I’m 99.99% certain that he’s here because Simon Moran was a big fan of his back when he was in his prime at Union (before Burgess displaced him).
However, that was seven years ago. Despite the fact he’s not costing us on the cap this year I feel there is pressure to get some return on the investment by blooding him to get him some top-level game experience. He seems like a super bloke who’s working really hard but if he isn’t cutting the mustard I want the best squad fillers we have on that bench.
I have a sneaky feeling he will continue to play though... again it comes down to how much the club really want to win the GF rather than just exist as a popular sporting club with good attendances and a fancy ground.
