Sorry to be a bit difficult. I have now seen Luciano play a few games and I'm waiting to see the action meet the hype. Seems to have an offload and pass ok tick. Not a strong power defender. Haven't seen him charge through and bust tackles etc.
not being half smart but there are lots of young powerful Islander background guys around the clubs who seem to pop up at other clubs like mushrooms. Luciano other than get a good offload away to Widdoph against Broncos what else?
He is very very young and hasn't been given much game time or good ball. In the U20's he is given a lot more carries and a lot of early ball to do what he does. He has the same skill set as his brother who has been a revelation at Canberra.
He isn't a hole running back rower, he has the size to take crash balls and stuff, but he is the kind of player that when given time, defences just stand still, much like Bryce Cartwright
How can you expect a player to break a game open when they don't give him early ball in attacking zones and only give him 20 mins of game time. He got early ball once against the knights and produced a try that not one person other than maybe Benji if he didn't throw it into the crowd could have produced.
The thing with Luciano is we have seen glimpses of what he can do and that is all you can expect when given limited game time, in his second game he throw a beautiful inside ball to Quinlin who put it down and bombed a certain try.
