Will Addison

Post by Kanbei »

Signed from Sale. Their club captain. Can play Centre, Wing or Full Back. Can also goal kick.

Seems like a Payne replacement.

Seems a decent enough guy.

Should compliment Olding well in the midfield........

Don't think, in theory, it is a terrible signing on the face of it. He will be a squad player obviously. We have some very injury prone players and the squad lacks experience. As long as he isn't sh1t I don't mind.

Is he in the Ludik mould?

With him playing in Tobyland there is no excuse for UR not having taken the time to properly scout him. He isn't some unknown like a Brett Heron or yer man Windsor. He is playing regular rugby too.

The depth chart is absolutely woeful in the squad. Players who can cover the back three don't come around that often. Serious questions remain over the future of Jared Payne. That leaves Ludik as the only decent standard of fullback. On the wing we have Stockdale, Gilroy and Rob Lyttle. Trimble has been struggling for form. Lyttle seems to break every time he plays (Gilroy isn't far behind). Stockdale will be away with Ireland quite a bit. There might be players coming through but they remain untested.

The cupboard is bare.

As can be Lyttle with a bit of gametime, certainly has the boot for it.

Nelson was rather good in that run he had at 15 a season or two back when Payne was injured.

Trimble struggling to regain form because he doesn’t get selected and when he does it’s away from Ravenhill where ulster are expected to lose.

Fair chance of losing at home now too.
