Plenty of chatter about how confident he is under the high ball but looks like the kid can get some serious air-time. With Frawley in the team I would love to see us use this more. It's really exciting because only weeks ago I had no idea where points would come from until Kas entered the game. Now Reynolds looks full of points, B-Moz creates things he also brings Grahams short passing into the game too.

His leap comes from him being a natural winger, 80% of winger now-a-days are Fullback/Centres cum wingers and that means they've got a step and speed but lack the jump and/or positioning.

Very impressive and I agree with Frawley's better kicking game he will be a really good attacking option.

The universe evening things up after having quite a few seasons with shorter wingers who regularly got out leaped.

Wait till Frawley starts getting his kicking on point and we have another decent winger in the air on the other side.

Montoya and Frawley have played in under 20s together so know each others games well.

I cant wait to see him get out in the open... guy can absolutely frigging fly when he winds up.

I mean he's not "top 3 nrl fastest", but he can really motor.

Having rewatched the game, after watching it at the stadium, this kid is the goods, was everywhere yesterday, a couple of errors, but certainly can't fault his enthusiasm. Looks to be in the mould of Toupou and jumps like a fkn kangaroo.

Ummmm Frawley was never in our under 20s.
He was the Raiders under 20s captain..

Do you mean NSW Cup? Frawley didn't play in our 20's team

Not really Montoya-related, but it seems as though Des highly rates Reimis Smith. So I guess we have our wingers set for the next 10 years

One thing that baffles me is when we had Curtis Rona we wouldn't dare to kick a ball any where near him. It's such a basic set play that if you get the depth of the kick right you basically guaranteed to score. It's so blatanly obvious statistic man.


DESIE WE LOVE YOU!!!
