            • All three are different types of players. Tualagi has a higher ceiling in term of attack with his athletic, offloading and tackling breaking ability. He can pull off a big hit as well.

              Moretti is a high leg speed player that can play middle and a bit of edge. Moretti still has an error in him every game unfortunately even in cup. I think Moretti body shape and skills suit the modern game so the club should spend a lot of time developing him. 

              Guymer has played edge and middle this year in cup. His lateral movement is pretty good as he played centre in his early junior career. For player comparison I would say he is like Liam Martin when in the backrow. He will lead the line speed and try pull of hits and run decent lines. However I would say Martin is more powerful into contact which Guymer will improve in as he gets older. Guymer would also miss less tackles than Guymer.  When Guymer plays lock, a good player comparison is Jurbo. Can link the attack a bit but than he tackles everything, leads the line speed and cleans up lot of tackles that his teammates miss. The only way he debut this year is if the club rest the full team in the last round if we somehow are magically into the finals lol. I say this because Matto, Hopgood and Joe O will always be the preferred locks over him. Than Lane, Carty, Doorey, Tualagi, Matto, Moretti and even Keir are probably ahead of him at this stage in the backrow.

"That is one thing i noticed in his pressers that he reiterates how comfortable he is now with support from board and again sounds like he is promoting himself all the time with "See, they love me" "See i did this well"."
