    Played with then against Davis growing up he's my age. Deahset. Turnstile in defence like worse than Mal and they're the same build. I know he's great on the attacking side and he's always had a superb kicking game and great footwork but yeah now I think about it properly he's better regardless than Hoffman and Nikorima
    Cullen and Co.

    Thing is that Nikorima, Cullen and Co haven't even been given a shot.

    In before Lol@nines; I felt Nikorima showed in the 9's that he could at least hang at NRL level. He'd certainly be a million times better than Hoffman.

    Itbt; I'd take anyone over Hoffman at this stage. Even Hodges, Glenn, Gillett or Reed or some shit.

    Fuck Hook is a deadshit...

    I think Duncan Paia'aua might be next in line...well next in line after Hoffman, Hodges, Barba, Gillett and even Griffin himself. He's even younger than Kodi Nikorima, but was the only half promoted to QLD Cup this year for a while and is supposedly a genuine ball player rather than just a ball runner.

    Milford signed on for next year 100%. Still much prefer to sign K and have him in the centres or even go back to the days of having a ball playing lock.

    Same side, except Kennedy gets dropped for Hannant, Wallace starts.

    I can kinda understand it. With McGuire/Wallace coming on, I'd like to have a decent prop coming on so we have something to offer.

    Yeah, it kinda does make sense. Wallace has been fairly impressive this year too.

    Still probs the worst starting prop we've rolled with outside of an origin week...

    Hopefully Hannant pulls his finger out and has a blinder; and the demotion has the same effect on Kennedy for the next game. If those 2 start playing to potential; we'll be pretty difficult to beat in the middle.

    Signed Darren Nicholls from some NSW Cup side. Never heard of him, but he can't be worse than Hoffman?

    I'd never heard of him either. Did some research.

    He played for the Tigers U20s, captaining them in their GF loss to Storm in 2009.

    NFI what he did in 2010, however in 2011 he played for the French side Toulouse Olympique in the RFL Championship; which is one tier below ESL.

    Apparently they were on the verge of being accepted into the ESL but it never happened; so it seems he came back here and appears to have played for North Sydney and Wyong Roos in NSW Cup since then.

    There is this on youtube. Cunt has his email address in the info :lol:

    Though it wont give us much idea how he would go in the NRL he does look decent, I bet he'd be better than Hoffman anyway.

    He was also named at 6 and captain of the 2013 NSW Cup TOTY.

    Only watched the first 1.4 minutes but he defs seems like a ball runner first and foremost. Hadn't passed the ball yet, cbf watching highlights of a cunt just running it, you could nearly make a similar video of Hoffman.

    Haha yeh, Josh Hoffman would probably look like Greg Inglis at that grade.

    Tbf good passing games never make the highlight footage.

    He's not a bad player. Good passing game but tends to try a bit too much.

    Hope he gets a crack. Always intrigued by blokes who've come through the system a bit differently like this.

    Has way more behind him than a bloke out of NYC.

    Yeah he just has shithouse match awareness. Skillful player but doesn't know when to chance his arm and when to play conservatively. Was the case when he was in the 20s anyway; might've matured by now.

    I'd still take that over Hoffman. Hoffman has no match or playmaking awareness in general tbph.

    Hunt would have the boss-call; so it would reduce the opportunities of him taking the wrong option. And simply having an actual half on board will assist Hunt to no end as he would have more time to organise/plan his attack rather than playing adlib as he is forced to frequently because we simply don't have any other option than to hand him the pill.
