Re: POLL: Strongest 2024 line up: Lock

Puru got an opportunity last year , if he isn't in Stickys plans then he wouldn't have got a shot last season.
I dont see his size as an issue, if he has the strength, technique, skill and heart then he will be fine

Re: POLL: Strongest 2024 line up: Lock

Horse needs to go into the prop rotation. He will kill it in that role.

As for 13 , would love to see Puru develop into our lock but I think Smithies will be chosen there . Looking forward to what he can offer.

Looks like I got it wrong.
Just read it will be 10m from where the kick was taken. Therefore 10m out regardless where it goes out with a set of 6.

Re: Rugby League 2024

If a team does a line drop 50m down the middle of the field , the fullback/winger runs it back 20 to 30m . If a team takes a line drop puts it out on the full around the 40m/50m mark It's a play the ball against a set defence . If you have a good kicker this would be my tactic . If I have understood...
