He is a far more natural ball player than Jack Wighton.
Great news if he has agreed to an extension.

Horse and Mooney should be in the team (bench).
Whitehead should be dropped...i don't understand how he is ahead of Hosking or anyone else in that forward pack to be honest...
But yeah, our coach will never.
