:lol: He is the next big thing and an amazing talent, until Manly sign him and now he is over rated :crazy:

Let him prove himself either way before we call him the best or write him off. After a pre-season of training and a few 1st grade games off the wing under Hasler, then we'll see how he goes.

Forget Tony Williams this year. IMO, DAVID Williams has made a much bigger and better impact. I love the way this kid plays. Just looks like he's having a ball.

Now THERE'S a subject worthy of rookie of the year !

 

[Timbo]

I'm pretty happy with Justin Carney - he has great strength and power, the ability to bounce tacklers off him aswell, can find gaps and such. Also seems to be solid in defence and under the high ball...

I think it'll come down to Carney or Williams for rookie of the year.

playing 10 to 12 games will not work for these guys...the rookie will be someone who has alot of games under his belt. eg: Matt Keating

That seems to be the trend. Jarryd Hayne is the only rookie of the year recently to have not started the season in first grade. Even he played 17 or 18 games in 2006 though.

He's no Nightingale.

I love Robbo and Bani. But I would take Dave Williams over either at the moment.

Hope he is a Sea Eagle for a long time.

 

[Sir Biffo]

Why wasn't Tony Williams in the Telegraph poll for greatest player?

2 games at winger - please. Once people work him out we'll see if he's just a flash in the pan or a serious first grader.

My money is on Keating as well unless either Williams or Carney have 2 barnstorming months.

Lyon plays one good game in amoung 35 sh*t ones, he is a flop and is enjoying the money he has made from Eng and noe Manly for doing jacksh*t but eating pie and chasing pigs.

Parramatta on the other hand have Hayne and Inu on less money then Lyon, yet both are far superior and younger. Enjoy our $600K fat lard

no has been consistent and played well this in a team tied top of the comp, and last year he didn't excite or perform overly well in the second best team but wasnt crap, ike I said not value for money but not crap.......your bias is really seeping through that post

 

[Bobby DIGital]

Keating hasn't stood out at all. No rookie has...until Justin Carney's debut. It was the best debut for a rookie in a long time. Even better than Folau's last year Vs the Tigers. The race for rookie of the year is wide open. If Carney plays another 8-10 games like he did on sunday he'll win it easily.

 

[miccle]

I see shades of Leon Bott in this Tony Williams - they were both getting talked up very early in their careers.

The NSW Cup should get ready...

 

[Patorick]

Umm, Bott is like 5'3. And a speed bump/turnstile in defence. I think that comparison is a bit much miccle.

Lol Atkins basically fell over the line 4 times. He has played like 1 game since and done nothing.

 

[Bobby DIGital]

^Exactly.

Atkins is about to go down in history as a trivia question.

 

[Patorick]

Bump

 

[wittyfan]

Safe as houses with the ball.

 

[jason taylor]

Lol he got the ball striped off him in the in goal.

 

[Chook Norris]

*ouch*'

that might hurt his reptuation
