Quote: Dean Richmond "Everyone on the right looks more comfortable. Briers , Bridge and King there's a good combination there'"


That play of kicking to the corner for King is a great one should of been used more last season.

Didn't William Webb Ellis pick up the ball and run, someone should really tell Rugby Union. www.squadbuilder.co.uk:1883.jpg



Is this something to do with the way he dresses?

I sincerely hope they don't put King back in the centres because he clearly isn't one.

Agreed.

Playing his best rugby since his move on the wing and beginning to forge a good partnership with Bridge, why break that up?

One reason we score more on the right...Briers.

Play outside Briers you score tries, FACT. Kicks & through the hands.

Play outside the best centre in SL, you score tries, FACT. Keep it up Bridgey.

Now The Wire. [quote="Rogues Gallery":xjc47q2r]Wire - the enigma. They could finish top or eighth, who knows.[/quote:xjc47q2r]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_7749.jpg



He'll have to go if he is not going to play centre. However I suspect he will do with Carney, maybe even Hicks.

Agreed. Its a waste of salary cap having him on the wing next season when we've got Riley, Hicks, Penny and possibly Carney to fill those positions. If he can play centre for Melbourne in the NRL, I don't see why he won't be able to do it in the Super League for Warrington. Grix has done a good job there, but I would give King a run at left centre this season, as soon as we have 2 fit wingers available.

I'd like to see Grix as a Jon Wilkin type player.

At Melbourne Matt King didn`t need to be a creative centre, they had a system where the creative players like Slater,Inglis and Cronk joined the line out wide to create the overlap which would more often than not leave Matt King with a run in or a close range barge over.

He was also used in a similar way to what we are using hm now for which is to get on the end of high kicks which makes sense given his size, NSW and the Australian test team used him in a similar way which is why he only made the wing at test level given his lack of creative centre skils along with his defence which can be a bit ropey at times where he goes charging out of the line.

I agree, its a massive waste of our salary cap to have him stuck out on the wing when we signed him to be the soloution to our left centre problems.

Quote: FireWire "Play outside the best centre in SL, you score tries, FACT. Keep it up Bridgey.'"


I didn`t realise we had signed Matt Gidley.

I put that one out there just for you Rob. I knew, even with your praise of Bridge t'other day you'd pull me.
