Alvaro is a work horse, leads by example, makes plenty of tackles and doesn't go off knackered.

He d be a solid signing for our pack, brings some leadership and seniority too.

I'd rather have him than taylor

Makes more carries
Makes more tackles
Plays longer minutes
Probably makes more metres too although il wait to be proved wrong

Maybe it was that which we were alluding to when we said we were gonna keep a quota space open.

He is electric isn't he! Just think he needs some more size to him as he seems to pick up knocks easily because of how slight he is.
I've hyped him up on here before but Alvaro coming up with 51 tackles with 0 misses and going for over 100m again is just ridiculous.

He has the ability and pace to make a good attacking halfback.
might not be the best defender in the world but he would score a lot of tries and slice through defences just like we see with Field at Wigan when playing half back

https://youtu.be/dcS1SUlz9yg Some nice touches from Hoy in this match. Makes a fudge of a kick in goal, but has a nice line break and a line break assist to set up a try. Nearly helps level things for thr knights at the end too

I thought his catch in the in-goal area, followed by only being tackled at the half way line was really good. Andrew Voss had nothing but praise for him. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in one of our shirts.

100% a full back similar to field/French with speed

That's how I see it.
Dangerous in broken play and keen to join the line in offence.
Got a decent whack with the boot as well.

Got to play full back for me ,where his pace is best suited, really impressed with him and think he has potential to be a superstar in SL.

Yep, he could go really well, but being a potential superstar in SL is tempered by the fact he's coming to us.
