Prince trying to hard ?

Prince trying to hard ?

IMO yes, he is trying to direct every play, he needs to start injecting himself when he sees something, instead of 50 touches of the ball with zero result.

Watch Lockyer, he stays back and lets the play unfold, then when he senses something (counting numbers), he speeds the play up, and executes.

Everyone keeps saying he should do more, every week he tries to, and every week he is getting worse, he needs IMO the exact opposite. He needs to do less, it makes the team as a whole a lot more dangerous, and him in general back to what he does best.

I think this supports my case to play Prince at 5/8. There was some talk that this was the way we were going to go but it seems to have been shelved. Started to work well when he was two passes wide. Would like to see Presto or Capewell or Henry at half with Prince at 5/8 for a few games.

I dont know why they havnt gone with this. I have even asked a few of the players and they not only like the idea but have talked about it themselves.

Prince is going to be peppered by Gallen all Saturday evening. Last week it was Dave Taylor slapping him around the park, this week it will be Gallen jeepers

Personally, the running teams like Dragons and Tigers never worry me too much but the monster packs like Cowboys and Sharks always do us ... this week with everybody looking over their shoulders for Tagataese ... it's going to be hard night at the office (and in the stands).

"With an injury cloud hanging over pack leader Luke Bailey (knee), Mark Minichiello (knee), Preston Campbell (wrist), Joseph Tomane (groin) and Michael Henderson (concussion), Titans trained yesterday with an extended squad that included the likes of young playmaker Jordan Rankin, emerging prop Luke Page and Burleigh bookend Brenton Lawrence."

Your not going to get results just by shifting players around...we need attacking plays the players can threaten the line with.

I don't know who you think will run the team better then Prince at half back.

You can still focus on attacking plays from the 5/8 and allow Prince to feed him quality ball.

Esi returns to left centre and Toops switches over to right this weekend.
