Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 2583975, member: 1899"] Well it could just be me but I think consensus has moved onto the Queensland Cup to Paia'Aua, Strasser & Kahu. Might be better too since the halves were absolutely dire yesterday. In fairness, both of them can't even qualify for the NRL even if the Broncos wanted them to play but both are still extremely raw. I think both have a future, but on yesterdays efforts they'd be closer to a demotion than a call up. Still, despite having a shocker I thought Jayden showed some damn good signs, especially with his kicking game which was just so cruel that I had to feel sorry for Makoare-Boyce, the Souths fullback. It wasn't his best afternoon, but everything I've heard about Brimson is true - he's got a body that's just built for him to play direct and bring it to the line which is an underrated facet in the modern game. Kodi is being played at fullback and aside from looking like he's going to drop the ball everytime he gets it (ala Barba) all he seemingly does is throw do or die cut-out passes which are inferior to Hodges in everyway. His best play of the afternoon was when he just decided to go himself, drew the defence in and set Alick down the corner. That was good, but he's no where near ready. In saying that, I don't think he should be played at fullback. That's a self-fulfilling prophecy and how Hook expects him to press his claims from that position is odd. Course maybe that's Kodi's best bet for a future in the NRL, but right now he needs to manufacture a half and this is just plain odd. [/QUOTE]
