Will Penisni development???

Penisni has been phoning it in for ages - don't know if it's sooking for BA or what.

Pity the merkin has a PO he can trigger regardless of form or current value, and likely knows how to use it....

He had so much potential. Time turn him into hard running nugget 2nd rower or drop him to reserves. He can’t freaking pass the ball, and has too many errors in his game. What a let down. Had high hopes for him.

I agree to an extent with the edge backrower, but I think his defence is average at best. I would be shopping him right now. Samrani is playing significantly better

Tonight we saw class in Herbie and we saw the standard we see in Penisini.

Will doesn't have enough speed to go around his man. And this is every week

His strength is overrated he very rarely wins a 1 on 1 in attack.

And his passing game is horrid.

Ill throw in his average handling.

Defence isn't elite either

So after 88 FG games of development we have a player that's still pretty average chewing up elite centre $$$ on the cap.
Another Rouse Hill success story.

Could Penisini play wing? Just get him to make the tough carries out of our end Brian To'o style (obviously doesn't do it as well as him)

I was just reading in another forum that Reuben Garrick is off contract, not sure of he's gettable but I like him, he'd be a decent reaplcement

Could have changed everyone's mind if he passed to Samrani on the wing tonight.
He can't though.

Like he has no sleight of hand or quick hands to be able to do that.

Even when he does pass it looks uncoordinated.

Players either have it or they don't.

Penisini doesn't.

I can't believe i read a few weeks ago we were looking at extending him.

Based on what form

I have never posted in this thread to my knowledge, but I yelled at him to pass the f**king ball all last night.

I am so over how he does the post contact leg drive (good) but then looks to go to ground when his arms are free and support is about (bad).

You need to look back through this thread and identify the posts where you have deep throated the ‘next Michael Jennings’. It’s ok to change your mind but at least acknowledge that you were wrong.

When he first came into the team I recall him setting up his winger. I don't know what happened since but regressed is the best word to describe him.

Another example of our the player option will screw us. I am off him now, we should be telling him now he can take his option but will be playing reserve grade. Maybe then his manager will look at other options to prolong his career.

OK I just looked and you totally made that up. The only MJ reference I made was IF he can be a MJ style of player then it was fine by me.
