Round 15 v Sharks

[GCRV]

We have Klemmer and had Mcguire plus Sims both of them I suppose, but you cant have past it Alpha's being our enforcer, and I dont know if LPT will develop into one either, once things started to go haywire the other night he seemed very lost. Not blaming him though he had no leadership from anyone.

He's more of a super talent IMO. Enforcers aren't usually as talented as the best forwards. They compliment the best forwards.

Yeah I think with his size it will be in the NAS style, whatever it is I hope its for a long time with the Dragons.

 

[redv13]

I'd go the opposite, Nick is the enforcer for me.
Jett is one of the quietest kids you'll meet. Also very religious and polite, just can't see him being a hard arse.

I know it won’t happen but Flanno has to bite the bullet and play Nick T at 17. Even if it’s only a 15-20 min job, time to give him a crack. No use playing the same guys that sadly aren’t up to it anymore. Same with Halangahu later in the season. Might just unearth a beauty looking towards 2026

We better look after these young guys mate, with a new team coming in very soon they will obviously have their eye on a lot of juniors around the place.

100%. Say if Flanno drops Lawrie this week and replaces him with BMM, the young blokes on the edge will surely question their future at the club.

My heart says Flanno wont do that but my head says he will.You have Guler and Sele as well.

 

[Mug Fan]

BMM is not going to be picked in FG

 

[Dragon David]

Good idea if not for the cap. Bulldogs are going to be in trouble in about a year.

I hope so Chris.

Sele deserves a chance, doesn't he? I'd drop Lawrie for Sele and RFM for Nick T.

 

[redv13]

Sele is next up no doubt and I have no issue with that. He deserves some good luck moving forward, happy to see him back in 1st grade. Next question is does Guler come back in or a young pup get some experience??

Exactly

 

[Justadragon]

Yep Sele deserves another chance, but if he gets injured again which I hope not, I would call it a day on him, start blooding more juniors.

 

[Red T]

Will Flanno ever sack Kyle ?

A rhetorical question ?

 

[Mailroomsgi]

He’ll get sacked himself if he keeps him in the starting side next year

 

[Dragons Chris]

One thing for certain, having him in the 17 isn't doing either of them any good. Kyle is young enough and still has 2 years on his contract. He might be able to turn himself into a decent hooker/utility in reserve grade and then get recalled to first grade in that position this year if there is an injury or next year.

So back to what Dad said he was originally signed for, a utility player off the bench.

Exactly. People forget about that.

Not me

Joey called out our halves for playing too sideways. Pretty much Kyle because I thought lkt has been playing pretty straight.

Last week LKT was running sideways, he played a bit straighter against the phins, as for Kyle he was basically sideways. Neither play straight im afraid
