Completely accurate, he's a trier and a great lad as well. I wouldn't be upset if we kept him but rumour I've heard is last season's second strings won't be back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fromafar Posted November 12, 2021 Report Share Posted November 12, 2021 It appears we have 12.64 to play with.That’s a fair amount if we can afford another decent heatleader! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BartoszZmarzlikFan Posted November 12, 2021 Report Share Posted November 12, 2021 1 more big hitter for Berwick then they'll have the dark horses tag next season. Need someone like R. Worrall, H. Andersen, A. Ellis or Jorgy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was brought up on bowes and Lyons, Parker and stancl, Parker and bird, Parker and greives, screen and Josh G, Lawson and summers all 8.5 average plus. Sub 7.5 doesn't strike me as a big hitter personally Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I disagree, I think it's more important to be solid, so Etheridge starts at reserve! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then when he moves out of reserve Berwick have one big hitter being backed up Ricky Wells at No.5 and that won't cut it when other teams will have 2/3 big hitters. Harris needs support in Heat 13's & 15. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While Berwick may be weaker in heats 13+15, they'd be stronger in heats 12+14! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personal preference is a strong 1 and 5 and at least one good reserve, but the only correct one will be the one that wind the league Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's how I'd build a side personally too. As you say strong 13 and 15 and on paper always a strong reserve if any of middle 3 having an off day and no pressure on no 7 to let them develop 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
