Don`t want to sound facetious, but I think Jordy Crowthers best position is on the bench. Like a few have said that, he his a utility forward. Coming off the bench he can cover 4 positions fresh, but when in the first 13 he has just got the one, unless someone gets injured, then he`s the go too player who gets shuffled about.

Were you there yesterday?

No BG I wasnt , but I have seen him all this season. For all the commitment that he shows I still think he is a good team player, but I think he makes a better impact covering from the bench.

I’m more than happy for Crowther to start at LF forward next season. Think he’s been much improved and good this season. He is an out and out 13 for me who in an emergency can fill in at 9. I’m not sure he’s a second rower but that doesn’t matter as for me he starts at 13. I wasn’t convinced by Crowther last season but this year he is looking good. He has developed physically, is strong in defence and drives in well but seems to offer decent link up options.

Always good to see a Wakey product showing growth and improving.

See him as a 13 or SR.

Same here. He can play 9 but that doesn’t make him one. I’m sure he’d play anywhere but he looks a 13 to me.

I’m hoping with his versatility of playing at 9, he can become more of a ball playing 13. Our very own Victor the Inflictor.

Jordy put a great shift in yesterday - his drive forward and tackles were solid - be surprised if he missed one.

34 tackles, 1 missed according to the stats

Looks like we are going to have to disagree on this occasion then.....
I see him as a starting 13 like a few others on here......

That’s not a problem BG. That’s why we have a forum. I agree that his form this season as improved immensely.
