Good news.
A very useful and versatile player with a great attitude.

hope he's better than oconnor another youngster given too long like golding an walker were

Brilliant. Thought he went well against Wakey...

I always look at him and think - not quite big enough. I used to do the same with John Bateman. He might never be a Bateman, but he does have a lot going for him. Pleased we have resigned.

Just to add to the whole size issue (because I had the same reservations) according to listed weights and height he’s roughly in the same ball park as Murray and Radley, who both play 13 successfully in the NRL. Granted they’re both maybe half a stone heavier but O Connor has time to add that yet if needed.

I really rate him, he’s a smart footballer and we wouldn’t have to loose that added bit of shape if he was used to spell Smith because he can ball play rather than just using a prop or ‘middle’ at 13.

Pleased with this, but does signal Dwyer is leaving which I’m not unhappy about. Jarrod has good potential in a number of roles, so will be a valuable asset for us over the next few years.
