To hell with it. Kid looks a good get and i think if played in the right ROLE willl just keep on getting better. With a pile of better players around him with a lot less passengers he will definately be better.Just play him and FCUCK Houli off. In fact give him Houli's role where all he has to do is find a bit of space or run past for an easy recieve and run and deliver the bloody pill.He has already shown he won't play scared like Bachar and he is at least prepared to try and defend an opponent.
Not saying Houlis in great form at the moment but this idea that his role is so easy to fill is just not true. Corey Ellis, Connor Menadue, Oleg Markov, Taylor Hunt, etc. etc.
You’re very big on numbers and disposals. You really reckon Hugo can grab more than the 10-15 disposals that you’ve been so critical of Kmac for avging?
Lol yep im critical of the numbers McIntosh gets but im far more critical of his ball use which is usually just slam it on the foot in panic and constant fumbling fair dinkum in a lot of games you would think he put grease on his hands.
In time when he actually gets a bit of beef on his frame i think Ralphsmith will be a far better player than what McIntosh can only dream about.
Just my opinion but atm Hugo is not physically ready for the game at this level but here we are playing him and thats a good thing and he did okay this game.
Thompson Dow played on the wing and i was not having heart palpitations when he had ball in hand unlike when McIntosh has it.
Kid already looks a better player than McIntosh and he certainly looks far more polished.
