Besides, he’s already said he had / has no desire to follow in his uncle’s footsteps. But we shouldn’t take it for granted - we need to work hard to ensure our players feel like our club is their home and family and that they are part of the Canterbury-Bankstown community and can feel at ease here inside and outside of football.
Yeah me too. The footage i just watched he leaked 12 points then only kicked a field goal. That footage showed no decent highlights of his skills. I like him and hope he turns out great. Surely he had better highlights than 2 bad defensive reads and a pot shot at field goal. Or where fucked.
That was a tough game for any rookie
And actually having a decent skills coach in Steve James , with Steve Georgallis being promoted to Asst Coach with the NRL side and having Shifty look in at training passing on his knowledge to our halves and hookers, I would say there will be a lot more points in our team for this up and coming 2019 season. I truly believe that we will surprise a lot of teams this year.
Time will tell. I don’t have concerns because I’m not expecting him to turn out a superstar; he doesn’t have that blinding talent or wizardry that some halves possess. Chances are he can be a solid and consistent first grader whose competitiveness will keep us in games and win us some we otherwise mightn’t. Being so young, smart and composed however, there is potential he can develop into one of the best game managers around - which Cronk has proven is as important as anything - and with the right coaching he can learn how to pick defences apart in a Melbourne-esque way. I’d take that.
Lewis has the temperament but he's defenitely lacking in terms of pure creative skill and needs plenty of work there.
I’m hoping he grows into it. I really like the kid. I just know teams will be gunning for him this season.
I will be concerned if he can't develop some sort of running game at 6. He is a good distributor of the ball but he also needs to take the opportunity to run when he can.
Hannant was a money hungry Mormon with a weird number of kids.
Did you know he played for Roosters in 2005 then he went to Brisbane... Didn't he leave because he was home sick?
Hopefully he can incorporate into his game a Thurston show and go... Mint.
Isn’t the point that that’s what they all say? What’s the underlying reason? Hannant’s constant club-swapping merely reveals what he was always about. It has nothing to do with “homesickness”.
Anything to make themselves look honourable...
