I glad he's back at our club. A true legend from 2005\. I remember back then when he'd get tackled 20 metres out but still reach out and score, champion then, legend now. And let's not forget in the grand final, he scored that amazing try from the Benji flick, all done with a broken leg.

Eight years later he's back doing 72 metre drop outs, scoring tries and kick goals from everywhere, his only miss hitting the upright.

Patty, I salute you.

yeh, when it was first publicised i was a big doubter, but then i watched the youtube video made by… dammit, sorry! name escapes me right now (always has the great vids?! anyway) i was really looking forward to him coming back. he certainly hasnt disappointed so far!
 
You feel confident when we score a try it will turn into 6 points - something which has let us down in the past. Can only be a good thing.

Ditto! Great to have him back

How good is he going, I always felt he would improve our defence just by the fact we would not be jumped over like Utai.

But 34 points in two games is an added bonus. I also look forward to kick off and drop outs as you just don't know what will happen.

Glad he is back.

He has been amazing in the two games. How good is it to have a real goal kicker. Love you Patty!

Never doubted his signing for a second. Quality player.

What makes him even better is the fact early in his career he had to come back from 2 badly broken legs. Had the same kind of run Scott Prince had early on.
 
Proving to be safe, reliable and capable of turning 4 points into 6 more often than not.
 
Doing far better than I initially thought , but he still really hasn't been tested defensively yet

Still concerns over his lateral movement imo

Then again if we keep picking Koroibete , Patty will never be tested
 
How good is he going??Those kicks are weapons in themselves,

I cant recall a player with that arsenal of kicks,and he is a bloody good finisher and goal kicker to boot…..to boot lols....

I am glad to have him back. He may turn out to be the NRL 'buy of the season'.

His certainly the Wests Tigers buy of the year.
Mr professional, has just slotted straight back in no problems the guy is fantastic.

He is a real professional. Lost a bit of pace but more that made up by other things.Great attitude, never take anything for granted. Our boys can learn off him.
