Message: [QUOTE="1910, post: 3088678, member: 8272"] Gillett always surprised me, just didn't see his career coming. He did things his way in all the lead up and it just didn't seem like a long term career would or could follow. When you have a guy saying no to NYC finals so he can play Colts for Wests, or on the wing for Redcliffe scoring 29 tries but he goes and plays for Bribie. Then onto Norths in 2009 and he was playing 6 and won ISC rookie of the year but you still didn't say well there is a 200 game player. It should have been all sign posts, dedicated to his team, his mates and doing any role his team needed. The ball just seemed to bounce for him, like he was a great slip fielder. He was moving before the ball. So many big plays which were just him reading and understanding where the ball was going to end up. His first try, backing up Winterstein, charge downs, Origin try waiting for Hodges to flick it back. That instinct only comes if you have a great understanding of the game and you make the effort to get there. His defence was all about effort, he missed a few but he his body was always there and taking the hit up early and ready. [/QUOTE]
