You'll see a lot more from Blayke as Nicho gets more confident as a 7 I reckon. Right now it's Nicho-ball - if he's not touching it 3-4 times a set we're deviating off the game plan. The only problem is that Nicho isn't sure where to pop up at times. You see Blayke looking around for him pretty regularlyI appreciate he is still young and in playing in tough position but he needs to bring more to his game , can't just be a facilitator between the forwards and the backs . Doesn't use his kicking game or running game nearly enough , maybe needs some serious competition .
He needs to start looking for himself more and thinking he needs to do something different than just passing .You'll see a lot more from Blayke as Nicho gets more confident as a 7 I reckon.

I agree, but he can't go rogue either. Nicho touches the ball a lot, and that's the plan. It's Blayke's job to give it to him.He needs to start looking for himself more and thinking he needs to do something different than just passing .
Don't want him to go rogue but he needs to kick and run more so we aren't so one dimensional around the ruck , when he does we look so much better .I agree, but he can't go rogue either. Nicho touches the ball a lot, and that's the plan. It's Blayke's job to give it to him.
Nicho getting the hang of his role, some support play and a bit more licence to pick the play and you'll see a lot more from Blayke, I've no doubt
like any hooker needs forwards breaking the line to be effective and we didn’t have that last night,He’s boring - I don’t get him.
What are you in the team for ? How many years do you have to wait before you decide to pull you finger out
The Aaron woods of 9’s
Just saying that it's a conversation moreso to have with Fitz rather than Blayke.Don't want him to go rogue but he needs to kick and run more so we aren't so one dimensional around the ruck , when he does we look so much better .
You don’t win premierships going one out to a prop on the oppositions lineNeed to bring in a specialist coach to work with him next year. I want the telegraphed crash play gone from his playbook by rd 1.
only because there are a **** crop of 9's at the momentBlake was one of the best 9's in the comp this year, just lacks big game experience. He will get better as the year goes on. Go back and actually watch the games.
