Payne is solid enough at lower levels but he doesn’t have a future in first grade.Field had an opportunity to show his wares in the halves on Saturday and was comprehensively outplayed by Jack Payne.
Herbert was very good at fullback as well and while his selection there was a surprise, he looked very comfortable there, which for him is no surprise.
FWIW, I really rate both Herbert and Payne...
I’m also a big fan of Herbert. Very skilful young player with rear leadership attributes to boot.
