NEWS It's okay to talk about Blake Mozer

Blossoming hooker Blake Mozer - already drawing comparisons with Josh Hodgson - is training with Brisbane’s top squad for their 2022 pre-season, as one of six youngsters awarded development contracts. His Keebra coach Glen Campbell, urged the Broncos to cling onto him for “grim death." Which they did. He's currently contracted until the end of 2023.

Ryan James:

“He looks good. The hardest thing about a dummy half is getting to know the hooker’s game. I ran him off the ball a few times out there and you have to get to know your hooker because they have one of the most important roles.”

Looks good

Mozer:

“I have been at the Broncos since I was 13 and signed since I was 15. The Broncos have developed me brilliantly. I wouldn’t be here without the Broncos. Their development is awesome. Now that I am getting older, it is more about strength and the fitness component to get me ready for the next chapter after school. The Broncos obviously see something in me in my position and for me it is about working hard to get to play NRL one day.”

“It is weird not being the stereotypical short and stocky dummy-half but I have used it to my advantage. I got the opportunity to go to Melbourne and watch the Storm where I met Cameron Smith. He has obviously been my biggest inspiration. There aren’t many that have ever compared to him. I am still eligible for Mal Meninga Cup, so I will probably start there and try and work my way up to Queensland Cup.”

I took this as Ryan James taking hitups off of Mozer's passes from dummy half. Otherwise the rest of the quote makes no sense.
I thought it looked weird 😅 maybe you're right.
But it did say
ran him off the ball.
Not he ran the ball off him.

He could of been meaning he is good but needs some practice/experience.

Verbatim from the paper, but yes, looks like a typo or slip of the tongue. If you haven't seen his press conference, watch it. He's a cool head, a bit like Te'o. I like him.

 
Hopefully once season 2022 starts he can put his head down and play and continue to develop without the spotlight...
