The making of a player

Now I've been against Russell playing first grade, his had moments, BUT that game against the Broncos was a 5 star performance especially marking up against Stagg. That try he scored may well have be a fluke but still needed to execute it, his defence all game and his running mtrs were outstanding. Maybe he did need 50/60 first grade games as some do to realise they belong in the top grade. Whatever happens his confidence will be sky high, and I for one am happy and cheering for him.

          • It's in my first post here what I believe Russell ultimately is.

  • Seems like he has a good combination with ado carr to, just needs to work on the passing but he's improving. I'm not sure if Bailey gets a spot in the 17 anymore 

  • Hold your breath peoples opinions change in a hot minute around here.

    As soon as he makes a mistake of has a poor week he'll get thrown under the bus.

  • With Dylan now being permanently benched, every player has either been moved on, put in reserve grade or if they're still in first grade they've undergone continuous improvement. This is across the board including Sean. I think many have underestimated Ryles ability to improve players individually and as part of the collective 

  • Cops a lot of hate for no reason, the kids solid. He's pretty quick and defensively extremely solid, gave it to Staggs the whole game. 

    Pretty sure in the pre-season challenge he ran down Xavier Savage who's considered one of the quickest in the league. 

  • may well have be a fluke but still needed to execute it, It was no fluke...in a game of pool,if your shot bounces off the cushion and sinks centre pocket, it's a fluke. If you tried for a double you pulled it off....Russell had the temerity to try it and pulled it off

    Now for the second act....

  • Yawn.
