Had Paulo and RCG on with him so it would be hard to notice, but he was okay.

Doubt he makes our 17 next year at the start. Injuries will give him his chance IMO.

ATM you'd be hard pressed to leave him off the bench!

8. Dale Finucane
9. Blayke Brailey
10. Toby Rudolf
11. Siosifa Talakai
12. Teig Wilton
13. Cameron McInnes

Bench???

Injury Reserves: Oregon Kaufusi

All off contract currently...
16. Briton Nikora (2022)
17. Braden Hamlin-Uele (2022)
18. Royce Hunt (2022)
19. Franklin Pele (2022)
20. Wade Graham (2022)
21. Andrew Fifita (2022)
22. Jack Williams (2022)

Based on current roster you may be right but we probably only re-sign half those guys which gets him pretty close to a bench jersey!

I guess you've got Hazleton and Colquhoun to contend with though, both of them look like they could be sniffing around for top 30 spots assuming we let a few of those guys slip and maybe get priced out of keeping all of the ones we want.

Don’t have much confidence this bloke is gonna really add a great deal to our team for next year.

Same
Just looks like a big lumbering body with bo real leg speed or tackle busting ability.
Hardly the dynamic impact forward we lack.

In your head, rent free
Just don’t think his ceiling is that high that’s all.
he is a better option than tolman and fifita

the problem is that toby and dale dont make 150m

we need 2 massive meter eaters in the team, bhu can but is inconsistent

just 2 massive units than can bend the line and make meters weekly

You’re not the only one mate. Our forwards are soft imo. Need some mongrel in our pack.

I know they lost pretty convincingly but this guy had a strong game for them on the weekend.

41 minutes
167m (second most of the team)
55 PCM
24 Tackles with 2 misses. 92% efficiency

For the season
Averaging 97m per game and 92.4% tackle efficiency and he's probably only getting 35mins on average per game.

Going to be very good for us next year. Really going to notice that impact off the bench.

Was hopeful that Hunt would step up after BHU got injured & grab his chance to be the big metre eater this season but been disappointed so far .

He's only averaging 27.5 mins so can be hard to make too much of a lasting impression and impact in that amount of time I suppose.

Not sure where he fits in once BHU and Williams are both fit. Same goes with Tolman and Fifita.

I dont think we've had all our forwards to chose from at all this season so nice problem to have.

I’ll go as far as saying he will be our best middle next year.
Has been a consistent improver the past few years, get him around Finucane & McInnes at training and watch him become a rep footballer and being talked about as the best signing in 2023.
