Reuben Porter #287

[The Chad]

I can't find a thread dedicated to Porter.

I just want to acknowledge the effort he has put in since stepping into 1st grade. He seems to offer a lot of stability on his edge, or through the middle if required.

Given his contract status, I believe he is a must-keep type of player. Very solid defensively & just doesn't do any boneheaded plays.

Clubs need Reuben Porter type players.

He's got a mistake or two in him but there's definitely potential

I know that Klemmer, Bateman, and Papali'i are good players, but I'm liking what I'm seeing from these guys who have been playing cup. Kind of want to see more of them.

 

[Vicious]

He has been one of our better players all season in NSW Cuo, so definitely deserved his call up and has not looked out of place playing NRL.

 

[Demps]

He's not the first career lower grader to come to the Tigers and get a long awaited debut

I like what I've seen from him
Solid, worker.
Can only get better playing first grade.

Good work to him and Benji for giving him a chance.

Exactly the type of players required for spots 20-30 in a roster. Need some experienced depth players mixed with the youth.

He seems like a good guy too. Has had to work really hard for a long time to get this chance. Been impressed with him.

Reuben got stage fright with the line wide open in front of him yesterday, but still well and truly earned his spot by getting on top of his opposite in Hudson Young for most if the match.

 

[BlackWhiteGold]

Has certainly played himself into a renewal of his Train & Trial contract for next season.

Porter & Faataape should only be T&T contracts moving forward, great depth and experience for NSW Cup and when called upon for NRL.

 

[Demps]

Wondering if this lad will be retained.

He was on a T&T deal, as far as I know.
Hopefully we keep him on a cup contract or something.

Cup/ T&T is his level. Hope we keen him but not top 30

Good cup player / first grade back up.

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Family man. Happy to be with us. Good money. Not a bad player. Full of passion.

I’m keen on him as a cup player but definitely not nrl his behind the raw interview left me knowing why he wasn’t a regular first grader
