Message: [QUOTE="Unbreakable, post: 2831031, member: 8290"] I probably couldn't disagree more. I don't understand all this hype Nikorima is getting, yeah he's not playing awful, but he's not exactly playing like a Halfback either, he's doing exactly what I and many others predicted, showing that he's got a capable running game and good instincts, but severely lacks the kicking game and management skills of a real Halfback. We're basically playing 2 running Five-Eighth's right now, which may work for a couple of weeks against poor opposition, but the second we come up against a top 4 side with a good kicking game, we're completely toast. For example we started the season 2-2 against arguably the top 4 sides and came out 2-2, I think we would have been 0-4 with Nikorima instead of Hunt. I'm all for giving him a proper opportunity and everything, but declaring him our Halfback of the future is completely short-sighted, he still hasn't come close to proving to me that he could help steer the team around for 26 rounds in 2018. I'm still leaning towards signing a stop-gap on a 1 year deal, someone like Tyrone Roberts. [/QUOTE]
