He always gets bagged out as if he’s a marquee player, he’s a fringe first grader who makes the odd error or bad read but overall runs the ball hard and does his job when on the field not sure what all the hate is about

We got our hands on the wrong Chrighton.. Penrith knew it all along
Was pretty obviously, Christian is a 5 ft nothing garden gnome who tries hard and Stephen is a 6'4 Israel Folau clone

The thing that got me was before the game as Napa was continually looking over at his 'old mates' during a huddle when all were focusing and revving each other up but he was winking to his mates at the other end of the field probably wishing he was still there...then as usual did bugger all
It’s like trading a Mack truck for a Daihatsu charade. Guy is softer then custard.

Did you watch Stephen on the weekend? Got absolutely toweled up by Waqa Blake, 3 errors in 5 mins which cost Panthers the game.

Not saying he is shit, he actually looks really elusive and balanced on his feet, just that there’s always errors in people’s games you can pick apart...

I don’t think Christian is as bad as people make out, his hands do let him down at times, but he has a strong carry, same can’t be said for Meaney.

Don’t know, but to be fair he wasn’t our worst last night. I agree he’s not FG, but there were worse performances than his.

Dallin’s errors were costly, Lewis still plays like U10s running out of the line to tackle someone with no regard for the defensive mess he leaves behind, Napa was a cat...
“Napa was a cat...”
Haven’t stopped giggling since I read this.
Pretty apt description of that flog. Well done.

There were some on here singing his praises earlier this season.

Wonder what happened there.....

Played ok but another one of those in the weird player basket. Looks a bit short for a winger post 2005.

Stephen is 19 and was up against Waqa Blake who had the game of his life.

In a gun side he is a bench rotation forward at best. I get the feeling that Thompson will own Nappa and he will either lift a couple of gears and give us some value, or sulk like a bitch.

Yeah, I know that, the point that I made is that he’s young and has errors in his game, said the same about Averillo.

Christian also has errors but not as bad as people make out...

Lafai was arrested for domestic violence during corona virus lockdown.

Not sure but imo he was a very dubious signing to start with! Very desperate signing and his first grade selection since being here is very telling.

Chricton isnt half bad. He runs hard and always tries to get a quick play the ball. Runs with intent.
