That’s because Mam’s competition at 6 is Gamble, Kelly, Staggs, Roberts, and Martin - 5 experienced players, each with a more rounded skill sets at this stage of their development than the 18 year old Mam.
Its a 2 way race between Gamble and Kelly their the 2 with the runs on the board already.
I'm not downplaying his contribution at all.. he got his opportunity took it with both hands and done a good job there but did form in ISC playing fullback get him the opportunity? I don't think so.. it was a pretty much a case of last man standing and he done well but it could have easily been Herbie given that opportunity is what I am saying.
He went alright but there wasn’t really any competition. I think he far from made the position his own.
I’m not saying Cobbo will either. Why does a comment about Niu have to mean Im arguing for Cobbo?
Where is the ‘fingers crossed’ reaction?
I agree that Niu gets first shot at fullback and I’ve said as much. I don’t think either is a particularly good option but Niu wins for now and that’s at least partly due to a mentality that I’d rather see his development ruined rather than Cobbos by being the thrown in the deep end too soon.
Stop saying stupid shit… All of you. **** me just cause a player plays first grade doesn’t mean it ***** there development. Tesi Niu would not be as good as he is right now if he spent the last 10 games playing q-cup. Everyone has their own way of developing and just cause Dearden choked on a fat **** doesn’t mean everyone else’s development is wrong. I hate hearing that. Yes maybe if your a halfback and hooker I agree it would be rushing them in but a fucken running fullback carrying his reserve grade side isn’t necessarily in the same basket.
He’s not Darren but is he. Everyone has there own path
Just out of curiosity, how many heart attacks have you had?
I agree it depends on the player and position.
