On top of that i must say he looks like a gem of a player-But would be suited at fullback-The question remains-Where does Hayne go if marmin steps up??

Oh and at the idea of Hooker-LOL
See what happens to Mitchel trying to play Hooker beeing a little on the small side.
Hookers must be built super strong

I'm not saying he couldn't make it. Don't get me wrong. Like I said I would love to have him in the team next year. I don't have a problem with his size. But from what I have been told its not his height but apparently he cant physically put on weight, unlike his brother which is stopping them from signing him. Hoepfully he smashes it enough this year so that they change their minds

I hope not, I think the kid still needs a year in NYC and maybe a few wenty appearances before he gets thrown into the gauntlet. Probably play off the bench for a few seasons as well before getting shifted into the team. From what I have seen (which is a couple of matches) he doesn't have what it takes to be an NRL fullback, he has pretty poor defensive positioning and his ability under the high ball is questionable a lot like his brother. He is defiantly not a natural fullback and I think his best position is 5-8.
