    News ‘Super sub’: Cameron Ciraldo explains why Connor Tracey won the fullback spot and how he plans on unleashing Blake Taaffe

    I don't mind Taaffe in a "super sub" role, but having both Taaffe and Hayward on the same bench might be unnecessary, particularly when Mann is back.

    Why did Critta play right centre? Did Ciraldo want to plug the right side defence?

    Fox

    I think fox is the type of winger who performs well in a team that's performing well. That's to say he scores tries others might not, but only when space is created for him. He's not the strong carries out of your own end type of winger. Given our left edge is proving a handful, he should do well.

    Hutchinson is a momentum killer

    Every second time he gets the ball it looks like he’s desperately trying not to drop it and not fall over. Then maybe he can think about what to do next. same in defence. I don’t think I’ve seen a player that gets tackled by themselves so much

    News Cameron Ciraldo Round 6 press Conference

    I don't know. He says he did some reps there, but most of the backline spends time training in different positions so injury cover can happen.

    I'm with you. I wasn't sold when we signed him but he seems to have one of the best footy IQ's in the team. I honestly believe he'd be a better 7 than Hutch. I'm just not sure about his kicking game.

    Hutchinson is a momentum killer

    Listening to the press conference makes me think he's consider making changes soon if the attack doesn't start executing. Said something along the lines of it "has to improve soon."

    Wasn’t he brought in to talk and organise the attack? I could forgive some of his lesser athletic and ball playing abilities if the attack didn’t look so lost every set. He also looks gassed all the time.

    Shaky under the high ball, gets out contested, constantly driven back in tackles, gets our sets off to a bad start. Is this the guy we want at fullback every week? He has speed and looks good when running but it rarely translates into executing a line break. He had some flashes of nice play...
