I cant be bothered laying it all out again with screenshots... but the try and the near-try ppl r blaming on Finau, was the result of being outside a rookie centre.. 1 was a 4on4 situation where Lawson charged full pelt out of the line.. didnt stop the pass.. and left an obvious 2on1 for Finau... the other was Lawson turning to tackle the decoy before realising his error and changing direction late.. but the damage was done.

Its fine, Lawson is learning a brand new game and a brand new position,... and hes going to make tonnes of these mistakes, but not fair to lay blame on Finau.. and a different story when Finau is outside an experienced centre who wont be baited.

Completely agree. He had the same issues playing outside Tamale who was horrible in defence at centre

Halangahu knows his way around a footy field & through the defence what a beast, 18 turns 19 in August & is 109kg & growing. He is an outstanding propect.
Yes but once fully grown wont his size be better suited in the middle. I see him as a young Addin-Blake at the moment. As he grows he will also lose pace which you need on the edge. Just my opinion.
