Since the doors opened for halves in 2016 have watched him play...or not play.
As an organiser - simply not good with options, decent step & individual skills - not great - plus kicking game average at best.
Tackling ok but again - even his defensive reads are off.
Problem is - with the quality players leaving, you want to hear names like Shaun Johnson to get excited but available halves are scarce for 2016....the best option imo was Michael Morgan who has now extended his Cows contract.
The Sandows & Alberts on offer will destroy the opposition 1 game out of 5, but you need solidarity & consistency in the spine or the team unravels....Maloney probably the next best option but not 100% sold as many 5/8 would look good at the Roosters.
Elgey could well be great with all the raving but keep in mind, many halves are talked up in QLd Cup & Holden Cup but fail to deliver in the NRL, worth a punt - on the cheap yes with who else is available.
Elgey/Maloney the best option for 2016
