All this talk of Hastings having no talent
- He played NSW U16s, U18s, Australian School boys, Junior Kangaroos
- He debited for the Roosters at 18 the benchmark club in the comp playing 32 games in 2 years
- He has played and won an NRL semi at Halfback (unlike our current halfback)
- He played 1 year in UK Super League and won man of steel and made his debut for Great Britain
- At NRL Level he has kicked 29 goals from 35 attempts


He has had some problems with his attitude but they seems to be fixed - his talent imo has never been the issue

Totally respect your opinion. I’m not worried about his attitude or him being a bit different. When I’ve watched him in NRL he gets too involved, rushes everything, tries to do everything resulting in errors and poor decisions. Another way to explain would be to say he runs around like a headless chook!! He displays little spark at all. Not a fan at all

Certainly not the type of player we want... haha

He might for the rite money everybody has there price

Latrell didn’t. Neither did arrow.

I thought that Arrow was going to Souths for the right money (or maybe less money).

No pace at all so no spark. I can't believe in our pedestrian backline some are wanting to add another slow back.

He was Aussie Schoolboys captain and I always expected him to kick on and he never did (in Aus). Was a disappointment.

Good thing our CEO has identified that we're chasing speed.

In the Super League last year he topped the try assists with 36 - the next best was 22

All your quoting of his statistics has no point - what did he do in the NRL games?

Plenty of players are up for schoolboy games (NSW, Australia and Kangaroos) and then fade into oblivion.

He debuted at 18 - big deal, so have many players and there will be many more.

He may have won a semi - but I would not swap him for Brooks (no way).

As some would say on here Lolohea, Rankin etc. are playing ESL and they wouldn't want them back. ESL is a different kettle of fish to NRL.

As for Golden Boot - it is just political - Just like Slater winning "Man of the Series" at SOO.

Tell me about his great form for Great Britain in the recent series where they did not win a game (he played in all 4). He was pathetic!!!

Maybe we could use him as a goal kicker in the CC - if he could earn a spot, but I don't think so.

He's as slow as Cooper Kronk.

Jordan Rankin debuted at 16 didn’t he?

 

[avocadoontoast]

Arrow to Souths official.

For 2021 at this stage

Apparently Alex Johnston is a tiger, I think he's not much of a upgrade on Thompson if he is to play fullback, and I would rather have Thompson as he gives his 100% for the club. so he's spot is the wing where he will have to battle with Nofoalula and momo to start

Momo is first pick for the centres IMO.

If AJ is coming he'll be playing fullback. If there's one thing we can be sure of it's Madge wanted a fullback. Milford, Moylan, Mitchell, Brimson, Lomax were all names thrown up that we were chasing.
