Message: [QUOTE="Number6, post: 2977143, member: 9008"] That was the problem with under 20s. Very few go onto NRL. It wasn’t a fail in the usual sense for me. A lot of international and SOO and bad luck with injury. The problem was they were overly hyped, overused and relied upon which prevented us seeking better options and have all peaked early with lots of heart but poor football smarts or a ability to deliver in a clutch. As much respect as have for their work ethic as a whole have none for their failure to learn. That’s why Parker was a favourite player. Kept developing into his 30s. Same with Locky and Hodges even once they lost their speed they compensated with skills, leadership and guile. Dont expect everyone to be able to do what the greats do but none of that group show even an ounce of that. [/QUOTE]
