The only question mark he has is his defence, however so do quite a few halves and if his attack is brilliant that can be overlooked initially and worked on.

Jesus its going to annoy me if he goes really well in 1sts, especially since we are apparantly chasing Carney so hard for big dollars.
Well the talking point from his short time on the field against Dragons last week was his awesome chase-tackle which saved a try.

I did not notice defensive issues in the junior grades from him and last year I did not see much PL at all, there were a few comments about his poor defence from some Manly fans however it is very likely it was sour grapes due to his defection.

I've checked the kennel and someone said that Groom was defending at right centre and he did a fine job, but they are concerned with his tackling style on the big guys.

The thing I love about that video is that the only thing it doesn't show is his defence. It shows his brilliant running game, his passing game and his very nice kicking game. From the word on the street the kid can also defend. Great sings.

His defense is probably where he falls short tbh. Thats probably why there is no defensive highlights.

His defence is his main weakness. Manly played him at hooker last year to improve it, time will tell.
