I agree, I am a big fan of mobile and rangy backrowers, especially because we don't currently have any. At the right price I think KPP has a huge upside and at Newcastle the entire forward pack has to do far too much defensive work.I think KPP is a talent and has all the tools. When we signed Samuela Fainu he was big and raw like KPP albeit younger than KPP.
The club just has to work out if the perceived laziness is due to the environment he's in or it's him. Outside of Kikau and Nikora a lot of backrowers are only as good as the ball they get from their halves as we saw from Papali'i once he left Moses' edge.
