How does a player like French rise from being a good rookie to a SOO player ?

Will his height and frame limit his potential ?

Greg Inglis 1.95m

Latrell Mitchell 1.93m

Bevan French 1.81m

Nathan Merritt 1.81m

Jarryd Hayne 1.88m

Valentine Holmes 1.85m

Jack Bird 1.83m

Matt Moylan 1.85m

Billy Slater 1.78m

Cameron Munster 1.85M

Ben Barba 1.76m

French needs to be our fullback next year. I suspect however that he will stay on the wing if Hayne returns to Parra.

There's no way that we're going to be able to have Foran, Norman and The Plane in the same team. Stick The Plane in the 6.

that would be on the proviso that Foz stays...

It is only a 50% chance he will stay.

I agree. We can't afford all 3. MJC thinks otherwise and he has better contacts than most of us.

Or at French or Japanese rugby...

He isn't going to France. At least that's what my bullshit artist friends have told me.

This is an example of you rebuking everything I write just because I posted it. Just as personal as me calling you a halfwit which I will now update to the more vernacular and crude term of f**kwit.

When you reply to a post of mine, do you not expect me to answer you?

Call me all the names you want.

Maybe when Phanton/Bart and Suity or Fanbase and Pou have finished you 2 can grab the room key...

It's common for rookies to be "rested" in lower grades from time to time from the rigours of NRL. Don't be hating on BA if he feels that his mind and body needs to be rested.

It would be kind of fun to watch French in the under 20s now.
I think the key to his development is that we remain a strong side. I know that sounds basic but so many talented players fail to develop because they are surrounded by failure.

Surely they won't let us have Hayne and Foran on the books at once.

And imo it wouldn't be worth moving other players on, just to squeeze Hayne back in after two years of not playing or training for league.
