HAL 18/19 - Round 1 - Nix v Jets - Sunday 21/10/18 3PM

[Charlie Chan]

Jair needs to play at the point and we need speed on the flanks i would like to see Austin start

[Alton]

i want to see Jair up top, doesn't look fast enough for me out wide

He has to play up top, I rate Ernie but I thought playing him wide and Jackson at right back were poor decisions

[Maito Mitch]

What odds are being offered about Jair not being here after Christmas ? I hope Lawrie kept the receipt and that the store has a good returns policy.

I thought he actually looked quite good against Wanderers at Maitland. Then again I didn't have a great view but I still think he'll be a good pick up

[Imyourhero]

Jair up top, Austin out wide, Vujica in for Jackson

[Bon]

Jair up top, Austin out wide, Vujica in for Jackson

This.

[Jeterpool]

Jair up top, Austin out wide, Vujica in for Jackson

And I assume you're dropping Hoff to accomodate Austin?

Yes.

[Imyourhero]

Correct

HOFF is a great squaddie starting striker me think not

Bloke cost us a grand final by missing not 1 but 2 sitters

He aint a back up anything up front


Play him at Full Back or he rides the pine

He aint and will never be good enough at this level in the attascking roles

Move on

He was good enough last season but lets ignore that

[MFKS]

Good enough laat season??

In the finals he missed a hatful of chances

That isnt good enough

He is a fullback at HAL level and that is it

To be relying on playing him further forward is more of an indictment on our recruitment and current squad list

[380]

Good enough for what last season ?. Nabbout carried the can for us in Roy's absence and Hoff chipped in with some.

You want Hoff to lead the line in Roy's absence ?. Nearly a third of the season with Hoff at the point ?.

Go watch a replay of the GF and then come back and tell us you want to give the likes of the two Melbourne clubs and the Smurfs the luxury of that sort of headstart because we played Hoff as a nine for the duration.

Like the member said if Hoff is our plan B at the point that is a poor reflection on Ernie and Lawrie, With an entire off season to address Roy's absence adequately.

[StannyCFCJET]

I'm saying Hoff was good enough to play in the front 4 last season and I'll stand by that

Me neither , more than happy for him to come off the bench at some stage during a game and fill a spot in the front four.

[plague]

Maybe it's some of you blokes that suck.
Ever considered that?
