I think Gold Coasttiger called him a myth for 3yrs straight
I did And he Was
1 also said that I thouhjt he was better than the other Myth, but needed help from the club , in that he was thrown in the deep end with Moses instead of someone with at least an ounce of experience to help him develop.
If he ( and Moses ) had been playing reserve Grade instead of first grade on big money that was way above their performance level , I don’t think many would have been criticising him.
But he was in first grade, on big money and mostly Badly underperforming.
He was the least of the big Four that the club wanted to retain as was shown with the lowest money of all of them being offered and he couldn’t get a better offer any where in the NRL
His kicking was Poo ,and (on some days) is not much better even now.
Over all , he’s improved out of sight in a lot of things, he isn’t the same speed bump that he was, but he’s still eeds to improve things like his kicking game, his running game has never been questioned by me.
I always hoped that he would outlast Moses here , mainly because of that debut game where he smashed the Game and showed what he was capable of,
But it never happened., but it’s starting to.
I Think a bit of the reason that I hoped he would improve was that he wasn’t Moses!
He seems to be the kind of kid that most people want good things for, and while I wouldn’t change my former comments about his game at that time, I couldn’t be happier for him to show that he has got the ability ( and the attitude)to be a genuine First Grader. Hopefully, For a long time.
