Johns admits he underestimated Mortimer

Posted by 1Eyed Eel on September 27, 2009 at 9:11am
I WAS wrong about Daniel Mortimer and I don't mind admitting it. When I started working with him last December, I thought he was 18 months away from being ready for NRL football. I told Eels coach Daniel Anderson as much. At the time, he didn't disagree. Physically, Mortimer was nowhere near ready. Skill-wise, I had a question mark over him as well. But sometimes you get it wrong with players. And in Mortimer's case, I definitely got it wrong.
