Brought him in for JFH and he doesn't look to be as active in defense and doesn't even look as potent on offense either.

Plays his role well but fantasy-wise it’s not great. Also he’s got a super strong pack around him now. In the past it would be two hitup sets, offloads and tackle everything. Now it’s just stay in your lane, run a strong line, be there to support defenders.

Yeah, Katoa should keeo his spot until Dugan back. Edrick has actually been playing really well though - him and Holmes will be first choice wingers.

He played wide today, he is a middle player so more chance at getting the ball and making tackles like Murray.

Sam usually starts middle and shifts wide when they sub Murray

40 points ain't bad, just expecting more

Yeah I’m more saying a 40-50 score will be his standard rather than the 55-75 of old.

Freddy just said looking at Cordner playing 80. Friz can shift to the middle. Crichton right edge play only. Radley could be a good buy in.

i agree, but he is still a loose unit with his missed tackles and penalties. and now you can add sitting on opponents heads to the long list of shit he has no control over.

he goes awesome when he's disciplined

Bit higher I would go mate around 45-55. He still looks dangerous carrying the ball

he made the 2nd most metres in first half then didn't see the ball for 20 minutes, that will be more consistent when he is back in the middle and all he needs is a bust or 2 to start elevating again

I thought he was lucky when he smashed Edrick, I was holding my breath on that hit

Flogged.

Should be making some great inroad with that score and those guys to come mate
