Exactly true.Only people over hyping Woods are the clueless posters on here.
Gould and Ciraldo are not pumping up his tyres. They know he is work in progress and will take a year or two of development to determine if his potential translates to NRL ready.
Flegg and blood him later in the year in NSW cup would appear what they have mapped out for him this season.
Listen to Phil Gould talk about him when he was interviewed on the Levels Podcast with Willie Mason. He explains in detail about the clubs new philosophy with all kids coming through not just Woods.
He clearly says that they will not be rushing anybody into FG until completely ready.
Mason also said that one of the main reasons Woods is in the Top 30 is because he is still build like a kid. Needs to put on weight (muscle) to allow him to reach his potential and this way he trains with the FG squad to develop.
Also the argument in another thread about what to do with Sexton when and if Woods reaches him potential is ridiculous. One of Big Willies favorite saying id 'Iron sharpens Iron'. These 2 could potentially push each other to greater heights. Throw Tia into the mix and the competition for spots may create some determined and skilled players.
We can't keep them all, we just need them long enough to push each other to new heights.
