Shawn Blore #235

[Tim Sheens]

Just liked the look of him, on his toes throughout his unexpectedly long minutes, with a good frame that he is yet to grow fully within. No great expectations at this point, but see him being on the bench again this week with MCK out and pushing to be in the seventeen for the remainder of the season.

Am I the only one not getting carried away with Blore? No doubt he has potential to be a star, however he's still only played one NRL game. Calls for him to be made a future captain and locking him up for a further few years seem a bit premature, especially after he has come off 18 months of injuries.

I think the fact that that was his first game back for 18 months is something to get even more excited about imagine we he gets match fit

Everything in moderation.

I recall Luke Brooks having a standout debut and now a faction of fans want to get rid of him.

Blore looks like he’s got a bright future but how dumb is brown for running straight into him blore is a big unit will be interesting to see how he goes when players use footwork against him but good debut

Let's see how he's travelling at the end of next year

 

[gato]

It is a bit early to get carried away since he only has one nrl game but I did love the mongrel he showed. Brown wasn't the only one who copped it from him either

Seeing as he’s off contract at the end of next year, the club might want to move faster than that.

 

[Goldust]

I’m getting carried away very far
Haven’t been this excited about a tiger 🐯 in years 🧙🏽‍♂️

Can someone please remind me: how long did we sign Blore for?

Thanks champion @GNR4LIFE .

That means we need to get things moving before other clubs can legally stick their noses in our business.

Exactly. A strong debut is one thing, consistency is another. Let's give him time to settle in. He could go down the same path of Woods, Aloiai or Twal or become another Lovett, Groat, or Buchanan.

or become another Lovett, Groat, or Buchanan.

I think that's very unlikely.

Did you watch Blore play? He was better in those 46 minutes than Lovett, Groat or Buchanan ever were for us.

Appreciate members want to give it more time, but I've seen enough to extend him before Nov.

 

[weststigerman]

Can we extend his deal? Always found it odd he only signed a 1 year contract.

1 and a half

Maybe wait a bit after 1 game?

It did apparently start with 1 year, and then Penrith released him for this year.
