UP THE TRIN !!!!

O'Brian : Tue Oct 09, 2018 10:36 pm  
Would take him any day of the week he gets better each season and he is the closest thing to a affordable full back that can hold is own against the top 4-5 teams. Toronto failed hope contact can be made hes quality.

Don't count on it, I'll bet Toronto's pockets will be even deeper next year, so they don't mess up again

Top six 2005 - Trinity.

I think he is poor and wouldn’t touch him with a barge pole.

He’s exactly where his quality matches. The championship. Maybe brutal to read but I don’t rate him at all.

I do actually rate him, and think he is too good for the championship, and would love to see him in the red, white and blue, and with all the negativity of late, regarding our full backs, could be worth a punt.

Also has a very good kicking game, and kicks well under pressure.

However, I feel he would be out of our price bracket

He shines in the qualifiers where as our two full backs have assisted with two back to back top five finishes. Says it all.

I do think he's decent but I've no doubt you'd round on him as soon as he misses a last minute conversion to earn a point for his side.

I'm nowhere near Grixs biggest fan but there's no way I'd have Obrien over him and Jowitt. Anyway it's a non starter as Toronto can afford to keep him.

He is good at what he does but he doesn't have all the skills we need.
Similar player to Hampshire but not as good in my opinion.

I like him
If he was available he'd improve us

Can't see him leaving the wolf pack though
