Opinion Flanagan’s future

[Baby Blues]

I think it might be time for Flanagan to understand he just isn’t good enough to be a half in the NRL. He has above average defence and he should look at how similar players transitioned from the halves into other positions. Good examples are Kurt Mann & Lachlan Croker who play hooker and lock respectively which I think with a full off season are positions he could play. With Oloapu debuting this weekend, bench utility might be Kyle’s spot for us for the remainder of the year

I'd think a bit higher than bench utility, personally. Flano looked better at hooker a few weeks ago than Mahoney has in the last month. If Mahoney can't produce a blinder on the weekend, I think it's time to give him a stint in Cup and try Flano at hooker. Less errors, better defence, equally efficient service. What's the down side? Sure, we'd miss Reed's 40/20s, but he only kicks so many because he attempts a dozen a game.

Flanno's defining weakness as a footballer is his inability to identify and exploit weaknesses in an opposition's defensive structures. It's why, despite his attitude to training and his great defence, he's lost the 7 again. It's the same reason he won't be selected to play at 9.

Are you saying Reed hasn't been the worst hooker in the comp for the past month?

100%

Reed lacks that ability too. We all know Moses and Brown were calling the shots at parra and he has showed very little vision or creativity this year.

Then who has been? He's been awful, fam.

You actually don’t watch games do you?

just admit it its ok to say so this is a safe space

 

[Dognacious]

Mahoney has been poor but I'd expect they will allow him to play himself into form. Flanno was OK at hooker but can't be more than an injury sub.

 

[Gunnasmc]

Not getting into who has been or who hasn’t, personally I’m happy with him. I think he just needs to settle into his role with added weight of co-captaincy.
Once Flanno is gone and someone creative replaces him he will go back to the player you say he was at parra, one that has to worry about his position only.

Yes, I do. You never make credible arguments. Always personal attacks with you.

I’ll give you an argument reed is staying and flano is gone lol

Difference is that we know that Reed is capable of doing great things, whereas we know what Flanno is capable of and it ain't great things by any sctretch of the imagimation.

Lol what evidence doe you have that Reed is capable of doing great things? His biggest claim to fame is being the least important spine player in Parra's losing grand final team.

Neither should be part of our future plans, to be honest. Did we keep the receipt when we bought him to replace JMK?

Yeah, drop the captain. That’s what Cam will do.

Hey what??

 

[Dogmonster]

Maybe a creepy shoe salesman.
But he would need to learn left and right.

 

[Flanagun]

Hey what??

Did we keep the receipt for Reed? A refund would be nice.
