Well he and Vagana were clearly a level above anyone else running around in the Black White and Blue last week.
And he was awesome in the trial at Ballina.

I know that's only two games but it's enough to encourage me

Well its going to be quite a shock to Jason Williams to find out he's white !

Ahh black as I suspected

I didnt want to say anything...I thought I must have been drunker than I thought so I'd better keep my mouth shut

Now I'm relieved!

I saw him walking through the mall without a shirt. Hard to tell what colour he is due to all the ink.

Good youth is required in any side, our props are aging, you can be excited too.
4 props required, it is good to have a young bull step up. We have plenty of experience, youthful exuberance will be good for this team.

Millers makes a fair point
I've been saying similar recently

The fact we've been looking to Hilder, Galloway and now Williams to be our stars shows that our bigger names and more experienced players arent performing at the level they should be

Particularly in the forwards: Stevens, Beattie, Bailey, Nutley

Stevens and Beattie are playing satisfactorily but they are a far cry from their awe-inspiring best. I want to see more from Nutley. Phil Bailey is just a cat, plain and simple.

What a nuffie.

Still, we do this at the Sharks though. We sign a neville nobody, then talk him up like he's a friggin' IMMORTAL.

Saleh, Seers...Hell, I even remember the club going NUTS over signing blokes like Alf Duncan!

Preston Campbell was a lower grader when the Sharks were in trouble a few years ago.
That time the Sharks were doing everything right but just lacked spark. Repetitive sets which never put the defence in 2 minds.
Preston came in & changed that almost single handedly.

Right now, the team has no penetration from the forwards & very average kicker. They are all running up & down on the spot.

I cannot wait to see what williams does after a Stevo run, or vice versa.
Also lomu who seems to go better after a few slaps around the head wake him up & he gets angry. then there is beats, Galloway.

1 guy can make all the difference sometimes.
I'm not pinning any Sharks Grand Finals on him, but from what I see, he is exactly what the Sharks need. Any team needs. He's Longy or Langy with an offload.

Alf Duncan could catch.
Alf Duncan could run.
Alf Duncun could kick.

BUT

Alf Duncan could do none of those well enough!!!
