Totally agree with that. I am not blaming Smith for our issues however I think there is a coaching issue that is not helping him maximise his undoubted potential. It looks to me that a some point somebody has told hime to concentrate on his overall workrare and he has bulked up to support this. I just think he would benefit from dropping a few pounds and being more mobile and getting out of the middle channels from time to time. Look at the way Bateman influenced the game vs Leeds popping up in different areas. Its up to others to step up defensively in the tackling stats and the carries down the middle. I still would have him in my 17 every week.

Agree with this. He might impress numbers wise but needs to be more dominant. Wrestling on the ground with players who've found their fronts isn't the way to go and isn't the best way to use a player with some semblance of creativity. Cos let's face it, we're not over endowed with those.

Interesting that Donaldson isn't in the squad. That's two weeks in row he won't have made the 17. The club have mentioned Dywer is approaching a milestone, sorry but sentiment shouldn't come into it. He should be dropped with Johnson coming in. I would also move Sutty to the bench and give Broadbent a shot in the centre.

Re: RD 4 | Wakefield Trinity (A) : Tue Mar 01, 2022 2:05 pm  

Would have Broadbent at fullback personally. Sutty is no world beater, but he actually made a couple of breaks last week, so doesn't make sense to leave him on the bench for me.

I think they like Dwyer for the energy he brings, particularity in defense, but his passing last week was atrocious and not the standard of a pro rugby player in any position let alone hooker.

Walker as he needs game time
Fusitua
Newman
Broadbent but it will be Sutcliffe
Handley if fit or Tindall
Sezer
Austin
Oledzki
Leeming
Prior
Gannon
Martin
Smith

Johnson but it will be Dwyer
Tetavano
Thompson
O`Connor

Id be tempted to go with Fusitu'a at full back, if only to see him ball in hand with some space to run. Slot Broadbent onto the wing.

I think Agar will stick with Walker who he himself says he needs to get up to speed with the game.

Give him time, he'll come around to my way of thinking eventually

By then mate Myler will be ready to step in.
