Only 16 so nothing to crow about yet. Hopefully he develops well and we retain him.

Double post.

Yeah, if he is smashing it at 16 when he is 120kg or more, I'd say he would really struggle the second he steps into the top grade and starts mixing it with men as big as he is.

Hey, I may be wrong, but it's easy to look dominant when all the other 16 year old aren't massive like you.

Boom teenage forwards are pretty rare. For every Taumololo you get dozens of 'Monster Teenagers' who don't make it. Even the ones that do make it sometimes take years. Taumololo took a few years, So did Sam. Like senses said, usually these giant dominate in junior football and find it easy, but when they start coming up against more people their size or guys that in reserve and first grade who are mentally and physically tough they can't make the step.up

Looks like a massive unit

Apparently Bennett got to him and he's off to the Broncos.

I'm not at all surprised--he probably didn't want to evolve into a head down/tail-up battering ram under Madge's influence!!

Very hard to say no to Bennett.

Met him once at a footy camp when I was 14. Very well spoken and a straight shooter. We did exactly as we were told. No ifs ands or buts.
