Message: [QUOTE="Porthoz, post: 2651055, member: 2221"] Hmm... my question was about how one determines if someone is good enough to get to first grade in the first place. He never had a chance to have any sort of continuity in FG, which makes it harder to show something and stay in the retina, especially when returning from devastating injuries such as ACL. Even then, in the 13 games he played, he certainly showed more than most guys we currently have in our backline. Just have a look at the highlights from the final games of last season. If you don't see it, we just view the game differently. Yeah, you really haven't been paying attention, have you? I'm not talking about first grade, I'm talking about coming through the ranks, where Milford for example, was highly regarded before EVER playing a FG game or even ISC/NSW cup. With that, let's get this straight: I'm not saying Kahu is at Milford's level, but in terms of skill and talent, he's one of the best FB's I've seen coming through. Will that translate into FG? I'm not sure, and I'm not guaranteeing it will, but I hope so! Is that ok with you? By the way you answered, I'd say you're the one who needs the cement spoon. Either that, or it's just a matter of comprehension. I've explained the reason why I (and others) see potential in him, in what in my case would be at least 50 or 60 games I've seen him play. I don't have or need to convince you of anything, and it's my prerogative to think that injuries and his career coming through is relevant in my assessment. You saw a whole 13 games between injuries in a rudderless team, and because you apparently didn't see him do anything, it's enough to climb on that high horse. Careful you don't break anything when you inevitably fall off... [/QUOTE]
