At this point in time it seems that the benefits of clubbs size are outweighed by unfamiliarity with the system and a general ineffectiveness, leading me to prefer a starting second row of hughes and farrell with bateman on the bench too.

Even for this board this topic is comical. I'm not saying he will turn out to be success, but writing him off after a few games is pathetic. Apart from Eric Wane hasn't got many wrong.

Are people writing him off or saying that on showing so far he shouldnt play in the biggest match of the next 6 months?

Quote: WARRIORCRAIG "I agree with this, though I can't see him displacing any of the 5 main props. He seems fine being used simply as a battering ram and defending in the middle, but we need more clever dummy running in from our SRs for our attacking structures to be effective. He doesn't seem mobile enough to play as a wide running SR, which seems strange considering he's got international caps playing centre.'"


When playing centre his mobility in defence was his biggest issues from what I saw. The best games I've seen Clubb play were at prop and he's rarely started at second row in the last few years. It might be that he will just need some time to adjust, although going off his previous performances and his body shape I'd be uncertain about his mobility when defended and his ability to fulfil a role that best suits the most athletic, all rounders within a team (just look at the likes of Farrell, Hansen, Hock, Joel Tomkins, Hoffman etc - tall, strong, quick, aggressive and very mobile).

Lauaki himself was fine when he played.

Clubb needs time to settle before any judgements on him can really be formed.
