Id take him if he went for cheap 100k? Brian Smith turned SKD from a fumbling fool to one of the leagues best centres. Talanoa has the gifts to be a good player, the fact that he took league up so late, and has no brain is his downfall.
Bit surprised by this move: http://www.hullblinds.co.uk/rugbyleaguetoday/michael-worrincy-seals-penrith-move/ Worrincy is a good athlete but skill set isnt the greatest and whenever I have seen him he makes a lot of errors. Tackling not the best and seems to drop too many balls. Would be surprised if made the Panthers first grade side. The NRL is a big step up for this guy.
SKD has had a great year under Smith. I'm a bit harsh on Talanoa, he does do a lot of good. Most of Issac's big darting runs comes off the back of Talanoa's runs and quick play the balls. Apparently he has the 2nd quickest play the ball in the NRL.
Seen Luke Burgess play a bit. His not a starter though and comes on from the bench but his not really made much impact. Not seen much of the others but from what I have read on fan forums people say there not really stand out prospects and there are better young players.
Thats a bit of a funny stat ie. quick play the ball but I have been assured thats a criteria coaches look at these days in the modern game. Its a good thing to look at as it allows the team to advance quick down the field. On a much more serious note its 6-6 in the 4 Nations final and Brett Morris has just setup another try from 3 feet out of play. WTF :twisted:
Well, Archer squared it up with the kiwi try off a forward pass. Marshall starting to really look dangerous, the aussies can't afford to give him any room to move.
Seriously who the **** is paying Archer, how the **** have our refs gotten so ****, terrible decisions both ways, giving me nightmares of the grandfinal.
Did the kiwis win? I bet sheens put the old farts back in the side...should have run with the same side as last week.....fire sheens he's got no idea
Fair play do you think Aussies were the better team? Kiwis dominated stats and came out with win :deal Aussies are losing grip as worlds best and next year Kiwis will win again. Yes it was a forward pass
Just a pity the referee's performance will be a major talking point. Well done to the kiwis though, good game. :good Benji is a superstar.
Archer is an idiot. Again his missed forward passes. The guy is a joke!! That last try was a joke. The ball was so far forward its impossible to miss something like that.. Whats the deal with Tait? Out for the season?
