Dont forget position change.Brad's best game of his life last night.
Isnt it amazing how much difference coaching and structures can make to a player.

Aitken is a good centre, but not eliteHe matched up with Aitken who is arguably an elite centre who has ripped us in past games,he kept him quiet and scored a try himself,enough said....He could develop into a long term,low cost option at left centre who is a smart,solid defender and does his job well,jeez,that sort of sounds like a Des player and the sort of guy we need to have to keep all the other talent we have and he ones coming through?
That is why I said arguably,but outside of Mitchell,who is an elite centre in the modern game?He is in the next bracket of players after Mitchell,there are none I see who are any better than him....anyway the point is that Aitken has burned us and Parker kept him quiet,a pretty good achievement.Aitken is a good centre, but not elite
I was waiting for your "I told you so" post 😉 ,it was a bit milder than I was expecting. RU OK? Are you mellowing a little or feeling the Easter cheer?Fair dinkum you numbnuts can waffle on ..... some of us have been saying that this kid can play football for 2 years ....
Yes he makes a mistake .... so does everybody else.
He has had 0ne ... yes 1 ... bad game ... a shocker ... but who hasn't ....
When you start to judge this kid on the facts ... 1) he is on a small depth contract 2) With a full squad he would be playing at Blacktown 3) he is a centre not a winger ..... you will start to see he is a valuable member of our squad ....
... and no ... he didn't suddenly become a good player ....

True, very few outstanding centres, Mitchell in a class of his own, miles ahead of all the restThat is why I said arguably,but outside of Mitchell,who is an elite centre in the modern game?He is in the next bracket of players after Mitchell,there are none I see who are any better than him....anyway the point is that Aitken has burned us and Parker kept him quiet,a pretty good achievement.
