Rumour Lachlan Lewis

[Spoonman84]

No one thinks we'll get or deserve compensation for a backup off contract half.. But there's no reason it can't help open up a dialogue to see what forwards they want taken off their books to free up cap space and sort out their squad imbalance etc. We might as well while we have them on the phone..

I don’t really see what bearing Lewis would have on that though. We would be interested either way.

A gesture of good will giving them Lewis for half a season might mean we get preference to negotiate with one of their forwards over another club.

If true that Canberra want Lachlan then it's time for us to take a page out of Melbourne's book and see who we can get back in return. All these guys that would let him go for a Big mac meal deal or a dirty nappy pull your heads in......you guys would be the first complaining that we don't have enough depth if the situation arouse.

This situation (of trading Lewis to Canberra) certainly arouses some on here! lol

Pick Lachey @ 6 and make him Captain. Avocado can play fullback and Wakeham can play water runner for Mounties. Hoppa to 7 with his slow legs but silky hands. Dietz to the wing, Meeney to Lock and Flange in the 9.

To some on here that will sound MENTAL, which is exactly how I feel about FBaz selections every Tuesday.

Just jokes.. except the bit about Lachey at 6 and Captain..

Some here would say that we did the Raiders a favour when we signed him from them in 2016.

Honestly, although he is not the stellar player we thought he might have been after his initial performances in an under achieving side, at least what you see is what you get and he actually does put in an effort. To blame him for a lot of our problems is unfair. We have consistently under performed for the last few years and it is a host of players who have not been quite good enough to get us up the table. That aside, coaching efforts have consistently been average. I am afraid that Lachlan may only ever be a good reserve grader and to ask anything more might be too much. Depth is important.

What does Wakeham do more of than Lewis?

 

[ElMagic92]

Trade him for a few litres of that Canberra Milk to make our boys big and strong

you blokes are clueless dopes. Just meat heads most of you.

Hahahahahah...why??

 

[KLil]

Anyone thinking Lewis is some kind of bargaining chip that will make the Raiders give up a decent forward is kidding themselves. With holding the fact about how average he is he is also off contract at the end of the season. No team is going to give up anything decent for that.

Not even a disgruntled forward who is agitating for a move?

I know it's been discussed but Could we not use Lewis in the lock position similar to that of Victor Radley? Strong Defence and can be used as somewhat of a link between halves? What else do we have to loose this year

Fuk me dead Lewis can not tackle in the middle , he tackles only low which is predominantly on a edge
When teams target him close to the line he has been found out every time

Do you want the Raiders Lime stuff?

They would only want him for depth. A halves combo of Wighton and Lewis would be diabolical.

Sam Williams will stay first choice and Lewis would be backup therefore I don’t think they offer up much.

The only advantage we would get would be a roster spot

My pet hate. Lewis at lock

Locks still have to run the fucking ball !!!!

He has no running game. Nil. Zilch. Nada

Hey Stevo, stop talking sense

 

[Berries]

Seriously don’t get the hate Lewis gets. Absolute chameleons here. Bag a player then plays a good game then praises him. He does better then most of our buys.. tell you one thing he saves a try a game with his defence . Won’t be surprised if he goes up another level elsewhere

Never had a singular good play let alone a good game Lmao

You seriously comparing him to Radley?
Radley is a ball of muscle anda maniac.
Lewis is a good defender? For every great one on one tackle he makes he misses one, gives away repeat sets and is always last man up off the ground

I think we resigned him the next year for pretty decent coin too cause he played well that debut year.
