i agree d'Pie. i'd much prefer to see tarks on a half-back flank rather than deep in defence. i think wazza is pretty decent in a pressure situation; he's done some sterling marking jobs on several players this year - winston abraham in particular.

Wazza in a pressure situation? Pffft the guy can't hit a target when theres no pressure on him. Deep in Defence? No way. He is like a reocurring Nightmare in Defence. He'll get the ball in the Defensive 50 and take a bounce, using his pace to his advantage then when our defenders start to stream down the ground he will kick it straight to an opposition player or 50/50 contest at best and our defenders are put out of position. I agree Wasley has talent but until his disposal improves I don't think he deserves a spot in the Senior side. Seems destined to become a good reserves player of which we have seen too many of already, eg Wild, Patterson, Sharkey and the likes.
