Recruitment and retention

[257Matt]

Can't agree with that. Kurt is a much better No.9 than Plath.

I rather him at 13 or even 6 and Max Plath has done well at 9.

Jordan Plath is a really good no.9 as is John Fineanganofo. Johnny can also play 6 and 13 got a lot of Isaac Luke about him.

 

[mr_c]

Not even close

thats why i listen to better judges than you

I'd rather him at 13 as well but at this point, we have nothing but depth for 13 but little depth for 9.

especailly senior players that are full time hookers

. Plath didn’t work at 9 his distribution was slow the forwards struggled to time their runs.

Agreed. 13 for mine along with Kurt.

Kurt is better at 13 but can also fill in reasonably well at 9. Plath not so much.

Fair, just my opinion, I think Kurt's service out of 9 is not the best. I don't like him at 9.

It's not his best position by a long way but he's a way better 9 than Plath.

Plath it seems is a lock. A very good lock but not much good in other positions.

I've got a bit of a weird opinion that the junkyard dog is an exceptional wet weather hooker.

Thats not weird. Being closer to the tough stuff, in games where the ball doesnt get much air suits the scrapper.

So where does Morgan Knowles fit in?

 

[Gary]

So where does Morgan Knowles fit in?

Lock

 

[mr_c]

So where does Morgan Knowles fit in?

with no plath there and tom g back it be 2nd row i pretty sure

 

[Liverbird with Phins up]

So where does Morgan Knowles fit in?

I always found his recruitment a bit puzzling. Thought he could play middle. Hoping he can.

But with our depth at Lock/backrow. He seems one of many

 

[Liverbird with Phins up]

Hope he kills it. And the Depth is awesome considering our injury history

 

[yonathonjoung]

So where does Morgan Knowles fit in?

I really am hoping middle.

 

[257Matt]

I really am hoping middle.

If Knowles is a success in the NRL he'll be the oldest first time NRL player to achieve it. The successful players previously the Burgess brothers all in their very early 20's, Morley 23, Whitehead 25, Graham 26 & the oldest to be successful was Ellis at 27. Knowles will be 29 when Round 1 kicks off it's a huge task when all the others came early in their careers or just as their peaks were coming. The two most successful backs being Herbie & Widdop came across at very young ages.

Plath and Donoghoe since taking on the lock roles have won major club awards and last year Donoghoe at lock really unlocked Katoa.

Both Averillo and Donoghoe would be better no.6 options than the player they've signed for next year.
