Centre options next year

[doggieaaron]

Ha...outside of JMoz & Hoppa, Holland & Olive are the next best centres at the club.
In fact wasn't it just a few weeks ago a lot "experts" on here were calling for Olive and/or Holland t o replace Hoppa?

To be fair hollands horrendous defence has come from left field and very surprising,he would had been ideal but he has been terrible which is disappointing

Signed till 2020 with Raiders a few months ago.

Extended last year till end of 2019.

I’d take Oldfield

I don't know why, his defence was terrible last season and this season when he came on to replace Lichaa he missed tackles and gave up at least 2 line breaks I saw.
Anyway Olive is certainly no better in defence.

Doesn't anyone think Marshall king would be a top centre? Really good in defence, probably our quickest player, has great footwork so would be really dangerous one on one out wide, i think its a no brainer, not sure why Pay hasn't tried him there yet?

I don't think he knows the meaning of the word attack,defensively contributes,but best of bench,still doesn't read a game for a half

Too small for centre. Can you imagine him up against guys like dugan, latrell, leilua, inglis, chambers etc, he'd get monstered. I think him and brown interchanging at hooker next year could be something good.

We need to find a centre urgently. Holland needs to go back to super-sub.

Hoppa had a blinder but geez holland looked the goods at fullback in isp

 

[TalDog]

Willie Tonga
Nigel Vagana
There's 2 quality centres

Willie talau was my fav

Please can someone explain why the fun pay doesn't give Brown a go.... ant believe he doesn't offer more than Marshall or licha

 

[Mr Invisible]

Do we have any centres in lower grades?

Some good ones coming through Ball/Matts/Flegg.

Averillo, Fuatimau brothers, Picken, Harding, Dillon.
Winters-Chang from Kebra Park.

Just hard to know if they will develop.

He was tried at Hooker early in the year,experiment didn't work

What about Robert Jennings? He killed it yesterday against us with a hat trick and his stats for this year has been outstanding. We were at one stage linked to go after him when the rumours came out that Souths didn’t want him. Who knows now.

He was good at 9 he’s playing in the halves out of necessity,hooker is his ideal position imo once we get a half to partner lewis

We've got some real turnstiles in our backline.

 

[KLil]

I’d take Oldfield

You shouldn't..

Bahahahaha I don't why I find it funny but it must be the perfect analogy...

 

[KLil]

Willie talau was my fav

Talau was good.. Built like a brick. His son goes real good in the juniors.

 

[M4cca]

His defence and service was good. If lichaa is gonna be out of the side we're probably gonna have to use two hookers

 

[KiwiDog7]

You shouldn't..

Why because he’s fast? Lol

Sorry Des

 

[KLil]

Why because he’s fast? Lol

Sorry Des

Because his not even that good bra.. Gets knocked out a lot, injured a fair bit and is nothing more than a back-up. His quick ill give him that but so was brett howland.
