Whoever thought picking walker at 5/8 was a good idea should be forced to watch re-runs of the games he was in that position, on a loop, until they fully understand walker is no 5/8. I am in despair

 

[The mule]

Suli isn't fit enough for first grade and Walker cannot play 5/8 Rewind back to 2016 Barrett

Had enough of this ****

Mickey mouse coaching

 

[StuBoot]

Suli in the centres, walker # 6, Lane 12
Jacko not in the 17

 

[pt73]

I just don't believe what I've read, Dylan hasn't been setting the world on fire.

 

[Wombat64]

Oh FFS! Walker back at 5/8.

I don't get your pissing monkey avatar? Is it homage to bubbler boy?

 

[TimmyQ]

Well that'll do me.... I give up. What a farce.

 

[Turbo4Life]

2016 all over again

 

[Holmsey]

Seasons over, and any seasons to come as long as Barrett is coaching.

2016 version of Dylan walker had much better footwork and wasn't returning from serious injury and was defensively better, I expect 2018 5/8 Dylan walker to be worse at 5/8 than in 2016.

Disagree.
Actually I always disagree with you, on principle!

 

[Woodsie]

HEY Mr Gorman ...... the world's ending again ..... this time all because Walker is playing 5/8 instead of the peoples favourite Hastings ....

 

[God]

Thats nice, you must enjoy being wrong.

 

[bob dylan]

Question: What do you do when you only have one decent centre in the club?

(Obvious) Answer: Play him at 5/8th.

 

[bringbackbeaver]

Surely this is a deception tactic from Trent... Surely he's not considering Walker at 6... Surely..

I wish Mickey mouse was coaching, even he would know to leave walker at right centre and put jacko to 5/8. The walt disney rodent would do a better job a coaching than our current coach

HEY Mr Gorman ...... the world's ending again ..... this time all because Walker is playing 5/8 instead of the peoples favourite Hastings ....

Would think even Tom Wright would of been a better choice, along with Luscik or even playing Api out of position. No issue with Dylan walker but he's not a 5/8 that's been tried and failed already.

 

[Holmsey]

HEY Mr Gorman ...... the world's ending again ..... this time all because Walker is playing 5/8 instead of the peoples favourite Hastings ....

Its not the fact that we all love Hastings, what we love is five-eights and Walker is not one, he is a centre, one of the best. I dont see any logic in this other than Barrett wanting to stay on his high horse and not pick our only 6 left in the squad. The world is ending for the club at the moment.

 

[Rodo]

Zero chance Manly can win this weekend with Walker at 5/8.

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

Thats nice, you must enjoy being wrong.

Often wrong, but at least I exist.

Walker at 5/8 I agree looks a little desperate, but desperate times call for desperate measures.
