Quote: Bullseye "On Addy do we think he’ll be a regular starter? Or more of a bench player?

I’m sure he has gone on record saying he’d like to concentrate on playing as a loose forward. Would he get into the side consistently? I’m not so sure. When you consider Walker as captain is likely to be a regular that leaves two other backrow spots.

I think we need some size in the backrow, preferably with some pace too. I’d prefer to see Ferguson and Walshaw there with Pitts as backup. I’m also hopeful Mellor will come through this year as he has a lot of potential. I’m not sure where Addy fits in since when we had a lightweight backrow we offer less in attack and get pushed around in defence.'"


The same noises are made every year about how he wants to play in the back row. Then he inevitably ends up being a utility player moved all over the place to cover various positions.

I don't expect that to change to be honest. Addy is always going to be a great squad player without being a great player in any particular position.

Quote: Bullseye "Unless Petersen puts some beef on I can’t see him figuring as much as Addy in the pack. According to the stats Petersen is at 89kgs the lightest of the backrowers by some way. Addy is 9kgs heavier.'"

It's his first full-time season so I expect it takes a bit of time to gain that amount bulk - if indeed he is going to.

Quote: Nothus "Personally I'm not looking for a bulky loose forward. I know some teams use them as an extra prop to make drives etc but I would rather have somebody more elusive in attack, almost acting like a third pivot, and then just a decent tackling machine with plenty of stamina when it comes to the defensive side of things.'"

I'm with you on this one. I thought Peterson had decent pace and went back the utube vid to check. What is noticeable is the increase in pace between the early SL clips and the Aussie clips, his speed out of the line to flatten kickers and to make tackles is impressive. Its easy to see how he got a second year with the Cutters. and the vid probably has more clips of him tackling than attacking. He weighs 5 kg more than AOB who did 722 tackles last season, more than Sidlow, with a missed tackle ratio of 6%.

Agree with this. We've had years of a loose forward acting as 3rd prop in Langley. Much rather we went with a ball handling style of loose to give us more attacking options. Expect walker to start season there but then one of Peterson or Addy to displace him as season progresses.

One for the ladies on here, been re-tweeted by a bunch of the players throughout today. Walshaw is a big bloke, he towers over Sidlow and Davies here!
