News The Dally M leader and two-time reject Ciraldo wants to build Bulldogs around

[bulldogsmyte]

I see him as a centre as well. He is wasted on the wing IMO.

He has an usual jagged running style which breaks tackles. He should switch with Avo where Avos pace can be better used on the wing.

 

[CrittaMagic69]

I hate this take in the modern game.

Wingers touch the ball more, and his output can’t be replicated playing as a 3 or 4. His kick returns, or hit ups on 2nd or 3rd off the ruck are where he makes so many metres.

I was on the Kiraz to centre bandwagon until this season however watching him now and it's clear he's perfect on the wing for us. We're also fluid in attack at times so he isn't just stuck out on the wing waiting for the ball all game. The one criticism I have is that he might be taking too many runs lol, a few times last week Jake got on the outside of his man but couldn't linkup with Kiraz because he was behind the play.

I'm biased, I want a combo of Kiraz and Skelton.

Your boy also has a bad habit of taking himself out of play… literally. Bloke loves a sideline

kiraz center and skelton on the wing

kiraz center and skelton on the wing

That's my dream bro and I want to see that ASAP.

It's the knee strapping, he keeps forgetting he can't fully stretch out and consistently burn multiple defenders dw

Skelton is behind Okunbor, Burns and potentially Casey.

He will eat them all!

only way it'll happen is if averillo gets suspended or injured, cant see ciraldo changing the outside backs anytime soon

 

[chemdog]

nah okunbor is gonna be used as a backrower now and Casey is best suited to left edge

 

[Freakzilla]

Why? Former half ball playing for his winger. Whats the issue with that?

For one he is an awful defender.

 

[CrittaMagic69]

Only off the bench. If a winger gets injured then Okunbor will replace them. Casey played right centre last week.

 

[Freakzilla]

Cry more

You're the one who cries when someone speaks the truth about him.

 

[The Dog House]

How do people hate Averillo do much to say he’s not a good centre. I used to think that, but this year you have to admit he’s been really solid, especially for someone who’s unfairly been forced to change positions every 10 games. Only area he lacks statistically is defence, and that can be improved over the season no doubt. He’s a great tackler, just got to improve positioning and that comes with trusting your inside men. He’s been great for us this year so far

fair enough but casey seemed to play well on the left side in first grade last year from memory

 

[CrittaMagic69]

You're not speaking the truth, you're scapegoating. He obviously isn't great defensively and has a lot to work on but if he was actually as bad as you guys think he is then Ciraldo wouldn't even give him a lookin. The real truth is that Ciraldo actually rates him and that's been publicly backed by people like Mason and Adam Driussi in podcasts. Do you seriously think someone like Mason would speak positively about Jake if he was as soft or as defensively weak as so many of you claim? He wouldn't.

You know what Mason would & wouldn't do now do you?

Also I don't care what anyone says, I watch him play & he is the worst defensive centre in the NRL.

I'm 99% sure that the team would be better if Kiraz was at right centre & Averillo/Skelton/Burns was playing right wing.

I don't care what you say either
