Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 2767808, member: 1899"] Ha, don't get me wrong, I wasn't trying to big note myself. Was just trying my best to represent what a few were probably thinking. I found Wayne's comments interesting. When he was quizzed on Pearson, he admitted that they had long term plans for him but he didn't expect him to be in this role until next season. Circumstances changed and fair credit to the guy, he took it with both hands. I agree with the general consensus. Timing is everything, and Wayne got it right with Pearson. Coming off a strong performance for the Dolphins, Round 23 was the time for him and it seemed like Wayne was very delicate with him. He didn't inform him until last minute and listening to Thaiday on the Nova website, it seemed like they tried their best to keep his job simple. Basically 'you're a winger, just go out there and put the ball over the line' was the tongue in cheek line from Sam. Obviously there's more to a wingers job these days, I think they've surpassed centres in the modern game but for a young guy that's the way it ought to be. I'd imagine Kahu will come back into the side next week, fingers crossed he makes it through the rest of the season unscathed but as it stands it was nice to get a glimpse at some of the depth coming through. It's certainly better news than poor ol' Carlin getting his jaw broken once again. [/QUOTE]
