Has Xerri lost his speed?

I feel like I have taken crazy pills because I just don’t know. He started the year with glimpses of good pace and in recent weeks he’s looked sluggish, but he made some good sprints today. He seems to need a good runup to get going.

Probably the bumps and bruises from being out of the game for 4 years. It’s a long season and he’ll be playing through plenty of knocks.

Think we’ll see the best from him next year
 
Its funny, because some say he needs a run up but he can also put it on pretty quickly too. Maybe it’s just maintaining it. As long as he can put in that short quick burst then fox should be able to finish it off.

Thought one his better games today for us. Only blemish was not passing to Tracey after his break.

He couldn't, pass would've been knocked down by I think Timoko. Fox should've kept pushing up on the outside instead of trying to do whatever the hell he was doing.
 
Xerri was fantastic today. Ran for 201m, regularly got on the outside of the defence and showed good judgement. JAC and Tracey weren’t in good positions when Xerri made that break (mainly through good Raiders positioning) so it was smart to hold on.

He’s lost some of his pace but he was so blistering previously that he can afford to have lost some, he’s still quick and what he’s lost in speed he’s made up for in muscle and bulk. I love him, has such a great humble attitude too.
 
He was too fast for the Foxx to catch up. Usually you would see the Foxx come flying on the outside.

I thought that was the case it was hard to see from across the field.
Fans yelling out he hogged but definitely didn’t.

Xerri even looked for him on the outside but Fox was no where to be found.

Fox might need some extra sprint training this week or pay more attention lol
