Thank goodness we hired BA over JT! He has a much better roster at his disposal and they play like they have no idea most of the time

Those that think our blokes give up, should look at that lot, they have very poor halves and not a lot of ticker

Yep. Have said it before and was saying it again during the game today. He's awesome. I know people love RTS and Tedesco but if I could have any fullback at Parra I'd have Holmes.

That woods is a plodder of the highest order, walks up to the line and is a pillow in defence.

Probably not as good. He's got some skills but wouldn't put him anywhere near Hayne at the same age. Holmes is faster than Hayne at that age but Hayne was better defensively and was the intercept king at 19/20.

Didnt say he was as good but he reminds me a little of a young Hayne. Great to watch as well.

I agree.

Hopefully French makes it.

Yea i was shocked at his size and thought he looked very small.

He's pretty tall at 190cm but is only playing at around 103-105kg. Not a bad weight. With the way our forwards play that body shape suits us perfectly. Could still put on a few kgs and play around the 107-110kg range.
