What’s the go with Cobbo?

[Hoshsie]

Thought I would pose this question cause at the moment cobbo is way off the mark of a pro rugby league player, he looks slow, dumb, weak. I genuinely don’t understand why everyone kisses his ass, either he improves or we don’t re sign him and use the money elsewhere, make another team pay overs for him

 

[Kimlo]

I rated him at centre, but he's definitely not a winger.

 

[Nashy]

He is woeful. How many times you going to gamble with the sideline before you just fucking stop.

 

[mrslong]

Is a centre in the mould of jack reed.

I dunno, Cobbo seems more of an athlete while Reed was more of a "footballer"

Bloody hell, jack reed throwback

 

[BooKhaki]

He is being over-rated because he is a large athletic aboriginal, and the media love that they can lazily compare him to Inglis/Latrell. If Herbie played like he has, there is 0% chance he remains in first grade.

He has ability, but he is a long way from first grade standard.

19 years old and 10 nrl games in … talk about tough crowd

He’s a winger in a shit team. Worst gig in sport.

If you're old enough, you're good enough. All people can do is rate his performances, and so far this year they haven't been up to it. Even in round 1 when the media called him a star, he had a bad game.

He was good at centre in a shit team last year.

not a winger

We’ve so far played worse than we played toward the end of last year. Plus he has a senior player in extremely poor form next to him. He’s definitely struggling though snd doesn’t seem to be getting the development he needs

 

[nopatience101]

He’s a kid… he will have ups & downs, this is his first real season, after his first real preseason. It’s not his fault the media have hyped him up to ridiculous expectations he cannot possibly meet.

 

[Broncapz]

Over 4 mistakes a game is unacceptable.

I don't care if you're the next Optimus Prime.

Oh yeah we look real bad.

got to wonder about Kev, players look utterly confused.

I'd be getting Hodges or Jharal Yow Yeh to come in and mentor him. Those guys he probably would of grown up watching.
Pick a position for him and stick to it not a fullback, centre, wing work on being the one position. I think he should focus on being just a centre it's probably the position he looks most comfortable in.
A kid playing next to Kotoni ATM definitely would not be helping him.

 

[vertigo]

He just isn't ready.

Not first grade material - doesn't help he's playing outside another reserve grader.

Hodges is assistant coach at the Dolphins. How could that go wrong? He already has the ear of Steve Renouf. Mick De Vere, Jack Reed, Michael Hancock, David Staggs and Darren Burns also played in the 3/4s.
