Good signing, has that bit of mongrel in him as well, not sure how to take the kruise leeming signing? Is that the end for Powell or O’Neil? And or cust
My Rhinos friend tells me his defence is suspect but going forward he is much better, overall he thinks he will be a marginal only improvement on Powell, I trust Peet to improve him.

Sounds like there's a bit of the green eyed monster.

Came on against Saints and gave Cats some good energy in both attack and defence. Did a really good kick return for about 20 meters or so, bouncing and spinning off the defenders not slowing down into contact. A brilliant tackle held up Lussick over the line as well.

First time I’ve seen him play. He does run the ball in hard but looks a bit on the small side for me. Not the big aggressive front rower that I was hoping for.

Exactly this, it’s funny how different people perceive things. He had good energy levels and made a half decent tackle that’s about it for me. He looks exactly what I thought, lightweight. Maybe he will be ok taking a carry in space after a big forward but under the pump in your own 20 he’s not gonna make enough yards I don’t think.

We are obsessed with signing under sized project forwards.
