Myth, seriously, Webber drives for a good team now and is still sh*t, he was suppose to have had talent but needed a good car and he'd realise his potential, like Webber, all i heard on this forum was he just needed Tahu, his match fitness, the wind strength, a good breakfast, a change of duds etc and he would be the second comming of Gasnier, Cronin, Ella....however nothing more then a Steve Mavin, Robert Muchmore....or even worse, Matt Toshak.

Seriously what a myth, and after 4 years people some on here still reckon he should be re-signed lol, when people said he would come good once playing outside Tahu, that said it all to me - he needs players to make him look good, i reckon you could put Sharon Strzelecki or even Rose Hancock and get more pentration out there.

One of the few players who looks to break the line or pop a ball when we play one out crap. Should def be in our long term plans. Stepped up in big games last year too.

Yes but his stats over 4 years would be average at best with his salary way above average.

true, we paid overs for him

I'd like to keep him as he has already said he is willing to take a pay cut

his stats this year are much better than the last few years, this years his stats are much better than Reddy's who only averages 70 metres per game has more errors and less tackle breaks

why would you pick or drop some one on last years form or the year before that ? (unless you're an Aussie cricket selector)

On the other hand Reddy plugs the holes in the line and has saved countless tries. INU?'s efforts in defence are lazy as are his kick returns and how he canters when in the clear instead pinning his ears back.

Both first half tries by the bunnies were off lazy reads by INU? *.

* INU?, formerly known as INU!

INU has outplayed Reddy so far this year, but he was average on Sunday some of those reads in defence we're don't right shocking. If he's willing to take a decent paycut i'd like to see him stay.

some odd stats there too, Reddy has made more tackles than Inu but also missed more tackles

all in all I agree Reddy is a better defender but I recall last year Inu making some Tahu type hits on his opponent forcing them to lose the ball

Inu has that X factor and can do some pretty amazing things but Reddy is more conservative and consistent, Inu has more potential but Reddy is as good as he will ever get

Depends what ever floats your boat I guess

I really think you should keep your fantasies about penetrating rose hancock out of this forum Ron

Well, I wouldn`t be too sure about that.

Or my mother! 78 years old. 7 stone 4 pounds. Retirement village.
She could easily force Inu into a Wenty jersey.
When I was a kid, she forced me into a jumper I hated. A light blue woollen thing that was all prickly and looked ridiculous. Said I had to wear it. Forced me to eat my vegetables. Very penetrating voice. More authority than Inu. Commanded more respect from her opposition (us kids). By gee! This could be mum`s year! I`d put her at right centre to keep Eric Grothe honest.

If we didn’t pay him overs to begin with we wouldn’t be having this discussion, Kris is a very good player, should he be on the money he is on now? No, but i still would like to see us offer him a contract beyond this year

probably the most sensible post thus far. Reddy, has been shocking also imo, but with Inu and what he's on, he just isn't worth the wait imo.

Seriously, many players have potential, not all of them realise it, Inu has had 4 years now, how much longer do we wait?

I`m beginning to wonder the same thing about Mr Mateo, too.
