what do you do with him? He's a fullback or nothing. ****ing small one at that for origin.Papenhauzen in - S Crichton out (he was just a flat-out bad pick on the bench)
We wereWasn't NSW ahead by 4?
Keep him on the excercise bike wearing lycra in front of a strong fan with The Datsuns blasting through the stadium speakerswhat do you do with him? He's a fullback or nothing. ****ing small one at that for origin.

Put him on at 13 in last 15 minutes and watch him score the try Yeo couldn’twhat do you do with him? He's a fullback or nothing. ****ing small one at that for origin.

Slightly taller (probably the hair do) but Slater listed as 9kg heavier.Same size as Slater
Chrichton one - penalty sufficient imo, but who knows in a random week of NRL.Probably most of the time in NRL yeah
Whoever was in the bunker just could not bring themselves to say there was "just a touch which constitutes a high tackle".
And quite a few people reckon the Crichton tackle was a sin bin... not even in NRL should that be a sin bin, barely went past horizontal (enough for penalty yes) and nowhere near landing on his head.

I assume we're talking about Pap here? If so, I agree with Cap, he's not a bench player at SOO level.Hey Cap ,
As someone said , perhaps last 15 minutes impact .
If a winger got injured , he might be able to do the job and go hunting for opportunities too ( Turbo like ).
If a Centre went down , perhaps shift him to fullback and let Teddy play centre .
Who knows , maybe even handle 5/8 in an emergency ( Fitler below )
Fittler highlighted the great success Melbourne had had in transforming fullbacks into top-line players.
"If you look at all the good players down at Melbourne - they all come through at fullback: Jahrome Hughes, Cameron Munster," Fittler said on Wide World of Sports' Freddy and The Eighth.
"They know how to train a fullback up, and they've got Billy Slater down there (as a consultant)."
So is Ponga, and wasn't he thrown in middle a few years back with some success?what do you do with him? He's a fullback or nothing. ****ing small one at that for origin.
I reckon Ponga is a bit bigger than Paps and can cover a few more positions.So is Ponga, and wasn't he thrown in middle a few years back with some success?
NSW over the last few years have succeeded through speed around the ruck with Teddy and Turbo backing up through the middle. I know he's smaller, but I don't see any reason why Paps can't do the same. Esspecially given we needed some x factor desperately. Can't think of anyone else who could have played that role as well as he could.
Maybe slightly, but with Wighton in the side do we need to cover that many extra positions. Pap could play wing and push a winger in, or a second rower could cover centre.I reckon Ponga is a bit bigger than Paps and can cover a few more positions.
We do need some x factor though.
I reckon Paps on a wing marking Coates /Cobbo would be an absolute bloodbath.Maybe slightly, but with Wighton in the side do we need to cover that many extra positions. Pap could play wing and push a winger in, or a second rower could cover centre.
Both Teddy and Wighton made linebreaks in that last 10 minutes. If Paps was on, with his support play and speed I think we convert at least one if not both of them.
Sure, it's not ideal, you could also move a 2nd rower out like I said.I reckon Paps on a wing marking Coates /Cobbo would be an absolute bloodbath.
If Jayden Campbell stays injury free for a few seasons I could see him end up playing a role like thisSure, it's not ideal, you could also move a 2nd rower out like I said.
I don't think you pick a utility to cover injury though. You pick one to turn a game and if they cover injuries that's a bonus.
I'd reckon Paps taking hit ups out of his own end would be the bigger problem.I reckon Paps on a wing marking Coates /Cobbo would be an absolute bloodbath.
