Refusing to run the ball back with any heart or aggression every single game is not being picky.

we lose massive metres every game as he waits for his wingers to come for the pass or if there's nobody he runs sideways looking for the soft tackle.

Cannot disagree, but he is here for the next 2 years so more of the same I guess. Robinson is another who is a big disappointment, best days gone???

think this goes back to nathan brown days , brett hodgson did the same but boy could be setup tries.

personally i like to see the hard running full backs like hardaker and reilly.

grix is too small and sometimes can lose the ball on contact or gets dragged backwards

Are we paying the price of having a 'leadership group'?

Brett Hodgson is smaller than Scott Grix.

Don't you know that size doesn't matter?

I think it's very easy, due to the fact he was such a fantastic player, to forget the mistakes that Brett made - especially under the high ball and I remember plenty of times he was dragged backwards.

If we can find a better full back (as with any position) than Grix then I would fully agree with replacing him but I remain to be convinced that we have anyone in the squad who is better than him as a full back. For me, neither Murphy or Connor have taken their opportunities when Gix has been out.

This is called 'team tactics' not a lack of heart or aggression.

Hodgson was 3rd in try assists for our team 2009/2010 seasons.

2011/2012 grix was 3rd/2nd in the list those seasons

but 2013/2014 seasons he has not been anywhere near the top for try assists? have we changed tactics since then or has grix gone backwards in this area

I for one would welcome a contract extension for Anderson.

Calling Grix's gigantic fear of ever being tackled 'team tactics' is a joke to be honest! I don't care what you think of Grix but what he does when he catches the ball never benefits us, apart from against a dire Wakey side.

So you seriously think Anderson selects a full back whose scared on tackling? You honestly think that Anderson watches how Grix catches the ball and waits for his wingers and thinks that's not what I asked him to do and then still selects him as first choice full back? There's only one joke on this thread...

Never suggested Anderson doesn't tell him to do, I just provided a reason as to why he might?
