Nice try... But neither of the players you named peaked at 21. Taylor's best season was in 2020, aged 25. Idris had his best season in 2014, which was the year he turned 24. Idris might've peaked but if mental illness hadn't cut Taylor's career short he would probably be even better today. There's no substitute for experience.
I never said everyone makes it after 21, I said they all improve after 21.
Laughable efforts to cling onto your ill considered and laughable claim, that no rugby league player peaks at 21.
Revisionist history. You said "no rugby league player peaks at 21".
He debuted while contracted to the under 20s side and played four games in two years, as an emergency backup, for zero wins. His 2016 reserve grade season was his peak in rugby league, aged 24. But this bloke probably never had a full time contract in Australia. Like most halves his defence probably held him back. Get your body in front merkin
It's the same thing. They don't peak at 21 because they still have improvement in them. If they leave the game by 21 it's not because they peaked at 21. It's because their junior contract ran out and no club offered them another, or because they didn't want to stick around earning $50k as a backup. But these days even the lowest paid top 30 players earn a living wage so they can stay in the game and continue to develop.
I said "any player who remains a full time pro", which you even quoted. Now you're trying to misrepresent me, on a forum where our words are on record you silly merkin. Don't be calling anyone else silly until you sort your own shit out.
How’s you do that?
But but but the guys on TCT said he finished second to Gutho in a walking race

Apparently the Raiders have signed Ethan 'Colonel' Sanders for 2 years from 2025, just checking in if he's any good?
Thoughts?

19 years old and never played reserve grade. He will probably become a first grader, so he's better than most players his age. It would've been nice to be able to keep him.Hey all,

Don’t worry mate Sanders won’t missed, it was all part of the clubs plans. Development club!!Looks like Captain Rankin gets another year in the sun.
