Agree with you about Kyle,should have been given more time
I was so furious early 2012 at Price keeping him at fullback & centre, he was never going to develop into a fullback... he is only effective close to the defensive line (which he would be at half), he just isnt capable of collisions which are essential to fullback.. and centre was a bit better, but it also didnt suit him (never a longterm position for him).
He desperately needed to be in the Cutters and developing his 5/8 skills & confidence.. but nope.. Price waited until end of year when the finals were on the line and threw him in with no experience at all, 5 minutes later and it was all over.
Fast Forward to 2013 and there is an opportunity for somebody else to be working on their skills (Quinlan would be a great experiment), but once again nope.. were just wasting time again with Ryan (and Lett previously), neither of which I imagine are/were any chance of playing 1st grade.
