Mate your stating what a good coach needs to instill in him. 👍Sniff around the middle is what irks me. Not once did he follow Luciano for a offload. He needs to move alot more.
Yeah he has definate upside. Stick with him for now.
He just needs to get game hardened, gain a metre of speed and yeh...listen to the new coach and buy in.
From the highlight reels, his tries have been opportunity stuff around the ball. This is what he needs to get back doing.
From my limited days of playing fullback I can remember that you really need to read both your mate carrying the ball and what the defenders are doing, you need to spot an opportunity and backup in the right spot.
When your not 100% fit you can get gassed making unnecessary support plays and miss the one time when you should have been there. Body language usually gives it away.
A lot of fullbacks become great players once they've learnt this craft, usually 25yrs+ of age.
As I keep saying he's young and needs developing but he hasn't earnt a big pay packet yet, far from it.
