I wouldn't swap Crichton for any other centre in the world. His only defensive error he made was the herbie try. Only error i remember him making the whole world cup. I've watched every minute of Samoa's games. Your summation of him is way off the mark
Yeah I like him. Best part about him is he's young asf, he should only get better and better.

Hey can Luai play for the Kiwis? Lol...he's got some Maori in him coz he played for the Maori Allstars I wanna pinch him and boot Brown lol

The more i see of Thomson the less impressed - he just doesnt do enough - is rarely the first contact in a tackle - if the Dogs were to sign another genuine first grade middle for 23 Thomson might become the highest paid nsw cup player in history. Or he might improve with quality coaching
Yeah even when he comes on fresh he gets dominated/pushed back without much retaliation.

Think about opening the other eye? Go watch the 1st English try again. You must have missed it.

The one where Milford missed Williams and Whitehead scored? Yeah I saw it, not sure who would blame that try on Crichton

Wasn't Milf that missed him but thats the one. Milf is the inside guy, where's your guy and wheres Whitehead (bottom right)? Crichton is so far in front of the line fishing for an intercept that once Milf has to make that tackle - its a free run to the line.

And thats Papalii top right. Gives you an idea where the line D line should be.

And to backtrack a bit - didn't samoa get done by 60 something points? And Crichton didn't miss a tackle? Didn't watch that game so have to take your word on it - but bro - that sounds pretty out there. But tell ya Herbie took his lunch money real bad at least twice in the game in pure 1 on 1's. Herbie is not exactly a stepper - -just a big guy. So whats Crichtons excuse?

Say it again. If we pay $700k+ for Crichton - may as well put a sign outside of the Dogs Club - Looking for Fckwits - U found the Right Place.

Bro...long post. I'm too hangover to read. I agree Crichton is not worth 700k plus.. it is a risk to buy him as a FB no matter he's talent. All I'm saying is he has played fkn awesone this world cup. I don't count the first game [emoji23]

Yeah I know you didn't say that.

I was just posing the question....shouldn't have Replied to your post to save confusion :grinning:

Normally a winger wouldnn't be considered but Fox is getting our Club so much good will and positive vibes that it makes sense to harness that wave for the club's benefit.

He won't fail as co-captain of that we can be sure :grinning:
I agree that Co Captains appear the best solution. I did see in the Gus Twitter thread that he doesn’t like the idea, so my guess is co captains won’t happen.

hahaha dont think so
Won't be a fullback or centre spot available for him so it's going to be awkward when he turns up next preseason :/

Atleast Spencer is going to Dragon.
