A lot like Carl Webb, Dane Carlaw's origin career was built on one moment. In Dane's case, it was being in the right place at the right time. I mean, he ran over the top of bloody Jason Moodie with 5 metres to go ... I'm 180cm and 76kg and I reckon I'd give the firefighter a run for his money 5 metres off the line.

He ran over Brett Hodgson, my good sir.

"I love having that big thing inside me." - Eric Grothe talking about his new 3/4 line partner Ben Smith - 2005.

LOL

I was just looking at the Parra team photo in last week's RLW and Smith is certainly a unit, looks bigger than Mateo and Grothe.

The more extraordinary thing though is how big Joel Reddy looks. If you compare him to the guys standing near him, like Hayne/Inu/Mannah, he looks to be seriously about 6'7". That's preposterous (maybe he's on tiptoes??), but he has to be 6'4" bare minimum, yet he doesn't exactly play with a huge physical presence.

the only self appointed 'enforcer' in the nrl

heres a tip bryce, if you have to call yourself an 'enforcer', it generally means you arent one

last year id have agreed on Shillington but this year he's not shirk his responsibilities and the tough stuff for the most part, he's had 1 or 2 "soft" games, which i guess is to be expected but he's been outstanding this year. Making loads of hit ups and chewing through a heap of metres. Comes up with some bell ringers in defense too. Couldnt be happier with him

No way Reddy is 6'4". I walked past him at Bunnings at Nth Parramatta & he looked small to me. I'm 6'2" @ 102kg & I'd say Reddy would be about 6' @ 95kg.

ok, then Hayne is 5'7", Inu and Mannah 5'6", and Moimoi about 5'5".

Maybe Reddy was wearing stilletos?

Look at Reddy with 6'1" listed Hindmarsh and Cayless...

ftr he is listed at 6'3" but he certainly seems to be taller

Have to call bulls*t on your sighting Beez

Shillo is still well down on tackle breaks. I have watched him closely this year, and he has played almost the same as he has at Roosters. He is a tough bloke, but he clearly does not use his frame to its full potential. Shillo will never be a TOP prop, he will always be a good mid-range prop by NRL standards, but blokes like Mick Weyman, Matt Scott and Ben Hannant will fly past him.
