I assume that means we are keeping LOB?
Wouldn't be surprised if we kept LOB.
Every team I muck around with shows we need a bonafide wingmen to rely on week in week out.
Sure flexibility is good to see from coach and player, but a settled team is gold imo.
LOB's running capacity and ability to hit long targets when NOT under pressure are valuable tools.
Who else for the wings other than Walsh (I want in the middle) and Ed (who turns 33 next year)?
I dream that Philp, Cuningham could have the engines to play the role, other than that I dream it may be Carrol but he seems more like an inside outside mid.
Cerra? Where does he play if Walsh Cripps is teaming up with Hewett, (a fit and determined) Williams? Wing-midfield mixing it with the running machine Walsh?
We are desperate for a wingman, but come on, we know it’s not going to be O’Brien, just as it’s not going to be Cottrell. They’re both too slow between the ears.
It won’t be Cuningham either. He’s physically capable (when fit) of running the other way, but that’s just not his game. He gets a bit lost trying to pick up the danger… plus, it’s pretty hard to overlook that fitness caveat. He’s a guy that has had hamstring problems in the past & is now using a piece of those same hamstrings to hold his knee together.
It could be Philp, that’s certainly what his draft profile suggests…. IF the #bestinthebusiness works a miracle on his groins.
It could be Carroll, but I don’t think anyone truly knows what the young fella has to offer. He certainly looks like a footballer though. If he turns up to preseason closer to 85kg than 75kg, he’d have to be in the mix.
