Reece Lyne : Sat Feb 16, 2019 9:06 am  

Please Mr Chester

Can the coaching staff please get Reece Lyne to run straight lines, instead of crabbing it across the field. Ben Jones must get fed up of him running away from him, and let's have Jowett at full back so Rocky can play off the bench as a second hooker.

He runs back across the defence looking for an opening.
When opposition players do that to us gets me worried.Now I am not by any means making a comparison here , but Ellery Hanley was at his most dangerous doing the same. Our own great Harold Poynton did the same.
Hull’s Jake Connor is dangerous when going across the face of the defence and suddenly is through a gap.

I'm quite happy not to judge anyone on their inability to find a gap against the team that was head and shoulders above everyone else last year. If Barba could tackle as well as he could attack, they would have probably won the Grand Final. Instead, they had a very fancy turnstile (and idiot, as it transpired).

There are things I'd like to add to Lyne's game but I'm ok with him. He runs across when he feels that's a better option.
He get's good results so I'm ok with it.

rofl

no Barba couldn't stop a tap running, Sts had to cover him for that but they made a decent job of it and allowed him to do what he does best, its always a compromise though.
reminds me of Tupou (not a big Centre by any stretch) last season taking both Barba and 2 others over the line to score, nothing on tbf he just flattened all of em...and Barba was just sat there with a face like a smacked 4rs3..

he knew alright.

I'm quite happy with what reece does

As he runs back across the defensive line I'd like to see some one looking to punch through the defensive line off the back of those runs

Re: Reece Lyne : Sun Feb 17, 2019 8:46 am  

The laterall runs don’t bother me, just needs to be more comfortable passing the ball.

Re: Reece Lyne : Sun Feb 17, 2019 10:05 pm  

so you guys would not have ben Barba in your team? come on.

take away his massive indiscretions of course


I am hearing super league may re think and allow him back in with strong conditions.

Reece Lyne tries his best & I applaud that, however, I have to agree with the original post & would add he simply is the most meter maker in super league for side wards running ! No other centre who is an international does this side wards running, they play forward running either to off load & or get tackled & then play the ball quickly !
But if Reece wants to be can produce the goods !
I am sure Wayne Bennett would dis-approve of all this side says play !
Up the trin !
