Swap Atkinson early for Sloan… if you want X factor

I think everyone would be wanting Kennedy back pretty quick. I’m not his biggest fan but I think his security under the high ball is a bit under appreciated, he’s very safe.

But I do agree with the sentiment that we need an upgrade there which I think the club also sees it hence they’ve been giving him all these short term extensions, but unfortunately it hasn’t been that easy

Yeah I’m probably being devil’s advocate with Sloan. Though this was the match report today, he was on the wing:

NSWRL

The Dragons struggled to find their rhythm in the red zone, but a moment of brilliance from Tyrell Sloan turned the tide. Spotting a gap, Sloan sliced through the defence and sprinted 80 metres to score, Jonah Glover adding the extras to level at 6-6.

Tyrell Sloan played a pivotal role, scoring two tries and providing a spark in attack throughout the match.

The titans have 4 fullbacks on their books. Swap Uele for one of them.

They've found a way to fit the 3 good ones in the spine at this stage. Knowing full well Kini and Campbell won't be getting moved on, I don't know if we want the others?

Atko to Fullback if Will goes down, should be able to defend well, get more involved in attack, get some good metres with kick returns and can be an extra kicker, including goal kicking. Get him running in the middle with support also, roaming everywhere

Do they put Atko back to NSW Cup for a few weeks to polish up on his fullback skills?

Should be ready to go

I'd still keep him as 18th man for us tbh.

Dykes/Puru/Pollard would be a good development spine for us.

Not sure where Dykes is at though are we?

Shinaz said ‘training to get better’ which c out kid he interpreted multiple ways but perhaps is just rehab

If he’s no good we need to lock someone into FB until he’s back, maybe Hiroti as Atko is halves cover.

I'm just going off his interview with the et stand where he said rd 2/3 return.

 

[Sevshark]

Round 3 return was the last I'd heard about Dykes

Thanks hadn’t seen that one
A promising timeline

Just goes to show that the Newtown partnership is a waste of time. This would never have happened on the hallowed turf of Shark Park.

 

[Tiger Shark]

Poor kid, didn't play trials and only got 10 or so minutes of footy in the whole year. Can be a cruel sport sometimes.

Hopefully no complications and he's good to go next year Rd 1.

Only 20, so plenty of time to come back strong!

Yep, many have before
If anything Dykes having a complication is the outlier

 

[The Punisher]

Guess I'll be seeing him tomorrow then
