- As discussed yesterday whilst Tom may be a standout in the Qld Cup, the NRL is a different show altogether. Question marks will remain until proven otherwise.
- I not sure how our recruitment strategy works when you read we have offered and I quote ' a substantially more lucrative offer then other NRL clubs' unquote to a unkown and untested player in the NRL when we already have a player in Robson but also more importantly how we have also let some fine NYC players go.
- I hope this kid works out cause it looks like we have paid some $ for him aand at the expense of our own talent.
i guess this means bye bye robbo.but this is a good depth signing. i know mitchell is likely to get the no. 14 jersey, but is this humble guy a chance of getting that bench spot
The interesting point is why exactly have we signed him? Have we signed him as a an outside back? Have we signed him as half? Have we signed him as a Utility?
Is the plan for him to start in first grade next season? Imo i can't really see where he would get a start in our squad, we already have a surplus of quality outside backs, and we have KK and Morts primed to be our starting halves next season. However parra must have given Humble some sort of extra incentive to come to us, he knows he could have gone straight into fullbck for the cowboys next season, and he is from the Townsville area so it just makes sense.
IT doesnt make sense for a kid from Nth Qld to come to Parramatta, to play NSW Cup which is an inferior competition compared to the QLD Cup where Humble has already proven to be a class above.
I am excited about this signing, as obviously Humble can play footy and he is only 20 years old so he will only improve. However it puts further doubt in my mind over the future of Jeff Robson and it even makes me unfortunately once agains question the futures of Grothe and Burt.
maybe he'll get a crack at the no 14 that will likely be left open by kinga.
maybe ando sees him as a better organiser than KK and wants him to play 7......i hope not cause KK deserves it. i would be happy to see KK and humble battle it out for a spot.
