That's a fair point actually. He does play in 2 great sides. However his kick returning ability is something that I think we're severely lacking in our squad.
As for centres that could feed him I think that's up to the pre season to decide. I very much think both the centre spots are up for grabs. At this stage I would put Fuimaono and Hunt there. They are both very solid defensively and can easily build on their ball playing skills. Fuimaono did a great job at centre in his last 7 or so games.
I think Gagai will definitely be in the centres round 1 but whether or not that's best for the team is debatable. He has been known to be a pretty average defender at centre. If you haven't watched much of him I suggest you watch some highlights of knights games. Ultimately I'm happy to have him at any position in the backline as he is a massive upgrade on our current stock. I just feel as if wing is best to suit his attacking prowess whilst in a way covering his defensive flaws.
I have watched Gagai in the Knight's games and he looks less effective because they are an ordinary side, unlike the Maroons & Roos. It conjures the old saying, "you can't soar like an eagle if you fly with turkeys".
Fuimaono is solid but looks a backrower to me. Hunt is just ordinary and his defence is also ordinary, like most of our centres, sadly.
Gagai simply has to be one centre, but where do we find another decent one, that is the question. It's looking like Jennings and maybe he might make it down the track, but we really are one decent centre short.
Knights fan having a cry.
