contract is gonna regret it.

100% Crichton would not be worth the big dollars.

JAC straight to fullback, bye Averagello

Move the world's best winger to fullback. No way!
Burton and Kikau will give the Foxx even more space out wide for a 20+ try season next year.
Let's Trot!

Kids too soft for FG. Moses Mbye 2.0

Sadly think the same.

 

[senshidog]

Just a few facts:
Averillo has played 10 games at fullback.
We won 4 of those games.
He scored in 5 of those games (including 2 doubles) totalling 7 tries from 10 games at fullback.

Sure there is a lot of room for improvement, but the bloke needs more time with a quality spine, and I reckon with a solid preseason we will start to see what he's truly capable of at the back.

Yeah, he probably deserves to start the season there but if he has a couple of shockers or if opposition expose his weaknesses, he may be done cause he aint going to get another crack in the halves or centres

Yeah I’d like to see Fox given a go in the 1.

 

[D0GMATIC]

I think there will be a bit of pressure on him next year to retain the fullback job. With a new coach who has said its a clean slate when he arrives ,Jake is not guaranteed the job either.
I doubt we will keep him.He will go well in the super league and probably come back a better player.

 

[D0GMATIC]

There was talk he wanted to play fullback, before he arrived at the Dogs

 

[diddly]

Averillo has ability to be a good first grade player and can take advantage of space but until he demonstrates a commitment to get heavily involved in a game and not shy away from the heavy physicality of the game his value to a club will be limited.

Hes more than a great winger he has vision and speed and ball playing ability on top of that he can put in good kicks as well, just a natural with the ball, we know as he already stated he wants to go to the back, im sure he has more of an idea than any of us.

 

[albatross]

Let's see what a new coach can do with Avo, but for me he lacks belief in himself and doesn't read the play very well. Fixing one problem could fix the other, but drop him real quick if there's no obvious improvement IMO.

 

[craigo]

@Mutt Dafty will be devastated if he leaves
