  • He’s not a hooker, not in any way, shape or form...
  • he's a backrower. 

    • Mate are you blind, he's not big enough for backrower

      • That's his position, whether or not hes too small to play 1st grade there we'll probably never know if BA wants to send him on for 10 minutes as hooker. Seriously who did BA have playing their preferred position that game?

  • He’s not. 

    Another master plan by ba to throw a debutant into a role he doesn’t play to shatter his confidence. 

  • The kid never had a chance though, he should’ve been on earlier as part of a normal forward rotation.
  • He looks way to tall just looks out of place. Reed was one of our best not sure what he’s thinking taking him of
    • Way too tall? we much be watching a different guy.

    • He's the same height as King, has played a fair amount of hooker with Weny at in Flegg. Mahoney is the primary 9 but slowed in the second half, choice between having King or Stone to be on the bench, BA decided on blooding another rookie along with Kafusi, that is a good call as I cannot see King being worth any further contracts.

      Stone is raw and young, same as Kafusi they needed to be given a taste of NRL games and a VG team in the Storm is a real test for them both. Overall 4 rookies in the team tonight, and yes I see Mahoney and Marata as basically rookies as well, but also being young are players of the future.

      As for Mahoney coming off he would have known he would be playing less than 80minutes as he went through the same thing as Stone did with his first couple of matches especially the first one.

      A coach cannot win with these calls to blood new players. Either too soon or not soon enough.

  • Hes a backrower in the beau scott mould
