Mmbye was much like Douhie

Is Douhie a first grade

Fullback

five eight

Centre

Lock

or Super Sub 

That’s an insult to Doueihi. Not in the same class. Doueihi has passion, Mbye does not.

If Mbye sorted his drops under the high ball he is in a completely different class as a fullback, I think that is an area he definitely could have improved.

Agreed, other than AD being safer under the high ball, Mbye was a better fullback than Douiehi.

So Douhie has a bit of passion, ok ... he trains hard and has a cry when we get beat which is great good commitment but is he an out and out 6 don't think so, is he a 1 proven a bit slow for that

Maybe his future is at centre or lock or super sub if he wants to be a 6 well it may not be at the Tigers

Going to be interesting to see where he ends up.

He has potential at 6, but needs to improve in a couple of areas, namely creating space for his outside men. I think this is an area that could be improved with good coaching.

@tiger5150 Mbye also needed to work on his kick return effort and enthusiasm. Was very keen to offload.

 

Better speed, think AD the better ball player.

AD still needs to work on his ball playing.  He needs to straighten the attack to create room for his outside backs and deliver the ball into that space.

Agree regarding the kick return, partially a factor of a small body. Disagree regarding ball playing. It was Mbyes strength, AD's weakness (IMO).
