Must admit when we first signed him I thought he might be a bit of a dud, given his handling wasn't great but he has improved out of sight and is our best go-forward carrier of the ball.

Good news is this.

Very positive. Great news

i agree with the rest of the posts, mr reliable has had his best season - he seems fitter, leaner & a little quicker, just needs to add better variety to his passing game

Great to see bill comit to us
Has had an excellent year

In regards his best position I'd say centre
Although he's an excellent winger also
It's good to have that extra bit of versatility from a player

What I really want to see is the wing centre combo with tommy next season
If they can learn to play off each other, work and read each other they could be try scoring machines and top defensively also

Hi musson, I can understand the excitement. For me though I always thought that Arundle was the best centre for Johnstone, together they always seemed to generate a lot of tries and scoring opportunities. It is debatable as to whether Arundle or Tupou is the best centre but I think Joe is better for Tom.

I think we look a more balanced side with Joe in the team, especially when he shows the kind of form he did against Leeds. But I also think Tupou is a cracking player on his day, and Lyne gets better each season.... nice selection dilemma to have I suppose!
