Well said Earl.I love this kid. I just like him as a person. He seems to me like a good guy. I like seeing Indigenous players do well. At the same time I've been pushing for a better fullback for a while. I just didn't think he was coming on enough.
He did everything right out there. So many special plays. Running wide of Brooks and passing to Naden to score. He got smashed playing that role early in the game but kept doing it. He also followed Doueihi for the should have been winning try and again gave a great pass.
Awesome stuff.
People have to put things into perspective.
Last year having come from the Panthers he showed some glimpses of being a good buy. He and AD were our attacking hopes but AD got injured and in the end so did Laurie.
Laurie came back this year and has taken a bit more time to hit his straps with that knee....he is only a little fella heh.
Now I believe he doesn't think about that knee and is running freely.
He was criticised for taking time to go to his rellies funeral and also celebrating his old panther mates GF victory.
He acknowledged that this was a bad look and so be it, but it does say something about how much mates and family mean to him.
Gardiner said tonight how much he jokes and laughs at training and how much he's liked at the club.
Hopefully that bond is infectious and we get some brotherhood happening moving forward.
