cmon zane you are smarter than that, you dont get lucky, you make your own luck by having the football intelligence to put yourself in the right positions to make these plays. He reads the game, he reads the pass.
he is a winner and for someone to score a try in 2 GF now a WC final is unbelievable, you need to give some credit.
the kid is a freak and his goal kicking is extreme also
Crighton really brainwashed TK. Sad times :confused:

Can confirm although just a rumour but Laurie is all but on the outer at the Tigers and wants out. We were previously linked to him, Gus shut it down but as we know Gus is also a liar. Keep a watch out for this. We definitely are hitting targets for FB. Crighton, Herbie, Doeuihi, Laurie. Either one of these could very likely be signed very soon.
Eew, no thanks, Laurie is worse than what we already have.

100% wouldn’t get rid of avo for anyone other than Trell teddy paps turbo etc
Yes we need to be chasing genuine quality and not looking at investing in sideway moves or making stupid gambles like Crichton. The likes of Laurie, JC etc have years of experience @ fullback on Jake yet they're no more established than him at this point. People also forget he's still only 22 and pretty much hasn't played fullback other than for a short spell in i think HM's. There's so much potential improvement in him this year and we would be stupid to throw that away because we had to sign Laurie LOL.

Has the speed and play making abilities just needs to work on positioning and he needs to not be scared of contact or contesting attacking kicks. He’s a good kid and he should come good with experience.

Blokes had more time in first grade than any of them and can’t lock down a spot. I’d say mbye 2.0 but mbye even made origin. Averilo never will.

Yeah but they’ve played him at 14, 4, 5, 6, 7 and now 1
Let the kid settle in a position before we judge him. He has a lot of potential we just have to wait and see if he can reach it

That's a terrible argument and has been picked to death a million times yet you guys still bring it up. Btw he's played like 10 games more than Laurie lol.

Not as terrible as having a fullback who is afraid of a shit bomb.
