In 20 mins we have seen why the Warriors let Abbey go

[Iron Lion]

4 raiders trys run straight through him. Guy cant defend at all

 

[jamaman]

and what?

Funny, I didn't see RTS during those 20 minutes at all.

 

[Rich102]

Saw him a couple of weeks ago and thought the same thing.

 

[ozbash]

He's Brad the Bulldog now... hearts not in it.

Think people need to realize that he's still a kid and developing. Got the bones to be a great player. Bear in mind that he will be eligible for U20 NYC Grade for another 3 years after this season (even though theyre scrapping the comp)...

No he isnt.
He eligible for one more year.

He is soft - that is a given. He has been soft for some time.
But definately still just a kid.

However when your manager or parents put pressure on becoming a full-time player.
You get judged as a full-time player not a kid.

I think Hingano is the same age and he is playing NSW Cup. Handling it too.

 

[Rebel]

hingano looks good. Might be a back up tp lolohea next year

 

[Iron Lion]

Cant get over fast Hingano has grown physically. Warriors must have one hell of a dietitian. Warriors must seriously rate him to throw him in there this early. He looks to me to have the makings of another Jerome Ropati ball playing wise. Stays injury free and we could have a smart footballer there.

Thought he was a lot younger. Yep only one more year.

He's no softer than Sam Tomkins really. His parents didnt pressure him into being a fulltime player. That was his call alone after the Warriors put an offer in for him. He had a number of clubs looking to sign him up with the front runners being the Roosters. Its his dream to be play NRL so he wasnt going to say no.

Not bothered he's gone as we have RTS coming but still reckon Abbey will be a great player one day. Just needs to learn to put his body on the line for his team mates. Some veterans in the NRL still dont do it...
