From what I've watched of Souths games this year, he hasn't been great. That may be due to them trying him out as a centre so it's hard to judge but i'm going to anyway. His ball handling has been ordinary, doesn't really look able to setup his winger, He got punted from left centre back to the right wing against Melbourne which coincided with their comeback. Looks to be a decent finisher close to the line and has size so he can ruck out ok.Yeah he seems to have a bit of a rivalry for that NRL spot with Mansour. I don’t watch Souths close enough to understand why. Looking at his stats, he hasn’t been a big metre eater of late. Then again, I don’t know how many kick returns he gets. Also Souths tend to go to the left when in the red zone, so the winger on the right doesn’t get sweet the ball in space like Alex Johnston does.
Is he better than what we have in out lower grades? Maybe, but IMO not by enough to waste one of our last 2 spots on.
