Message: [QUOTE="Unbreakable, post: 3675659, member: 8290"] You're welcome to quote me when responding to me. Saying we use him wrong is a complete goal post shift from saying he doesn't run hard or offload, not sure why you felt the need to say that when it's objectively false in almost every metric available. As I said in my last post, we simply don't have the roster to use him differently at this time. If we did happen to randomly acquire 3 outside backs capable of running for 200m over the off-season, and an 80 minute hooker who's ultra reliable, and bench forwards who come on and make a huge impact in attack and defense every game, then absolutely I'd be on board with you, we should be changing the way he plays. Instead of playing him 65 minutes, we could be playing him 45 minutes. Instead of having him focus all of his energy on getting us out of our own end, we could have him focus all of his energy on line speed, aggression in contact, winning the ruck defensively. This is obviously just not going to happen, at least not in the near future, so we should probably just keep him in the exact same role he's in and try and surround him with the correct pieces to win a comp. For example, two hard nosed defenders starting in the middle with him and Carrigan - no offense to Walters & Jensen, but it ain't them. [/QUOTE]
