A chunk of Niu's training should consist of Milf putting up those wicked bombs for him, every day. Probably Milf's best skill these days.

An elite power running game but allergic to passing.
Only if he kicks them from across the river at Davies Park.

Can't wait for the sam walker circlejerk when they beat us this time. (even if he plays poorly).
Managed to avoid it last time with the win thank god. Get ready for the flurry of comments and articles afterwards "hOw dID tHeY lEt hiM gO".

Instinct, speed, great acceleration, footwork, good defence and size, plus he is a quality goal kicker
Worth a shot

Cool, sounds like he’d be a good soccer player.
…can he learn to pass in the off season? Asking for a friend because he could be top shelf

Well, I guess if he received the ball with more than 6" of room and less than 3 defenders on him, I suppose there's a possibility.
And yeah, I reckon he would go well at soccer. Maybe he should in get in touch with Man U ?
Don't agree with the great defense but the describes a great winger, not fullback. Niu is a fullback Farnworth isn't, why try and manufacture one. If Niu doesn't turn into the fullback that we want then go to the market, let Herbie become the winger we have needed.

Still wouldn't mind trying him at fullback, but I think with Brenko Lee next year he should go to wing, he will be able to use his pace much better there, our left gets really shit ball and his skills are wasted.
You have him next to Staggs and that is a lethal right edge.

The Roosters looked strong in tonight's game, they'll be harder to beat than the last time we played them that's for sure. He's got them playing some good footy with the players they have at their disposal.
I am suggesting if JWH didn't spend 10 in the bin they would have beaten Penrith.

Can't agree. A waste of skills.
Herbie is 1st or 2nd amongst our players in NRL line breaks, tackle breaks, run metres, post-contact metres, most runs. The only other is of course Payne Haas. As well, he is one of "better" players in missed tackles, way ahead of Turpin and Gamble.
Sounds like he's worth a shot at FB or stay in the centres with Staggs.
I'm happy to let him trial at fullback but I just don't see it . As for centre we have cobbo and mariner coming through who are actual centers. I think Herbie can thrive on the wing because all the skills your on about us perfectly suited for a winger.
