What's happened to Brenton Payne?Jacks Back wrote:This, unfortunately, is a great opportunity to see what the side could be like when the more experienced players are no longer there.
With both Fisher and Dempster out of the back line it brings opportunity to see what a future backline would look like without those two (albeit also without Goddard). The only talls we have at Sandy are Lee, Delaney and the rookie Coughlan. Delaney is a bit slow and probably could only play on the gorillas like Close or maybe Hawkins. Robertson might be tall but he plays small. I reckon we need to have a good look at Lee and also promote Coughlan to see how far away (or close) he is. If we upgrade Coughlan we still have a midway upgrade option as well.

Delaney is basically the polar opposite. Good defenseively, but witha poor offensive game.
With Fisher, Dempster and Goddard all injured there would even bea case to say play Delaney at FB and Lee at CHB. If I had to go for one it would be Lee.
While this week they will not play a giant forward line, it is not tiny either:
Everitt: 194
Walker: 190
Casboult: 199
Cripps who will push forward is 193
Gilbert 194 and Robbo 194 do not play key defender games despite their height. Gilbert who started the year well has also been quite poor the last 4 weeks and in this period he has played asa defender in the main.
Coughlan at 195 could be a smokie to be promoted. He is however at present lightly built. So you would expect him to be more of a flanker than key defender in the seniors at present.

Tommy Lee is Tetley to the players!
Old enough to repaint, but young enough to sell

Re: Dempster, Paddy to miss. Roo 50/50
It's official. No Roo.
But for some reason Rupert isn't an out yet. Surely he has to be dropped even though there are 4 out injured?
