Will put pressure on Cook for Blues jersey in coming years
A couple of years down the track, if he keeps progressing the way he has...definitely. That is more believable to me, than him being the future Sharks captain.

Impregnated one of the female cardboard cut outs with just his steely stare

finally a 40/20! yeeeeeeeeeeeesssssssssssssssssssssss

his kicking has improved a million times over in the last 2 weeks

now reliable for a correctly weighted grubber into the in goal and his running game gets better all the time, looks more and more dangerous. developing at a rapid pace

I thought that was a beautiful kick though. At the very least you get a drop out. Woods isn’t a speedster but he wasn’t far off being there first either

You wanna talk about elite players... **** me this kid is actually insane.

He has got it all and I cannot believe he is playing for us.

Just watch the way he distributes the ball off the ground, fizzing, onto the chest or out in front to run onto. As a former hooker it is just so incredible that he can do this consistently for 80 minutes to perfection.

Nothing sexier in league than a good pass

yeah true he has got the skills and everything going for him;

long range kicking; little touches into the in goal. backing up off SJ to score. in recent game

he is developing; and can be anything long term

game against manly he was slightly slow with his passes out of dummy, but I was comparing that with Damien cook and Blayke previous weeks of service.

however if this kids develops to another attacking presence in our line up, that can only be a positive

Another very good game. I'm enjoying him getting more involved and not being over called by more senior players.

First full season too (and heavily interrupted). Think he only played one full game last season?
Looks like he's been at this level for years already

Bag of tricks coming along nicely too, 4 forced drop outs in 8 games this season and two try assists

Don't think he even played that. He covered for Jayden who got knocked out in Rd2 against the Titans for 60 mins but otherwise I think he only got 15-20 min stints all year. Think it equated to about 4 first grade games.

Round 14 he played 80 v the Raiders
and was our top tackler with 45 made 1 miss

Can't believe snowman didn't think he'd be able to play 80. What a knob.

I was concerned he may start to burn out a bit if faced with 24 games in (I think) 25 weeks plus potentially finals where he was required to be an 80 minute player each week. I never doubted he could do consistent 80 minute efforts.
Between COVID and some games from Tracey he will no longer have to do that workload anyway... but he did come off with 2 minutes to go against the Sea Eagles with a game high 43 tackles already under his belt.
Seemed to comfortably play 80 the week before and then this weekend just gone v Titans (topping our tackle count in both games)
