PLAYER Gehamat Shibasaki

He has done more this season in attack than he has in years .
Dunno what happened , but some thing has clicked after the 1st few rounds .
He has improved, but even his stats offensively like line breaks and tries, try assists that he was pulling off in 23 aren't there yet. 7 tries in 23, 1 this year.

I agree, he's getting there, but he was a man possessed in 23. Ran like his career was on the line.

Agree. In 2023 he was motivated by the loss of his mate. I’m not seeing that hunger and passion this year.

He was awesome against the Bulldogs when our big fellas were out, but that’s about it. Too easily thrown on his back and feels like it’s an eternity for him to get up.

One thing I’ve liked from this year is that he’s gone to the Angus Crichton School of Walking Off The Mark and is stealing one or two metres each PTB one he finally does get up.
 
The playing injured card was fair about 3 seasons ago .
Now it`s just an excuse .
I am trying to be diplomatic. Sometimes players are playing with pain and injury that we never know and it is affecting their form.
 
If comes home strong and starts again next year im happy to give him some extra in his contract.
 
23 Riki ?
He`s a better alround player this year . That race down and bully the full back act was more show than go .
I think he`s much better with the ball this year and hasn`t missed as many tackles .
I prefer 2025 Riki myself .
Hell no, what have you been watching mate Jordan only really started playing to 2023 quality like a month ago. We all wanted him gone until a month ago
