If he's worth persisting with (and given his young age, he may well be), I'd say he could use a stint in reggies, to get some confidence.

Yep, not first grade standard in defence any more. Left in no man's land twice on Bulldogs tries tonight.

Has Origin reps either side of him in the defensive line, and Penisini still can't work out who to mark up against, or decide when to hold or when to slide.

If the playmaker gets it right, then it doesn't matter what the defending centre does. If he comes in on the lead runner, the ball goes outside him. If he stays out, the 'decoy' gets the ball on his inside. The same thing happens when we score out wide. Stay on your man Crichton ffs:

much improved for mine, but he's not there yet

one swallow does not make a summer, if he can do that week in week out, he may become NRL quality
He's already done it week in week out, in previous years. He is having his statistically worst season and merkins are pretending he was always this bad.

Well you are entitled to your opinion, I disagree, he was always an emerging player for mine who had yet to prove himself

No, this whole thread is about his regression from how he was in his first NRL season. Part of what appeared to happen for a lot of players under BA.

Glad last night showed Will can again head in the right direction within the Eels new system and regime. There is hope yet...

He didn't regress from his first season, he improved until 2023 and then regressed. The stats support this:

You still here, clogging up threads with selective stats bullshit just to be contrary? :laughing:

Penisini has been a shadow of his initial performances/potential. Good to see him take some steps in the right direction.

Apologies for selectively digging up Penisini's career stats record to show how he was better in 2023 than he was in 2021 or any year since 2023.
