I'd be disappointed if we use 3 quota spots on wingers.

You've got a thing about using quota places for wingers Dave :D

This time last year Sneyd was a waste of money in some people's eye's
Houghton wouldn't get a top 4 team etc

Give carlos the means he'd be fine imo
2nd season is usually when most overseas come good
Plus young and his 1st grade experience is prob on a par with abdull despite being a couple of years older
He was the best half on field v wigan other week. Couldn't of looked more of a 6
Also check the video of him on yt . In that few mins it shows all you'd want in a 6. Or even a 1. I'd be fine with him
Only thing is tho I really liked the look of him at centre early in the year

Certainly. Washbrook a waste of time, Michaels not big enough, Bowden/Green not up to it, blah, blah, blah. Radford and Tony certainly have recruitment runs on the board. Some movement to come I reckon; we can't have world beaters in every position but the squad overall has looked good this year, no reason to think we're downgrading IMO.

Great post.
Carlos will only get better I believe. Some overseas players can take a while to settle in. Pat Richards and Gelling are two that come to mind.
Carlos has good skills and is strong in the tackle.
As you point out,players like Danny H and Sneyd have been written off by some in the recent past and look how that turned out.

Theres been lots of games this season where CT has been invisible and weve effectively played most of the season with just one half

What does that mean? I honestly have no idea how you give a player "the means"? Can you quantify for me please?

I like Tuimavave but as a centre not 6.
If the club are actively looking now at or for a half back which is what Adam Pearson has said then i guess they dont think Carlos is what we need at 6.

Re: Breaking News... : Tue Oct 18, 2016 2:49 pm  
As much as I like CT as a player he is not a specialist 6 and would in all honesty be a make do. I am not convinced CT at 6 is what we need and don't think a full pre season will make that much difference. Yes he is a good player but just not sure he is the right answer at 6 and would we just be playing him there to get him the 17?

Thought he looked to have all the makings of a very dangerous centre but we seem to be loaded there unless Fonua is moved back to the wing but with Talanoa & Michaels we have 2 wingers taking quota spots??
