Burton and Averillo are the best halves for dogs 2022 onward

[Oldpanther]

Trent Barrett seems to think Flanno is the dogs version of Nathan Cleary but he lacks the skill, execution in any area of a halfbacks game.

His kicking game is very simply an almost chip to the fullback/win on the 5th.

He practically refuses to engage the defence to improve his passing game.

Averillo against the Storm had a sublime kicking game when playing as dominant half and the dogs enjoyed their best momentum all year for about 15 minutes and is a noted ball runner while Flanno let that down with a kick caught in goal for a 7 tackle set when he wasn't really under pressure.

Hopefully people don't see it as a disrespect post Flanno has just been bugging me so far this year. Hopefully Barrett has him come good to the benefit of the team.

I agree with you, if Averillo can develop this season. I have no dramas with him and Burton next year. I can see why the Roosters punted flanno.

 

[Mr. Ditkovich]

I agree.

If Averillo can play like this consistently, and Flanagan doesn’t improve, Burton and Averillo will be the way forward.

 

[Donkey Slayer]

Young bbo will show him up by a mile avo is to be fullback

The 15minutes was Thompson and thats it

He was so good. Still the halfback should be first to take advantage but Averillo seemed to have the intent and execution over Flanno.

I think I was the only dogs supporter on this forum who was against the Flanagan signing.

And one of the rare ones to keep faith in jake in 1st grade.

Jake is still learning and today was much better

 

[Nate DAWG]

Flanno was poor tonight but Avo was only good for about 20 minutes. Unless there is improvement i am not sure if either are the answer

 

[Teddybear]

Put avo at 7, looks great when first receiver or takes charge, shit happens, he is brilliant the x factor we need, 100% must be avo at 7 and Burton at 6 next year

 

[Scoooby]

Yup, Flanno very underwhelming for the big hype to date.!!

Halves need their forwards to perform. I would've expected Flanno to step up when Thompson won you momentum but it didn't happen but Averillo went at it with purpose.

 

[Burgler]

He played good for 20mins of an 80min game. Let back to back tries. Kafusi try was really poor defensive decision. Kicked it out on full.

Yes he had some really good moments and I'm not saying he doesn't have the potential. BUT we are 4 games in to the season and after the first 2 people were calling for Avos head.

As good as he can be in attack, defence needs ALOT of work. He isn't comfortable in the front line,.doesn't seem like a very vocal player either which comes with confidence I guess.

I wouldn't be thinking of 2022 halves this early

 

[Dogzzz of War]

They are both 5/8ths in my opinion.

I agree to a point bro. IMO, at this stage in his career Averillo is a good 14. He is very inconsistent. In his good 20 minutes, Avo played much better then Flanno, but Avo also had some really poor moments. Flanno was disgraceful tonight in all areas of his game

 

[JUNKYARD DOGS]

I can’t really argue at the moment. All the Avo haters Will though. He’s got a lot of talent this fella. Give him time

Excuse me! I hated the **** before we signed him and got angry when we signed him.

Him and crapa can fuck right off to Bondi and their chai lattes and the pedicures

 

[alchemist]

not what I think, simply what I hope...

1. Averillo;
2. Addo-Carr;
3. Allan;
4. Schoupp;
5. Cotric;
6. Burton;
7. Flanagan.

The days of an organising half back is long gone and thats all Flanno is. He is not the mould of what a halfback is with the new rules in place.

and yet, organisational abilities is Adam Reynolds best attribute and Milford's lack of said abilities will see him moved on from the Broncos
