Quote: PopTart "I agree. He's got a lot going for him.
He'll take some time getting used to Super League. There are some big boys on the wing and he won't be able to just rely on speed alone as they are fast too.
Switching to FB has I think given him more range to his game. His passing is better and his evasive running is better. Both will help him when he's back on the wing.'"
Totally agree. I think that’s one of the most important points that our backs have to be prepared for. There are bigger, stronger and faster opponents on the edges next season. Their physical demand will increase. That said I’m positive with the back room team we have they will prepare the players for this.
Regards tackling and Walmsley. I thought the start of the season we were getting a winger who struggled to tackle but was good in attack. Pretty much all year I’ve been impressed by his defensive side. He really doesn’t miss any and certainly makes his tackles.
Really looking forward to seeing how some of these players transition.
Had a conversation about Rodwell yesterday. He will go well in SL but he will come up against some bigger and stronger forwards too so that will be an interesting test for him.
