Bradman Best

Came out of the blocks running when he first hit the NRL but haven't seen him have a good game for at least 18 months.

Seems lazy, injured and putting on to much bulk to be a centre for more than a couple more years.

Pass for me. Stick with Toa and Naden this year. Look for better.
He could have been promoted too quickly. Has yet to play more than 17 games in a season.
I think he could be on a big contract so would he perform better with a pay cut? He’s only 22 this year.
 
Wasn't Best in the same Australian Schoolboys team as Talau, Madden, Cini and Starford To'a? Interesting how they haven't really kicked on much.

Edit: yes it was the 2018 Schoolboys side. Sometimes these teams are full of really competent future first-graders, but the class of 2018 has really struggled to make a career of it.

Hey
Naden was a bulldogs reject and our best Centre/wing.

Best would easily outshine Toa, who is more a wing anyway.

We can't coach defense, so lets buy it.

??? To'a is our best outside back at the moment comfortably. Best would be taking Naden's left centre spot and Naden would be fighting with Noffa for a spot on the right wing.
 
Why would the knights let a truly good player go???

Will he improve here or do we need him ?

We need to improve by recruiting more like Api, papi and Klem
Good question Spartan, why would they let him go ? Newcastle boy, and continually talked up by AJ but not performing ? Why.
I’d be be doing some heavy due diligence before even talking to him.
