The Huddersfield fans who rated him are those that were 100% behind Anderson.
Some of us did not rate him. He is 24 I think and slower than Yeaman is now. 1
Huddersfield Giants 2013 over achievers
Huddersfield Giants 2014 under achievers ??????????
I've always been impressed with him when I've seen him play , but I can't see him been happy if he's not playing . It's not as though he's 18/19 and willing to be patient for his chance . Not a position I thought we was in need of , unless either yeaman is retiring or maybe fonua is going back home !
Not seen anything of the lad and certainly never stood out when we have played Huddersfield. The concern for me is when you read the Huddersfield forum comments on him whether they are positive or negative what does come to light is his lack of pace.
Can't say I'm overawed, it's clear signal there is no faith in our own youth products IMHO, are they really that bad that we have to sign another lowly clubs cast-off that has no pedigree?
We've had no-one come onto the scene and cement a regular place in the 17 since Shaul at the back end of 2013(Albeit due to injury to McDonnell), isn't that somewhat worrying that our youth system hasn't produced a break through player in getting on for three years?
