  • Great to see a half run the ball but soft defence, the second try whilst involving luck was well backed up. Looking at our 20's so many islanders that just look big. I hope they are not being picked purely on size as we sure could use a ballplaying forward like a Kenny Edwards right now.

    • Are you serious, why get Moses lol.
      Dargan is nowhere near nrl standard, and it's unknown if he will ever be.
    • Steve I'm with you on the club definitely keeping Dargan, but I don't see him being up to first grade quality anytime soon.

      Defensively I can't see him stepping up, and attacking wise Moses is a far superior in all facets.

      I still think if good enough, Dargan can push for a top 17 spot in a year or two.
    • Would hate to lose him also, but with moses n norman in front of him i cant see him getting a run anytime soon. If hes 1-2 yrs away from 1st grade, then maybe covert him to hooker. there has been plenty of halves who have sucessfully made the transition.
  • Well said Chief. If Dargan can at least become a left footed backup for Norman he will have gone further than most star NYC halves.
  • He's named for wenty again this week and has played a couple of wenty games this season. Brad likes to give players like him a tester ala French and rotate them between the two to minimise burnout.
