Whenever I've seen Thurling play on the TV he's done some great things in attack, maybe a bit risky at times but he needs that exprerience in 1st grade to learn when to and not to do certain thinga, in saying that most of his offloads and round the body passes have payed off from what I've seen. He sure is skillfull. Maybe Henry doesn't like his defence, havn't really noticed its it good or weak myself to be honest. But if it came down to giving this kid a chance and more experience than to giving a Smith, Logan or Bickerstaff a run, I reckon it would be much more sensible to go with Thurling, at least give him a chance. He's young too.
