How will Polak fit into our structure?

[mightytiges]

Plough wants him to hold up CHB. So what will our spine look like?

B. Gas, Thursfield
HB. Polak, Hall
Foll. Simmonds, Patto, Knobel
HF: Richo, Hughes
F: Schulz, Limbach

polak wil be the next leppitsh
play back, but will go fwd when needed

i bet ray hall will finally be released from defense
i see terry using ray hall as a running tall wingman, burton type role, we all know he can run, he has a good long kick when he dosnt panic and he can kick a long goal and take a good grab
im not a big fan of razor as a defender, but if he is let loose on a wing, he would be hard to be matched up on and i see him as  our big improver next yr, he will snag a few from outside 50 on the run next yr
gas wll play fb 4 sure, getting polak keeps jay up fwd, and if needed he and polak can swap
picking up just this one player will make our team much more versitile
he have not had a really good chb since jim jess, this is the spot we needed to fill to make the 8 next yr, and now im confident we will

What about the Bowden Bros?

joel will play hbf and paddy will either play back or fwd depending on who we are playing and what terry has in mind, u never know tery at times may have ray hall on one wwing and paddy on another, tall running wingmen are also hard to match up on

I'd reckon you're right X with Joel off a HBF in his usual "sweeper/quarterback" role without now needing to worry about a big key forward and Paddy on a wing pushing up and down the ground. Razor's body type would be hard to match up against on a wing and I remember that long running goal in the 2001 SF which even confused the commentators who thought it was Joel at first. I just wonder if he has the footy smarts both offensively and especially defensively to consistently play on a wing and exploit his height and running ability.

i think razor will work real hard at this this summer, tery has stated many times that he has not been able to play ray hall where he wants him to play and i bet thats a wing! razor can exploit most teams with his run and height on a wing and i expect hime to band a few long goals next yr. i see terry giving razor a role similar to burton at the crows.  i also have a sneak feeling joel will rebound and follow up his work more next yr and kick a few goals himself off teh hbf.

getting polak , and lets hope he stays fit, means the tigers can have a much better structure and terry can get tiger team playing as he originally wanted
