Looks a good player, we forget how much larger the NRL pool of players is, for them to stand out enough for 2nd grade is no mean feat and this guy looks to have plenty of guile and pace at dummy half, which neither of our current hookers have shown this year, Houghton because he has had to do long stints, because JJ is, sadly, not good enough. I'd rather sign young and fit project types than veteran and injury prone players that nobody else would take, as we have done on previous occasions.
Matthew Shaw write a good article about him, said that he has his opportunities at Souths made harder by the fact the reserves keep cancelling their season due to covid, he has only been able to play 11 reserve grade games due to covid. Plus he is trying to remove the best hooker in the world IMO.
A one year deal would make this deal better, see how he goes for a year, he is certainly the type of hooker we need, let's hope he is of higher SL standard.
