I agree to an extent. His problem whilst at Leeds was that he was in and out of the side so much and often played in a different position that it was hard for him to make a position his own. He did well as a bench hooker and as a back up half. He did okay at fullback but his problem was he often made silly errors, partly down to being swapped around so much and partly as he was a young player coming on and trying to make an impression.
It's interesting to note that since he went to the Roosters and played fullback he became very consistent and has really matured. He is a skillful player and is strong with decent speed. He now has experience of the NRL aswell as playing in big matches for the Rhinos.
I think he could be a real surprise package for us next season.
