Absolutely. That try was an aspect we haven't been able to experience enough but how bloody good to see that he has it in him. And still young enough to develop and do more. But yeah it was random when you think of his previous displays
Been seeing more and more of that left foot step that’s becoming lethal. Looks so peculiar sometimes how he jumps in the air when approaching a defender then quickly steps off it when he lands. Can distribute too, can recall that game where he almost pulled the game out of the fire against broncos a while back setting Montoya up, but unfortunately grabbed a jersey and the match winner pulled back
 
Testimonial game he leads the team out against the Broncos for his NRL 100.

Body language tells you a lot.

Pompey looks back at his team mates in a mark of humility that he is famous for and when the Camera tracks him in a close up as he runs on field he casts his eyes away and turns his back to the attention.

The quiet achiever is very much where this guy lives hey and in a era where we have all these cock sure young bucks coming through he is the type you want out there to balance the mojo of this team.

When fans bemoan his slowness, I see strength and character that offsets those shiny things fans love.

He's glue. Holds the parts together with his durability and endurance. Perfect team guy. Has his shortcomings but so does the 8th immortal and apparently you can have flaws and be a great player. Kudos if you can nail being great on and off the field.

Just watching that, man we’ve nailed the match day experience. Pompey though for me epitomises what hard work achieves. RTS came back and everyone was quick to expect him just to slot into the centre role without giving someone like Pompey the credit for how he’s become such a solid one on both sides of the field. Webster mentioned how hard he worked to get himself in favour at the club and I believe we’re about to see a real purple patch from him. I can recall a segment on a māori show more than 10 years ago when the roosters picked him up from Wesley college and he was awkwardly shy. He strikes me as someone who’s probably never been a confident person but watching him in recent times, I think he’s really got a belief in himself and feels a valued team member. Erin Clark has mentioned how he feels valued as something he’s really embraced upon his arrival and it’s plain to see what the coaching team are doing for the players
