It's not an unknown. You can watch him in the Queensland Cup and see how he performs. I think your expectations of him are too high.

In other words, ignorance is bliss.

Fair enough, I'm certainly not claiming to be an expert here, I'm only going on the limited things I've seen but is it fair to say you don't personally don't think he would do better than a Gosiewski or Tawha? If not, fair enough, interested in your reasons why though.

See, but I want you to claim you're an expert and take that leap. The answers are out there and you've got a good eye for talent when you actually watch them.

I don't think he'd be an improvement. Even at QCup level he's a step behind the play and looks lost at times. While I didn't think Tawha deserved a recall last week, I could at least see him getting ready for the next play. I'm often watching Bryce and he's struggling to keep up play to play. I'm watching him put kick pressure on but it's like he never actually thought to make a tackle so he just leaves a yawning gap. Good intent but now you've just given the opposition a try-scoring opportunity out of nothing.

Then physically he's just struggling to assert himself.

The choice is more him and Gale. I'm not overly impressed with Gale myself but there was an opportunity last week and Gale out-played him. He can bend the line more and is more assertive with his play.

That's just how I see it. It doesn't mean I'm right and I'm sure you could make a compelling argument for Bryce. I just want to encourage posters to check things out for themselves and draw their own conclusions.
 
Jett has played like 7 Q-cup games while Gale has played like 77 games. To say there isn't much difference between the two isn't a knock on Jett, but a compliment.
