Any chance he plays at 7

Yes. That seems obvious to me.
Just as Mitch Moses played 6 early in his career outside Luke Brooks.
It’s a relatively easy adjustment

Right foot kicker, play him on the opposite side to Burton who is a left foot. Sweet. Like many have said Melb have two running halves.

 

[Phalangist]

Josh was never an organising half, even during his junior years he was off the cuff full of energy kind of player, 14 would perfect for him !!!

you serious ?
He shouldn’t be anywhere near first grade

Both of the Melbourne halves are good ball players too. No reason why Burto and the new kid can't be the same for us with all their natural skills.

This kid is going to be a bonafide star, Gus wouldn’t sign a kid long term if he had any shred of doubt in his mind

Good going Kiwidog. Keep us updated on the Moses situation.

Seen more highlights of him and he was playing both sides of the ruck, ball skills already look better than Burton too. Noticed he also played lock lol.

The broncos deliberately put him at lock to try manufacture him

He’s a natural 6/7

Thought was good sign broncos signed for 3 years and wanted so much $ to release and Gus moves on 4 year deal!

Yeh saw the lock side. Decent ball skills, good cut out passes but no kicking game seen really.

He looks good, good d also
Problem is either burto or him will need to play a hynes type role

 

[QLDdogsfan]

Fair go Gus is honestly working magic all round We are on fucking fire boys!! Hope this kid turns into a star my father inlaw is a massive Broncos fan it would drive him nuts

Finally people recognise you have good info Uce....

 

[BulldogAndy]

good signature maybe 2 years will be in the side if not rajeeb will be back up player

Apparently he's got a solid kicking game. His defence looked quite good and he looks to have some size to him.

No 13 might be his way into the side at some point in the future. I note he was 13 for Queensland in the vid.

He looks to have all the skills for a quality ball playing lock forward in my eyes. His physicality is outstanding, with and without the ball.

I imagine he will be pretty solid size wise in a season or two.

 

[senshidog]

Interesting pickup, but can he lead a team around a field.

Mahoney helps a bit in that regard, but it's what Flanno lacked which hurt us last year.

We need a capable halves player who can steer the ship.
