Official Cameron McInnes

No, I was talking about the total minutes in the game. I can see how using the word stint would make make you think I meant individual stints rather than total time in service.

All good. So we are both right then. Great result

 

[BurgoShark]

So I mapped Cam's usage in the first 7 games this year versus the last 7 games last year to see how Fitz is using him.

Excluding Round 1 (William HIA) and Round 3 (Hunt sin bin) Fitz has been pretty consistent when using him off the bench. The idea seems to be to bring him on between the 20 and 30 minute mark, and either leave him or give him a very short rest at the back end of the game if there happens to be some spare interchanges.

The questions are whether his better performances were a result of this change, and/or whether the change has been made deliberately by Fitz with McInnes in mind. Both are possible I guess - but it is also possible that Fitz is trying to balance his minutes better in general and McInnes just pulled his finger out and played better.

bench for dale when we are fully fit

 

[stormshark]

The Irishmans not a Prop imho. Leave the Tooth at 13, and start him from Bench, say till Rudolph back, or the tooth falls off again..

I do like the balance of the side with this, but it will never happen.

He looks like a beast at the moment.
Didn’t realise how much size he’d actually put on.

So far I reckon he’s been a bit out of sync tonight.
Sort that out and he’ll kill it for us.

He also has the worst play the ball out of the whole team.

Isn’t the rule that you need to make an attempt to play it with your foot?

I think Fifita has been giving him some one on one coaching in play the balls!

he had a very good game. I’m hoping they keep him at lock and play dale at prop

Makes sense with current form and troops available

Another great game from Psycho.

Gave a very classy interview on channel 9 after the game paying tribute to Greeny as well.

Still wouldn't shock me if Kaufusi and Hunt started.

Good chance they do
Then Dale Williams and Hazelton off the bench in middle

Actually now I write it out maybe I do prefer Dale to start…

Me either. Hunt's returns from kick-off's are incredible and he's always poking through the line.
Kaufusi is the steady player we need up front

Definitely 1 genuine prop short now. Finucane and McInnes are outstanding players who can eat minutes, but they need one more big body who can play 30+.

Could make a case for Colquhoun over Hazelton on the bench next week.

Not a bad start... I didn't remember him being that a big body though? It'd been a while since I've seen him tbf

Sounds like he could help hold Shirvo's package.

Big enough I guess. It'd be good to see him get a run
