Likiliki or Bristow

Hey.

I know you guys have two very talented centres in these guys. My question is, if you could only keep one, who would you choose.

I know Likiliki just made his debut, but I'm looking for opinions.

Thanks

Bristow, I think, is the more talented of the two. However, he's short and stocky and whilst he is damaging at 20s level, I don't know how he'd go in the NRL.

He's also apparently got training and work ethic issues and from the games I've seen, I think Likiliki has him in layers for consistency. Bristow has absolute booming games but can go the other way.

So to answer your question, I think Likiliki. I didn't see the Eels game (thank god) so I don't know how he went there.

He caught a cold like most Warriors attackers on the right hand side.

I'd take Likiliki in a second over Bristow. The try he set up for Tupou against the Dragons U20's a couple of weeks ago was enough evidence for me and I was already sold on him. Got the ball with a bit of space, palmed off one, threw a dummy, accelerated through the gap, drew the cover and passed perfectly for Tupou. Classic centres try. Likiliki all the way.

I like Bristow, but he doesn't have the same speed, ball skills, and is destined to end up in the second row.
