I don't think he believes this. He has been critical of him all year for it, so I'd doubt that he stopped noticing.I agree, I don't see how we've grown up. If he honestly believes that, not sure where we go from here.
Nicho overplaying his hand is a massive issue for mine. We are terrible in tight games against half decent opposition, we have no idea how to close a game out.
I love Nicho but if the coach believes he isn't overplaying his hand, nothing will change.
I know he's only been playing HB at NRL level for two years but the fact is he's on huge coin. If the mindset doesn't change, we're in trouble.
Nicho feels very much like Mitch Moses from 3-4 years ago. Capable of brilliance but often erratic and unable to go for the percentage plays over the big ones. He needs to chill a bit, but he also needs someone next to him who will be another dominant voice and overcall him when it's on. Hopefully Tricky can deliver this next year.
I'd like to see us defend consistently, cut the **** errors and show some resilience before I'd consider saying we've grown up.
