Konrad Hurrell

[Andrew Walker]

I see Hurrell as a future forward...just too big and stocky to remain in the centres I would think.

Moga will have him for speed and mobility every time in the backs...we have the right one.

He looks very quick to me But his build does seem to be more one of a forward thsat a =n outside back Apparently he was a champion high school weightlifter this is why he is so big and strong

really? Hurrell has an elusive speed to him.. have you not seen some of his trys this year?

Here is a tip for you At seasons end Hurrell will take SKDs centre spot for NZ

Put a bet on it?

[Rooster_6]

R6 is still bitter because of the way he talked about Hurrell before he played, and dominated, us..
Made him look a fool.

How did him playing well disprove my statement that he had achieved nothing to date and that people were overrating him purely based on potentia?

You post some illogical shit sometimes.

I'm a fan of Hurrell, good kid.

Wait till opposition start running all of their traffic at him though. He can barely get through a full game as is. He really needs to address his fitness going forward.

Because you were wrong, and you can never seem to accept when you are - no matter the subject.
And now you are getting bitter and trying to bring this back on me. Classic.

Here's my quote...

Don't confuse match fitness with natural fitness, he's never been able to play the full 80 minutes even in the Under 20's. Also he was dropped back to the NSW Cup to work on his defence and rightly so, he's woeful.

A promising talent sure but he's done nothing to date, a few big runs doesn't make you a first grader.

What was I wrong about?

1) That he can't play the full 80 minutes?
2) That he's a woeful defender?
3) That he hadn't achieved anything to date before the Roosters game?

I still stand by all those assertions, at the time he hadn't achieved anything, he still hasn't shown the durability and fitness to play 80 minutes & he still hasn't proven himself in defence. If you disagree at least put a half decent argument together...

The other guy is right You are a bitter person As Hurrell has shown you up to be a goose

The main point being from the Roosters game onwards he is scoring a try a game Instead of acknowledging this you still pick holes in his game I have no doubt you will continue to do so throughout his career whenever he is mentioned on here

As I f I would bet with you I dont know you so therfore I have major reservations about whether you would pay up or honour your bet if you lose

.
Why would you consider him for the forwards when he is killing it as a centre. Confusing!

Future forward I said. At this early age and stage he is fine, but a man of his bulk will have mobility issues in the backs in a few years.

Like the other guy you can't even pinpoint what I was wrong about, you assume that I never rated his attacking ability because I talked him down. I said the same thing when everyone was getting wet about Uate, now everyone is starting to realise what a clumsy idiot he is.

Vatuvei & Graham fall into the same category, even SKD. Just because I bag them doesn't mean I don't rate their attacking ability they're all very very effective at what they do best but they're not well rounded players and thus don't deserve the accolades they get all the time imo. After all defense is 50% of the game...

1) Well yes, you were actually, he has been killing it over the course of 80 minutes for months now.
2) Agree to a certain extent, but he is no worse than plenty of centres who have been playing first grade for years.
3) Of course, he hadn't, he played about 3 games and they were from the bench, the thing is you wrote him off as a threat against us and he made you look like a fool.
Heck you even said he isn't a First Grader, lol.

So name a few centres that a great at defending and attacking?

I can only think of 3, maybe 4.
Hurrell's defense is first grade standard, especially considering he has played League for a year and a half. How often have you seen him f*ck up in defense lately?

He wasn't a First Grader when we were talking about him, he's more on his way now than he was back then. That wasn't an assertion based on potential just on what he had proven to date, don't get confused between the two.

So the only point you disagree with is the first one, that he doesn't have the fitness or durability to play the full 80 minutes. This despite the fact that in his 12 NRL games he's only played the full 80 minutes (at centre) in 6 of them.. that's 50% of his games. Even though I disagree with you on this I do think this is the least of his worries because it's a physical ability that can easily be rectified. More of worry is his defence.

I never once said he didn't have the potential to be a good player, in fact the contrary I said he did. Stop making assumptions because I'm not getting carried away with this bloke like the rest of the media and some supporters are, he's got a long way to go.

I've said similar things about Moga in that past, doesn't mean I don't rate the kid imo he's the most talented youngster I've ever seen come through the system but he's still got defensive issues and struggles to get involved in the play. Are you going to take that as me not rating him now too?

Who cares #$% about who rates who from other teams anyway?
