Player Watch #30: Charlie Comben - signed til end '27

[DocSholl]

His ability to defend is improving. It's easy to forget he really is a baby as a defender, and I'd argue he's shown more than Robbie Tarrant at the same age.

As a footballer or as a defender? I reckon Robbie looked at home down back almost from day one

 

[king of the road]

king of the road what did he do mate? Its lucky that spud Lynch cant ****in kick straight

Maybe you can’t see straight? Chom didn’t play on Lynch. Pink did.
Chom was busy making the 11 spoils he made.
Also, giving us the chance to win the game against the Lions last week - almost BOG.

Anyway, not sure why you’ve called me out in this thread. Is it because I disagreed with this post from you:

Spud. Traded/delisted

Not sure what you’re getting so upset about. You’re clearly wrong and way off the mark. Ken oath I disagree with that statement.

The questions of forward or defence are over for mine. Defence is his go, in 5 years time he'll be in the best handful in the comp

Tarrant was a pretty natural footballer but otherwise pretty much agree. Charlie is just about clocking up his first season worth of games at any senior level so is going pretty well IMO.

Some social pages article on Charlie dating an ex teammates sister in the Hun which I can't see because I don't pay.

Assume it's Josie Horne-Francis.

He used to date Cardio Curtis' sister.

Back together. "Hard Launched" the relationship via radio.

I’m just reading this at my local, 23 broken bones Wtaf - and did George not buy a bed frame due to the slats not standing a chance?

becoming a seriously good defender

He doesn’t need to do the highlight marks every week. If we don’t notice him he’s doing his job.


Didn’t notice him much tonight

Did pretty well. Seems to have some chemistry with Hardeman.

is playing betternow without a Logue/Corr combop which is a disaster for the backline.

Corr has been playing himself out of a spot in recent games, genuinely shit last night.

Our senior players simply can't be that awful with a kinda winnable game on the line.

 

[The Nostradamus]

Thank god for this bloke

He must look around and just be in shock at the incompetence in the backline that he is surrounded by

 

[shintemaster]

Really starting to build into the role now which is a big tick. Can't wait to see how he is going with a couple of full seasons under his belt and some competent senior assistance.

 

[scottywiper]

Charlie should pull teammates aside and ask them if they ever intend to attack a contest with anything like his level of desperation.
I also think he needs to go back forward at some point. Darling not doibg a lot, Larkey poor. We need a genuine aerial threat, especially the way we are playing.

 

[tazaa]

Some really solid and needed spoils last night

[Chadwiko]

Hurt the shoulder that wasn't strapped. Looked bad. Likely season done, to be honest.

 

[Chip Scab1]

We have MWhitlock ready to step up with finals on the line this week. Huge game.

 

[Psychic Roo]

Was on ground after game and no sling. May be ok

 

[hotchilli]

Always a nervous wait when Chom's bones are involved.
