Official Stephen Crichton signs with the Bulldogs 2024

[CQDog]

I can say, he's coming.

Pls be your usual trolling…

Sam Perrett moved to fullback and killed it.

Crichton has far better attributes, I cannot see a scenario where he would flop at FB. Also he does not fall to the ground like Tedesco.

Averillo is not safe at the back and he doesn't eat enough metres as of right now. Crichton is fitter than fatrell and can go the whole 80mins.

Probably overpriced, but he is a talent. We dont have a FB at present, so he would be welcome if the price is right.

100% and he has played alot of fullback in juniors. Has also filled in at fullback for panthers over the year, young, fit and is a winner, he knows how to win.

Killed it!!!
I couldn't stand Perret at fullback letting sooo manys trys in and clapping to himself when he fucked up.
Soooo frustrating!

He's a good player and a great athlete in open space, but I think he's a far better centre than a fullback and worry that we'd pay too much for him.

Not a fan when he played fullback he never backed up and didnt have any xfactor.
Because we dont have a halfback who can game manage we need a fullback who can set up plays.

Definitely but there is no one!

We cant just rely on the halves to create attacking plays the game has change.
The fullback needs to help in attack to be more of a threat otherwise too predictable.

Pretty much how I feel.

I see him as a great athlete. Looks good at centre in a deadly team.

Tago, Burton in their first seasons in nrl looked elite at centre too. Both high quality players though just saying it’s a lot easier to look good in centre there.

Look at Remis at storm…

He is clearly a very good athlete, young, fairly fast and strong.

That said his replaced I think Staines at fullback when edwards was out and Staines was hooked and didn’t show me much.

The only positive on the gamble to me is if he failed at 1 it’s an elite centre still less than staggs

That said I’d prefer to get an elite gun 1/7 than risk again. Like we finally replaced Ennis with Mahoney we haven’t replaced barba or an elite 7 since old noddy.

 

[CrittaMagic69]

Look at Panther being **** today, don't want anymore of them here

He knows how to be carried by a gun team.

 

[EL Hefe]

Throw the kitchen sink at him, no literally I don't want him anywhere near my club

Crichton has been okay at fullback, certainly had his moments but never stood out on a consistent basis. I wouldn't complain if we signed him. But I hope it wouldn't be for crazy money and would worry with the big price tag, the expectation would make things harder for him.

 

[piggy]

No doubts Crighton is athlete and a gun in a top team like the Panthers. when he has space and time he can annihilate oppositions...don’t know how he would go in our team.....and you would want him to ball play for 800k a year...

 

[Ewan McGrady]

If we don’t think Averillo is the one, surely we try Fox or Kiraz there first before breaking our cap on a hope and a prayer with Crichton.

 

[Weak Gutted Dog]

He is bog average bahaha, he is a big game player those are the facts, he has done it in two GFs

Totally agree.
The bigger the moment the better he plays.

 

[piggy]

I can say, he's coming.

I think the Dolphins would be going hard for him

 

[Cook]

I’d take him. Will only get better with age
