Not too sure what happens with Cobbo and Staggs but Verhoeven has been outstanding at Meninga this year.
His strength and balance are unbelievable, scores himself- 10 tries in 10 games, or holds up two guys to pass unmarked to his winger- being a winger outside him would be a dream. He's been resilient missed week one of the finals with a calf injury and week two scores within five minutes against the premiers.
He's signed until 2027, and I would be locking that down even more. Everyone will be watching the Grand Final tomorrow. The last time he played Dolphins, three tries, they lost but it was just beautiful centre running, hard fast with a fend.
He's just turned 18 so can play Cup straight away, if he takes to Cup and I can't see how or why he wouldn't I wouldn't be surprised if he's playing NRL in 12 months.
To move over here at 17, play your first year of Mening and dominate is no little feat and he's ticked every box so far.
