:lol::lol:mr_sharks said:Beau Scott is like Ryan Attwood - a few certain people see potential in him past the bad boy image and costly mistakes. Sandy Cohen showed faith in Ryan by putting him up in his pool house after being sent to jail much to the dismay of his wife, and Stuart Raper has showed faith in Beau by putting him in firsts much to the dismay of many of the forumers.
The question is will Beau repay the faith shown in him like Ryan has? Ryan is now off to college, but will Beau graduate after this test???

That is gold. Raper is Sandy Cohen :lol:

Give him time. He still a rookie. Only played, what 20 first grade games or something.
What about focusing on his strengths. Strong runner, good leg drive, makes breaks, carries defenders and good defensive technique.
I know he is frustrating and can do some dumb things but they will go in time. I am convinced he will be a quality centre. In the mean time though, I agree he should be on the wing.
Special K said:Worst player to ever wear a cronulla jersey. possibly the ugliest to. Every time he makes a break he f**ks it up - EVERY TIME! He has good leg drive and can tackle just has problems reading the play but he is spanner. He needs to be a winger but to learn the ropes in grade because he is costly at centre.
He has a upside yeah but he just has nothing upstairs. You can't put a footballers brain in there. That said I'd love to be proven wrong as you can see he has something but I figure if we are going to have a project centre then we could have a better project to gift games to.
Special K said:I was against Kearney but never thought he'd make it into first grade so I doubt I ever went that in depth. Ugly but actually sounds similair - its a colt thing. they all are!
Beau has a upside but we need strike not projects right now.
Very well said, Sam.samshark said:I would have thought that Beau is the perfect example of a 'strike' player. Its not his strength, running game or ability to score tries that lets him down, its his hands and decision making at times.
Would be a big loss IMO if he left. We may fluke Webster but who will play the other centre. At the moment for next year we have nobody signed.
