He's far too big to play out wide now
Not sure about now but I remember a try that Yeo scored against the Roosters at home in 2016 when he broke through the line to score and he was quite fast.
It’s an unpopular opinion but our attack is starting to look better without Yeo. First noticed it in the GF last year; a lot made of Cogger for Yeo but I thought it was getting the ball into the halves hands earlier that really unlocked the team. Luai in particular looks better without Yeo as he gets earlier ball.
Yeo is our only forward who makes meters every game. He's had to lift and carry some very lazy middles this year
You are right; he is a very good ball runner. My concerns are as a ball player.
He's been mixing it well this year. The issue is when no one else is making meters up the guts. Fish had found some form before getting hurt
Good observation - can't say it has stood out as obvious to my eyes. We definitely look far more dangerous when Luai and Cleary play on the same side of the ruck when we are attacking. Before Cleary was back it was often Yeo - Luai. I still think Yeo's ball playing in the middle 40 of the field is invaluable because it puts the defence in two minds - is he going to cart the ball up field and run for 10-15m or is he going to pass. That is where he makes his best decisions with ball in hand.
