I'm astonished by the pic i saw of him a few days ago(if true,no reason not to) If that sloth can tone up to look the part ,the sky shouldn't necessarily be the limit

The bloke has come off 3 ACLs it’s gonna take him some time to get his defence rite. I’ve seen him run as hard as he can when carrying the ball out of yardage he’s definitely not scared of contact. The bloke just needs to shut up and let his football do the talking.

I like AD, hard worker,

Good squad member.

He will.be better in 2025

Sounds like the coaching staff have been very big on hard work in pre season this year, and if they're going to base team selections partly on that, it throws AD right in the mix.

Obviously has his defensive issues at centre (I've always thought his best position is 5/8) but willing to give him a chance coming off a full pre season before writing him off. Still showed plenty of attacking fire power last year

I agree he is a 5/8. He has a running game and long kick on him. If his defence has improved by1000% he could do a job at centre. In the past he has let in soft tries. We need to keep the opposition under 20 points to win.

His defence is diabolical . I don’t think anyone can debate that . And for a guy who has a great long passing game , he sure doesn’t like to pass when he’s in the centres.
I’ve said this before I thought he had origin level potential with his running game , and intangibles . It doesn’t look like he will get anywhere near that , and it will be an attitude thing . Because defence is an attitude more than anything.
He’s still relatively young though . There’s enough time for him to find a way to rip in in defence . He just needs to lose the aspirations to be a 6 . And rip in as a centre .
It’s strange that someone like lomax , all he wants to do is be a centre , when the jury is still out on him in the centres , and yet someone like AD , where it’s clearly his best position , doesn’t want a bar of it .

18th man is Douhie’s spot

 

[Spartan117]

18th man is Douhie’s spot

If there are no injuries.
Let's see what happens this year.

 

[TigerJunior4]

Yeah and it's on his knee add his defensive issues highly unlikely with us next year grave fears the knee even makes it to the end of the season.

Yeah the knees are so frail at this stage he’s close to an early retirement. It definitely affects his lateral movement so I feel like he’ll always be a defensive liability in the centres despite it being his best position.

Mate if he had any brains instead of slimming down for his deluded dream of playing half work at getting bigger and strengthening the muscles around the knee would be the smart option.

 

[BunganHead Tiger]

We’re only one good centre away from him being goneski. He’s just a Band-Aid player at this point.

Absolutely... and with the distinct possibility of Taylan May joining us, as well as a real young gem like Makasini in the wings time is not on AD's side!
