I've been saying for ages that he should be on the edgeYes, I said so when we signed him. It only took an entire season for Baz to okay him there and for the rest of TK to cop on.

I'd suggest that Baz felt limited in terms of props this season. At the start of the season he had Ava (train and trial, older and overweight, working his way back), Napa (poor form for yonks), Thomo (suspended first 4 rounds), Atoni & Ogden (neither had yet proven they are dependable in the starting team). So he penned Hetho in as one of his 4 props (when not suspended). Hetho has started most of the games he has played, usually next to either Napa or Thommo, partly because the rest of the options just didn't look up to scratch.Yes, I said so when we signed him.

100% agree, only question is why did it take Baz until the last round of the season to try it???Edge back rower for Hethrington. So much better than as a prop.
Might help him to control his temper and allow his athletic attributes to shine through.
Mate I was one of the first, and people where saying get of the piss lolA few of us have been suggesting this since we signed him considering his pace, lack of effectiveness as a prop and that his best form with the Warriors last year was also when he played on an edge.
Hopefully Baz persists with it going into next season because he looks a lot better in space.
That pack and bench would compete with most if Hetherington finds his potential on the edge. Patolo starting to look pretty good too - hope he gets a good off season and improves more.8. Vaughn

During the match when Hethrington was making line breaks I was thinking ‘wonder what Marley is saying right now’Yes, I said so when we signed him. It only took an entire season for Baz to okay him there and for the rest of TK to cop on.
Some weeks ago a report mentioned how fast Hetherington was I thought it would be good to give him a shot in the second-row, I mentioned it to some friends they laughed the idea off...Heck Gus thinks so too !Gus feels the same.

Still don’t think he’s a half but he’s done a solid job filling in there. You could be right.Avo & Burto the halves combo mark my words.
