Who comes in for JAC next week?

[Eesma]

Mate there's being realistic and delusional.

It is what it is.

We have a rookie FB who is just a spot filler in 23
We have a centre learning his trade in the halves.
We have the worst HB in the league
We have an awesome Hooker who has to carry the whole team.

When I read this I thought, "Surely Flanno's only the 2nd worst HB in the comp" but FMD even Tanah Boyd has a try assist to his name.

Not only the worst HB, might be the worst FG player.

 

[YearOfTheTrot]

I’m hoping Skelton does he looks like he’s gonna be a star in the future

 

[Benno Bulldog]

more like chinese burns

More like side burns

 

[InGusWeTrust]

I’d like to see Skelton get a run, but if I had to bet, I’d say Burns will get the gig, purely because Alamoti needs an experienced player outside him. Casey or Skelton would be my pick, although leaning more towards Casey as I don’t think Skelton is very quick?

 

[Letstrot]

It will be Burns as we need experience on that edge

We all saw how we got raped down that side once the Fox was gone

 

[Sword]

Gus has just announced Fox likely to be out 8 weeks

That's a snail edge though

[halfcast]

skelton?

 

[Kempsey Dog]

anyone else feeel like the fox could never be the same after this injury? syndesmosis is pretty how ya going

Fox has too much confidence he will be back and won't let nerves get the better off him. Only issue is patience and not rushing him back

 

[Bazildog]

 

[Noosa Dog]

That's a snail edge though

Exactly, who is going to chase down any line breaks on that side

 

[Letstrot]

That's a snail edge though

Indeed it is

Maybe throw Burns next to Jake and Kiraz next to Alamoti

 

[Noosa Dog]

Maybe throw Burns next to Jake and Kiraz next to Alamoti

That’s the one downside to Alamoti, he needs a player with pace outside him to be effective, for both chasing down line breaks and helping ice any breaks we make on that side

 

[Kempsey Dog]

That's a snail edge though

Blake Wilson got wheels but definitely not ready. We have to cop having a slow backline except for Avo now

Casey?

Casey?

Casey might come in. My preferred options is Burns FB, Perham left wing

Hard not to get nervous about Casey after his horror debut, although to his credit he has rebounded well from it since.

I like him at Centre

He smoked the bunnies in that game he played Centre

On the wing poor guy had the worst debut in history against panthers

He played fb v titans and was a mixed bag

He’s got pace though
