Lee Kershaw is a winger and in the first team squad. If things became stretched surely we would utilise him? Isn't that why he's in the squad ?

Re: Krisnan Inu : Mon Mar 18, 2019 8:00 am  

He is, and has to be given a chance at some point.

The worry is, he could be very raw, and huge boots to fill, for about three quarters of the season, and with Bill missing on that side too, and straight relegation, for me a huge gamble.

A couple of games yes, rest of 2019 season not sure

Yeah, I certainly don't picture him as a straight slot in for Tom, more for the odd game here and there to bring him on and help us out.

Not sure why this guy had become unblocked but I can see why I had blocked him/her. More irritating than the cowbell kid.

Jowitt to fullback, and Rocky to Wing?????

Just clarify he is not the Chairman now.

Can see this happening. Needs must in the short term but is that the best use of Rocky's skill set for anything more than a few games?

Someone said this to me at work, I don't see why Chester would disrupt Rocky.

I don't know if anyone caught the Canberra game on Sunday but a reporter asked why they hadn't given the fullback spot to Nick Cotric , Ricky Stuart replied with
"why would I move him when he's playing so damn well?"

That's the way I look at Rocky, he's playing so well at the moment. Especially going forward!

If we don't have the funds to bring in a winger then we look to our academy for a winger i.e. Lee Kershaw

Re: Krisnan Inu : Mon Mar 18, 2019 1:41 pm  

Inu is good for about 10 minutes per game, if he decides to join in - certainly not the answer to this problem.

I really hope we don't make wholesale changes - it would be good to see a young lad given a shot, and we adjust our attacking play to allow for the fact that our lethal left edge has been blunted.
