Message: [QUOTE="Fitzy, post: 3587888, member: 9881"] Nonsense, if he isn’t going to bring a playmaking style into his game then there is no point having lethal options on his edge. You can’t expect a 6 to score 18 tries a season, it’s just not a realistic target year in year out. He is reigning 5/8th of the year, on a large contract and put one of the best grand final performances of all time together. He needs playmaking ability full stop. Playmaking isn’t just shouting at players, it’s a passing game, it’s putting your hard line running second rower through a gap, it’s a short grubber for a goal line drop out. How can we possibly continue to give a crucial member a free pass from learning his job. Reyno is here to make sure when he ***** it up he gets it right the next time, why would you waste a whole year (or more) of his development alongside Reyno not growing that facet of his game. If he isn’t good enough to make the right decision whether to run, pass, kick or let someone else come in and make a play (e.g. Walsh, Billy, Selwyn, Reyno) on 800k a year than he simply does not fucken deserve the hype. It’s his job and he has to start figuring it out. If he doesn’t figure it out in the next 2 years he will shit the bed just as badly as Milf did without a top line halfback. I agree with the notion the preference is to be a 5/8 that’s my preference as well, but a 5/8 still has to be able to decide, make and control plays to a high standard to win comps. Not expecting improvement and development of players in areas of there game is how you end up falling back down the pack. He has so much and I mean SO MUCH more to improve on and he is already one of the best players in the game. You don’t waste time developing a player like him when you have Reyno alongside him. There is a very big difference between being a lead playmaker and having a high level playmaking ability, Milford was the former that was his downfall. Can’t keep making fundamental errors in our operations based off issues of the past, these players are not them. EZRA MUST CONTINUE TO GROW HIS SKILLSET REGARDLESS OF WHAT HIS FUTURE POSITION ENTAILS. [/QUOTE]
