Message: [QUOTE="GCBRONCO, post: 2648480, member: 1808"] Having had a family relative on my brother in law's side playing in the same side Kahu and seeing him in action in a regular basis he was regarded at Keebra Park by his peers, commentators(do a quick scan on youtube for highlights of Keebra Park games that were televised from 2009 and you will hear the commentators often comment on Kahu as being a real talent and on his way to the NRL) and club scouts as being the most likely to be playing in the NRL within a two year period and the best prospect in his age group both at the club and one of the best in the competition. There were fans who also dismissed Hunt's as a future playmaker at club because with the limited time frame in the halves he received he didn't set the world on fire and when he did it was infrequently and not back to back. Kahu was first choice for 5/8th last season and there's a good reason, he was a far better playmaker option then Hoffman was and the only thing that hampered his opportunities have been injuries, it's unrealistic to expect him to come out all guns blazing immediately returning from them when you have had 3 season's of them and disrupted preseasons. I doubt very much the side of 2014 would have lost anything by having Kahu there, infact I would say we would have fared better then having Hoffman there and probably won some of the tighter ones given Hunt carried both Barba and Hoffman for most of the season. As I said I rate him and think his at present our best choice for fullback, but it's going to be the injury factor that determines how far his capable of going and even then, there is no certainty he will reach his potential, with any player there never is. How about this, lets just keep our expectations grounded for the moment and give him the opportunity. [/QUOTE]
