    It will be interesting to see what happens when we have a center who plays 80 minutes in a game as opposed to someone who has 2 minutes of brilliance and 78 minutes of getting lost in the backs. What a difference it would have been if he would get involved like Tupou, who in my opinion was the most consistent player for us in 2019
    But Latrell is never going to be that type of player. His best game last season was against the Wests Tigers. 3 tries, a couple of try assists and a line break assist with countless tackle busts and it all came from 8 or 9 runs. He's an explosive athlete not a work horse and I don't think Robbo minds if he doesn't take a run every set like some fans want him to do.

      Chalk and cheese sadly, with all due respect to Billy.

        Two minutes of brilliance won us a GF.

        Cut it any way you want but losing Latrell is shattering.

          ..and its what a brilliant player will do when the going gets tough. Latts has a lot of tricks up his sleeve when he is awake
          Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe

            This has been my point as well, why would you want Latrell doing bash up the middle stuff? it's not his thing, he waits for an opportunity and explodes. Its first grade football you cant always just make stuff happen.
            We have forwards and wingers for hit ups.
