Averillo has better footwork, a short kicking game and a better passing game. I don’t think Averillo is a half, but if someone as bad defensively as Schoupp can play centre, avo certainly could.
Yes, he runs hard and puts in effort, but that’s about all he has going for him. He has limited skill and next to no defensive ability.
People are well within their rights to disagree, but I look forward to the day Alamoti is ready to step up to first grade. When that day comes, there will be no place for Schoupp in our team.
