Twiddle has a lot of work to do on his defence.
I personally believe he wont ever be a first choice fullback in the NRL. I think he lacks a bit of acceleration, top speed and footwork. Plus there are many gun fullbacks in the NRL and more coming through the grades. Got players like Koula who could be gun fullbacks but play centre for their club. So yea, I think Twiddle needs to work on playing 5/8, centre and lock. Be a perfect utility.
EA, give me some perspective....you have probably seen more than most of Pezet through the minors, how do you compare him with what we have coming through at the moment?
From the sounds of this question it means Parra are finally getting depth and making the players decide. That's what the successful clubs do, buy as much talent as they can and let the cream rise. If they don't rise, discard and start again.
What we do with Lorenzo?
Could be future 6 with Pezet 7
Lorenzo what about Joash if Pezet is sealed Joash may aswell start looking for a new club also.
As I said in the comment, how tf do we even put Papalii, Lorenzo, Twiddle, Hawkins and Volkman into a nsw cup team?
I am personally still undecided on Pezet
We might have to be a bit ruthless. Volkman may be the odd man out there. Of all the players on that list, only Hawkins has more NRL experience. So you'd leave Twidle at fullback, Joash and Volkman in the halves, Renzo off the bench.
I dont see any NRL future for Volkman personally. Cannot see his defence improving. Renzo will have the same issue has him if his defence doesnt improve.
