Message: [QUOTE="Jedhead, post: 2906933, member: 9518"] Regardless of whether it was his skill set or his size, the point you are missing here is that there was doubts that Alf would not measure up. This is exactly the same foundations or essence of the argument being made about Niko. And what is "realistic" ? This is such a subjective, nondescript comment. "if your (sic) being honest", 2015 was a combination of luck skill and the bounce of the ball, that's what makes RL such a compelling spectator sport. As far as Niko "yet to demonstrate he has the required skill set". He can only showcase this when he has time on the park in that position with a settled spine to work with. I tend to think 11 wins from 13 starts last season in anyone's book is a pretty damned good reflection of having the required skill set. He has also made it to a starting spot with the Kiwi test side and for mine he should keep it regardless whether Shaun Johnson is fit or not. SH may have a great step and running game but that is the only skill that has immediately transferred over form his touch footy days. The rest, he has a long way to go in perfecting. [/QUOTE]
