...neither Renouf or Maric had particularly good 2011's after both were "solid" in 2010 & had fairly similar stats...my op is who has the bigger upside (without sounding like a wanky journo lol) going forward (Renouf is a couple of years younger from memory) however both are really just stop gaps as we hope one of the younger guys develops...for the record, heard that Maric was "done deal" to us & that he was visiting our facilities about a week ago (not sure if that's old news here)
...hoping Derrickx can develop as he showed in what little play he had this year that he seems to love a contest, doesn't fear body-on-body work & is willing to bust his guts...not sure what he's like as kick for goal if we rest him forward & throw TV in the ruck for patches of the game?? anyone have any knowledge on that?
