Those positions are basically on ballers and I have seen nothing of him to sugget he would be anywhere near good enough below his knees to play in those positions.3rd generation saint wrote:He will be a good ruckman Plugger 66, but he is still underdeveloped and would be pushed around too easily.
Mcevoy is a couple years ahead of him and he still get's pushed around by the bigger ruckman in the comp eg Jolly.
Get him on a wing or flank where he can use his speed and height without having to use to much of his bulk.
Will help build stamina and endurance for a future run in the ruck.
He would be a very diificult match up, anyone who can match his height wouldn't have his speed and anyone with the speed to match couldn't match his height.
Steven, Miles ,Stanley,A.Smith & Geary. Ross, it is time

Not the guy for that position. But we DO have to think differently.plugger66 wrote:3rd generation saint wrote:He will be a good ruckman Plugger 66, but he is still underdeveloped and would be pushed around too easily.

There's not a great deal of changes to be made when you look how the Pies have emerged from successive Prelim beltings It's definitely that bottom much talked about bottom six and a more attacking stlye that needs the work
Keep the faith
We will come again with Tommy Walsh, Luke Miles , Rhys Stanley
Jack Steven , Smith, Armo and Simpkin
McQualter replaced by Walsh
Dawson or Blake replaced by Raph Clarke
Ray replaced by Miles
I think Dempster might prove to be better than we all think.
I suspect Geary and Armitage are exactly like the players we're trying to replace
Peake replaced by Steven
Eddy replaced by A Smith
Mac replaced by Gardiner
Schneider replaced by Stanley
Gordon Fode couldda been Plugga
