Quote Bullseye="Bullseye"
Patience is the key here. When Leeds blooded players like Burrow, McGuire etc in 2001/2002 there were plenty saying they wouldn't make it and should be binned as they certainly didn't set the world alight at first. Thankfully for Leeds those voices were ignored and they were given time to come through. We need to exercise the same patience.'"
I thought most said that Burrow, McGuire etc would make it as star players from what i recall.
Obviously you need to give youngsters time. I just think they have been billed up a bit too much.
Quote Bullseye="Gurus_Beard"
Inglis played 6 as early from 2007 for Melbourne, frequently. And still does.
Gasnier is an established 6 despite starting as a centre.
The caveat being, of all those originally named, the theme remains the same. The obsession with forcing big units to become forwards.'"
Inglis is just a freak of a player and Gasnier was pretty damn special too.
Thing is both Inglis and Gasnier are better centres. Has either of them played rep rugby at 6?
I just think you got wrong end of stick. Just because i thought Addy was a bit big for a 6, doesn't mean anyone is too big to be a back.

but you can't rule him out either without viewing a few times'"
I have seen him a few times. You can't compare him to the names mentioned before even if he does look decent.
