Quote: PopTart "That's the bit I don't get. You say he can't pass and has no running game and even say he misses tackles but then say he might develop into a good 13?
In answer to the question about Proctor. He is clearly having a problem with fitness but he has a good pass and not only never misses a tackle but clear hurts opponents when he hits them.
I'd like him to do more minutes and make more yards but ultimately he is a second row playing as a middle.....and clearly, his lack of fitness is why he's at Wakefield not NRL.
I wouldn't renew but he clearly has more skills than Crowthervto me.'"
For me he can pass, clearly or he would not have covered at 9. Distribution not as good as a natural 9 but okay for cover. Safe enough hands for a 13 at first receiver, but again never going to be quite as effective as say Westerman was.
We'll have to agree to disagree, I would have Crowther as more skillfull and contributing more in the squad and on the pitch over Proctor any day. Only thing I would have in Proctor's favour is that he doesn't seem to come up with many drop balls, which is something Crowther could improve on. That said, when you only take 4 carries in a game, you're less likely to knock on..
