Sniff around the middle is what irks me. Not once did he follow Luciano for a offload. He needs to move alot more.

Yeah he has definate upside. Stick with him for now.

Mate your stating what a good coach needs to instill in him. 👍
He just needs to get game hardened, gain a metre of speed and yeh...listen to the new coach and buy in.
From the highlight reels, his tries have been opportunity stuff around the ball. This is what he needs to get back doing.
From my limited days of playing fullback I can remember that you really need to read both your mate carrying the ball and what the defenders are doing, you need to spot an opportunity and backup in the right spot.
When your not 100% fit you can get gassed making unnecessary support plays and miss the one time when you should have been there. Body language usually gives it away.
A lot of fullbacks become great players once they've learnt this craft, usually 25yrs+ of age.
As I keep saying he's young and needs developing but he hasn't earnt a big pay packet yet, far from it.

I agree, it’s not rocket science.
Talk like a pirate day is the 19/September.
Is that 4x your drinking or did you just kiss that bottle twice.

XXXX is the only thing I don't like about Qld. 🤣
I actually don't drink much since guzzling came in. Don't need a stubby cooler for my Tooheys New.
I've actually cut down my intake of alcohol, I only drink now at ¼ past 🤔

He's not there mate, Because he's lazy....

His effort to get to most positions on the field in attack and defence is barely there.... Bar his 3-4 highlights that everyone hangs their hat on.

We don't have better for the moment - And he might be amazing.....
But he can come good in ressies.....

Lets sign a good one.

I think a lot of it is a lack of confidence not laziness.
He's a shy kid by nature, get out of your shell I'd be telling him. Get more assertive.
The NRL is not a place for hesitant players.
I agree atm he's not a top spine player and could be used as a back-up player learning his trade in reggies. The new "development" coach may have some imput.
The whole team is all over the place atm.
I think it's about time we hand out some spinach.

Seriously, in his defence, just how many offloads have the Tigers actually racked up?
 
That's right, and nothing used to peave me off more than making an effort to support and the lead pulls it back in, then have to run back to fullback.
Besides the best offload is the one in the line, or off the shoulder.
Offloads going backwards are easily defended.

The development coach they want is the one that got him to where he was before us.... 4th choice fullback in a top 4 team.

2nd choice in a top team I can wear - Not 4th....

If you say so batboy 👍
I value your judgement and commonsense statements.
I still recommend spinach 😁
I'm getting to the point (and age) now that just watching footy is better than preseason and I just want to get this shite fight for a coach sorted out, get players who play a decent brand of footy for the bloody money the club forks out to them.....and to stop looking like a bunch of nuffties acting like everything is under control.
