Are are lady supporters going to call him Sexy Texy?

He helped Knights to a win this morning and looked really sharp. Warren Smith (commentator) thinks he will be a star in Superleague.

He looks a handy player and took his try well - looks a good bet for full back with his speed coming into the line .

He’s got ambition to play at the top level.

Fine with that and for him to achieve it he has to play well the next few years

No problem with a young player wanting to sign for a couple of years with a view to getting a deal back in the NRL. Can only be a positive as we get a player who wants and needs to play well to achieve that. Rather than an old player than maybe comes here as one last payday.
