      He has the running game and the fend, and his errors are low although he did make a couple yesterday, probably nerves. I idolised Harris and Cleal as a school kid, and if he's half as good then we have something special.

      Again its early days and the proof will be if he can back it up week in and out.

        I'll be happy to finally have a player who can regularly break the line.

                Can't remember him making any errors yesterday. And I would not be worried about his size at all. He is more than quick enough at 106kg, skirted around Lett with ease and can still motor while he's fending off players coming from behind. There's a big difference between being a big back and being an overweight back. Fat is essentially useless mass when running, muscle is certainly not useless mass.

                  Did you see how much faster he was than Soliola in that clip?

                    Even Inglis was not as effective last year (when he was on the field) when he was carrying too much weight.
                    He was carrying fat as opposed to muscle.

                      Looks like Falou, no question about it...

From his first ball receive he was throwing defenders off him in all directions, on the second receive he ran about 30 metres sideways then another 20 metres forwards. Later on Made a linebreak and try-assist. This kid is unreal. Good defensive reads too.

                        Forgot to add, he constantly reminds teammates to stay onside and get back on the 10. Very good communication. I could see him pointing to offside teammates and screaming.
                        As I said in a previous thread following a comment that he may not be up for the mans game: "He will be a moutain among men & Souths are in for a shock"

                          Sorry comparing him to Izzy is not good enough, Falou was a gentle giant powder puff.

                          Tau Tau has got ATTITUDE with bigger thighs, a fitting comparison would be 'Jonah Lomu"

                            For an 18 year old he looks unbelievable, I want to believe the hype but I will just wait.

                              Do we think he will start in the centres? Wouldn't surprise me to see him on the wing until he picks up the pace of first grade. Might be wise to have him as a pure finisher to start with.
