deluca

[Djevv]

I must confess that I'm in Phantom's camp with 'talls by 24'. Never seen Deluca play but surely there is still time for this kid? Same with Patto - not Tredrea :hihi but still young - who knows what he might develop into? It's not as if we don't need ruckmen!

Is anyone prepared to post reasons or stats why the bloke is hopeless - or just give opinions?

It's a pity thepowerfromport can't be read as a guest. I'd be interested to know what they think about Fabian there.

 

[Gus]

He's not yet 22, can he be rookied?

 

[Tigion]

well done to tigers for keeping the ruck options open wallace must of been away that day

 

[Tango]

i think everyone is righting patto off a little early
what other kid CHF are cutting the game apart - (yes i know u will say Franklin but hes a freak and a once in a generation type)

He's not yet 22, can he be rookied?

Yes but he's unbelievably timid, Gus. Not to say we couldn't do with another iron in the fire but for mine rucks have to be blue collar in attitude these days. We have some form from his brother too who was not without talent but couldn't harden up.

Prefer others.

Lol, now I understand why you get such a bad reception on here. Before I leave you, might I add that you're the only person I know who has an annoying online laugh. I thought it was hardly possible, but then you've managed to achieve it. Mind sending me a tape of your everyday, vocal laugh (if indeed you do laugh) so that I can examine it for that same self-importance and arrogance that you so graciously bless us with each day?

I hope you realise that I couldn't possibly enjoy The Sting nearly half as much now that I've come across you.

Heh heh heh... (I feel superior to everyone else already)

So, you've been "Redford-ed" now Broady. I don't think there's too many here that haven't been so it's all ok mate.

This thread is about Deluca and it would be appreciated if everyone got back on track. The couple of previously deleted posts can be sent by PM if desired.

Well if it is true and he is playing with the club I am happy with this at least. As been stated plenty, costs us nothing and we get to have a good look at him. If he can't beat Angus in the ruck and/or around ground you would think we would over look him.

One thing I will say for him, he is a decent size at 203cm 100kg. However what I have seen of him he is soft, doesn't work hard with his body and 1% or tackle.

I don't like that in rucks. His tap work seems ok, but he doesn't do much around ground using his body to block/sheperd or win possesion.

Due to his age no harm in having a closer look.

Er, no, that's not quite right.

Give it a miss will you Redders. If you have any queries contact the Mods privately.
