Gus nailed it today when he said the media talked up these young kids as superstars when in reality they have barley taken their first steps in NRL. Funny as then Johns started talking up the winger and Gus jumped in with "yes just like that" lol.
Klemmer looks a good big young prop but lets discuss in three years if he is anything special. At the moment he looks the goods but as has been said so did Webb, Taylor, Williams and numerous other forwards for one or two years.
This. This is pretty much my entire point. Klemmer is absolutely nothing yet, he
might be, but he just as easily (and statistically more likely) wont be. Webb had
one outstanding year for the Cows and a memorable moment or two in the Origin arena but then turned into an absolute potato. Tony Williams looked like he'd be absolutely unstoppable, he showed us he was big/fast/skillful but then jointed Webb on the scrap heap just as quickly (faster really). Dave Taylor has more skill than Williams and could have been anything, he achieved far more than Klemmer has at the same stage of their careers and is likely to end up in England once his contract is up, if not before because nobody wants the lazy genius anymore. Andrew Fafita is a better player than all of these aforementioned players, yet seems to already be on the outer in the Origin arena after what? 3 or 4 games?
I dont see anything in Klemmer that says he'll be any better than these players mentioned above, in fact most of them were far more promising prospects at one point than he is right now.
