I must admit, he looked great at times, but he was average for majority of the game. He wasn't supporting Hoppa when Reynolds was terrorising him for those floating bombs. He was turning his body trying to get it away to his winger quickly as if he was the centre which lead to him making a meal of two easy tries. It's only his second game and he can only improve, but calling him a young superstar on the rise is a bit much.
He's not being called a star but a rising star which I rekon is fair enough. He did a few things tonight that not many players are capable of doing. For me that's a rising star.
He has a very bright future at center and looked excellent yesterday with the ball in hand, but he also showed his poor positioning on the wing. Swap them BA.
"No we signed those players because the pathways stalled during Covid and we missed two years of graduates coming into the top 30. By 2024 they were coming through again, which is why our reserve grade side featured 20 players under the age of 21…"
"I don't remember the injury from but I do recall sterling , Kenny , Ella and Grothe spent half the season or more in England . Price and Cronin carried the team till they got back "

I'm probably the only person that thinks this but I prefer Taka than Hoppa as centre
Those were 2 quality tries for a bloke playing his 1st starting NRL game.
Impressive.
