Yes. Last played there in 2004 apparently.

Quote: Dave Lister "He can play both. Whats your point?
He can now. Never was a hooker. Never played hooker til he was forced to. Not a "natural" hooker.

Former London Bronco Jason Hetherington. Very average 5/8th with Gilly at the Gold Coast, goes to the bulldogs. Gets told to learn how to play hooker. Watches video after video of Steve Walters. Goes on to represent both Queensland and Australia at hooker.

Point is, people can move positions, people can adapt and in the case of the Quins player give em a chance whoever said he wasn't a natural hooker.

I don't dispute this. Some people can't though. You can't force people to be good in a certain position. In some cases is painfully obvious they won't be good in a certain position.

Quote: Dave Lister "As someone else has posted, letting Skee start at SO would have been a major confidence boost. Comparing it to throwing him in when the team were clearly going to lose the match is completely different and pointless. I'd rather have him there than Matt "Turnstyle" Gafa who is one of our worst players now.'"


The reason the half time score was so reasonable was because we made very few mistakes and gave away very few penalties.
If Skee had started (and played for 60 minutes instead of 20), the number of knock on's, errors and interference at play the ball he would have committed would have been huge. This would have resulted in a cricket score against us.
Im not sure that any player would get any confidence from that at all!

And you base that on what? icon_lol.gif

Fantastic. I'd we'd have started Joe Mbu we would have won by 20 points. Because I said so and I know what would have happened in hypothetical situations.

Fair call.

Has this geezer only played part of a game once there though. If so, ain't it a bit harsh to write someone off so soon?

What if he was one of a few (from people's comments on here) who simply had a bad day at the office.

I agree, I don't think anyone knows enough about Skee at all to pass judgement tbh.

Exactly...

I know if I was playing and the coach picked me to start i'd be able to take a proper grip on the game and play with confidence. I wouldn't be too impressed that a centre/winger who hasn't played in my position since 2004 was starting in front of me.

Eh?? So, as a player who has never started a professional game, you wouldn't be too impressed that a seasoned professional and someone who has played a whole season at SO was picked ahead of you?? icon_rolleyes.gif

Skee knocked on and gave away a penalty in the time he was on the pitch. This isn't disputable. Are you suggesting that if he had started, he would have played better?
I dont want people to think I am having a go at Skee at all, because i'm not. But the fact is, the team would have made more mistakes with him starting and having more game time. This would have resulted in more try's against, which would have dented his confidence.

Thought will had a decent game
worked hard in defence and carried the ball a hell of a lot!!!!!

still think possibly Melling better in the FB position tho and will back out on the fringes

Have to say the T Bosc kick over pick up and second kick over pure magic!!!!!!

Good to see your total lack of debating skills are lost on this thread as well as every other one.

Why do you continue to post on here? If someone disagrees with your point of view then they are in the wrong according to you.
You make sarcastic replies and offer nothing to back up what you've written.

I really do wonder what you get out of posting on here.

Quote: Dave Lister "He did indeed carry the ball very well and looked reasonably assured at FB. Bit greedy at times though.'"


which seems like a sensible strategy for him to employ until someone has helped him per your first post icon_wink.gif
