Have previously raved about this guy. How good is he, great skills, fast & similar build to Konrad Hurrell...definitely worth a effort to try to sign. Any thoughts?

The Warriors will keep him. Plus to bring him over now he would be too much under the cap and he mightn't work out in first grade. I don't think we want anymore 20 year old outside backs anyway.
Glenn, you are being too sensible for the Eels brains trust to be interested. If he had bung shoulders, or could not take a ball, or would not tackle they would be interested! And when someone says: "we--and I love the royal we .!!--don`t want any more 20 year old outside backs anyway." you know that you are are right on the money.

Well we don't. We have a bunch of outside backs with no NRL experience. Why would we want another one?

He'd cost too much to bring over anyway. The Warriors will upgrade him for another 2 years where he'll probably get $150-200k over those years. For us to get him we'd be looking at a 3 year deal worth about $700k or so thousand. $150k the first year, $250K 2nd year, and then 300k in the third year. And he mightn't even play first grade. Buying the best 20's players from different clubs is not a wise investment.
You buy a young player between 15-18 and then in first grade you generally wait until they're 24 or 25. They're the best investments to make imo.

Go back and have a good look at TDS's service it's the worst part of his game the fact…"
"That pass is actually an example of good dummy half play. That close to the line you're not going to beat the defenders with a pass straight off the ground. His step back and dummy holds up the A and B defenders which sees the outside men come up…"
"Pop, next time when Moses is out, the next man up unquestionally, should be Apa Twidle. This guy is a playmaker and leader, and he is ready.
And so I don't want to lose him, as believe me he's getting noticed by everyone looking for young talent.
