When he's good, he's good but when he's bad he's horrid.
Does look top drawer sometimes but at others he goes missing.

As I said IMO
Dureau can be very hot BUT when the chips are down, in the biggest matches he tends to go missing and his defensive frailities let him down. He can be spotted and worked over.
Everybody is entitled to their opinion BUT ask yourself
Why did Dureau or Dobson never cut it in Aus. An opportunity opened up for Dureau and his club decided to look elsewhere.
Not sure Dureau is any better than Dobson.

that can be pretty much attributed to any half back though

Not many halves in SL would cut it sccessfully in Australia NRL.
IMO if Henderson is out or injured Les Cats struggle more than Dureau going missing in their team.
Robinson has had to switch Dureau to 9 more often this season with Henderson taking knocks, Robinson admitting that this was less effective.
Saying that Dureau has a good passing and kicking game but he is no Tommy.
With tommy leaving, if finchy goes aswell who do you think will replace them ?

I would like to see dureau, brough or matty smith, someone with proven super league quality. not someone from nrl thats going to come over and leave after a few seasons home sick. I would also like to see sam back at 6 if finchy leaves with richard owen from castleford going fullback but thats just my opinion

Matty Russell is better than Owen.
Sam is by far the best FB in SL so why move him?
Matty Smith is a good option as is Soward, that said Powell is worth a shot if he can rediscover his form pre injury!
