10 months after i put this thread up I am none the wiser if Penisini can get to another level as a elite centre.

Anyone else a little worried atm.

I am not worried..

Only person worried should be Will...

His raw talent has plateaued and now he needs an actual coach to continue his development. Unfortunately we don't have one of those.

And now he has regressed significantly in both attack and defence. Channelling Waqa Blake.

Yep, recency bias would have merkins thinking our entire team is shit.

They are. In fact they are the shittest team in the comp.

I thought he was awesome against the Sharks. He had a bad game last night. It happens to everyone.

His form has followed the senior players'. I reckon they did too much chasing ropes in the preseason and not enough chasing collisions.

 

[Avenger]

He’s severely overrated here and lacks pace. There would be 10 centres I’d take before him.

Anyway, back in the real world.

You are a funny fella

Will had a garbage game last night, but FMD he’s 21. Still learning the game.

Even playing in a crap side this year, he often has been one of our better players.

He has had 3.5 years in the NRL now I believe??
- positives are his strength, ability to find the line and doesn’t get manhandled
- negatives are his lack of football smarts, poor defensive reads, lack of genuine pace and desire, (that is, drops his head and won’t scramble for a ball)
On balance too much rocks, not enough diamonds for me. Cant ever see him being an origin player.

I don’t think he is origin material either. You have to be super dynamic. However if he can be a solid Michael Jennings style (ok not as fast), then that’s fine by me. Not many teams can carry Zac and another elite back.

He's lucky if he can get to Ryan Morgan or Joel Reddy standard. Michael Jennings? You f**king serious? He was a generational talent. A f**kwit but still a talent.

 

[hineyrulz]

I'd be more worried if questions are still being raised by Will this time next season, a real coach could do him wonders. Same for Brown.

Umm. Coates,Papenhuyzen, Warbrick in one team.
Hammer, Farnsworth , Isaako
Walsh, Cobbo,Staggs and Mariner
Etc etc
We spend too much on big forwards particularly when the game started to change 2 years or so ago.

What about when BA hid Bryce's bag. That was great for team morale. Such a prankster

Most sides have 2 x elite backs and one above average along with an average one.
We have currently 1 average one in Will and 3 below average.

 

[hindy111]

We are paying Sivo elite back money. That's our issue.
The rest are only being paid for what they are worth. BA under valued dangerous backs

Next year might be different. I rate Will as above average. Lokax elite. We either need 2 x more above average players or 1 x elite and 1 average

The bloke has no idea about footy mate, take anything he posts with a grain of salt and a tonne of hilarity because all of what he posts regarding footy is a joke....

Stick with the rest of the adults when there's footy talk....
