I would add nathan brown to the list. In theory he would be good. We could potentially get him at a subsidised salary and he is an aggressive enforcer type with good leg speed who tries to impose his will in attack and defence, which we are lacking in our pact.
I played fullback, wing and centre in juniors.
Nathan Brown is off to Melbourne next year. I’m certain of it.
I couldn't be happier for Brodie. How the **** did our halves brains trust manage to lose Walker and then **** up the development of Milford, Dearden and Croft? The last two are squarely on Kevvie, but he can at least share some of the blame for Milford.
Walters, Langer, and Lockyer are 3 of the best halves to ever play the game. You’d think they’d be able to identify or develop halves
Milf fucked his own career being a fat shit who couldn’t look after himself.
Boyd and Lockyer also top shelf fullbacks, and Boxhead, a Hall of Fame hooker. Plus Wally reckons he attends every training session.
Disagree on Croft, and especially casting shade on the Man of Steel award. Whatever way you want to spin it all these players arrived as future stars and left as basket cases. That's appalling man management.
Maybe all those players are just crap teachers.
I will continue to cast shade on the man of steel when Jai Field and Brodie Croft were the two fighting to receive the award. Jai dominates over there and rightfully deserved that but the level of defence in that comp is abysmal especially on edges and none of what they can do over there ends up transferable to here. The only value the super league has for development is a confidence booster and when you end up returning to shitty desperate clubs that confidence evaporates in the first 10 rounds and all of a sudden you wasted 12+ months of your career pretending like you somehow developed.
I’m not arguing but I will say that Hastings came back a better player
For sure, and I don't think things have improved enough at Brisbane to be any different now.
he was always a great player but was a dick , he came back grown up which is what happens when you spend time in another country fending for yourself.
