Maybe some just had really low expectations. Imo he is playing exactly as advertised. Does his job for 30-40 minutes, and never for more than about 25 minutes straight. Has a balanced game with a good mix of attacking involvement and defensive work rate.I think I did say he might surprise all and I think he has.
Exactly what he did for Eels, which is obviously what Fitz wanted him to do. Probably improved even.Maybe some just had really low expectations. Imo he is playing exactly as advertised.

I reckon people just notice him more when he starts.Exactly what he did for Eels, which is obviously what Fitz wanted him to do. Probably improved even.
Remember he is 3 years younger than Royce, 3.5 years younger than Rudolf, 4.5 younger than BHU.
Still plenty of upside in him.
Just not much of a highlight reel guy (yet)
Given he isn't much of a highlights reel guy he's easy to wish we had someone better than when things aren't going well for the team too.I reckon people just notice him more when he starts.
Very happy with the signing.
Like more than 1 player he has had a couple try line lapses but that's really the only thing that has stood out as an actual issue.I wasn't expecting that much from this signing but what a reliable consistent player he is!
Doesn't make mistakes and has his head on - for example you see most weeks him looking to pop an offload but with hands around him and the ball he decides better of it, secures the ball and takes the tackle, plays it safe nothing silly or low %. Has a good ptb as well.
He just isn't a player you have to worry about being a problem for us, does his job and doesn't put his own team under pressure.
But he is capable of some really strong carries up field on occasion as well
Happy to have him in the 17

Certainly can notice the prop's that are not there (Toby & BHU) & certainly notice that we are missing Tolman & a bloke called Fifita .He’s a prop who you don’t notice. He’s 100% doing his job
Not really missing Fifita mateCertainly can notice the prop's that are not there (Toby & BHU) & certainly notice that we are missing Tolman & a bloke called Fifita .
