That's what I always thought about pompey but guess he's kinda proved me wrong- could still see it happening in the future but probably not here as we have so many young edge forwards coming through.

Depends eh.
He has footwork and is a unit, and most of all he plays tricky.
A center like that can work very well depending on the make up of the back line.
If this club some how gets Metcalf and Linane on the same field - AKP on this blokes three quarter line, he doesn't need pace provided he is Very well rounded in every other metric.
Imagining we get the new Baby All Black kid in at fullback or someone similar with pace and this guy just needs to be a distributor that bothers the defensive line - all short range weaponry.
Elite defence, with some big hits thrown in, an appetite for bullying his opposites will get him an incumbency.
He looks like he likes to throw it around, same kind of street knowledge Peta Hiku made a career of without being fast....this blokes got a bigger frame than Peta.
Lastly on the pace thing, remembering we are going to have forwards eventually that can score Try's from the half way....,we have a very fast (for forwards) pack coming through, Leka being the ultimate.
Thanks for posting this Viking.
1. Warriorholic is a legend for keeping us up to the minute with all warriors news and especially all the young talent coming through.
2. Love how the holic gets the guys to open up and let us know more about the inside workings of Our team.
3. Kahu gave great insight into the culture that Webby is instilling into the Warriors.
4. Love how Kahu explained how everyone is treated at the same level and has a say.
5. My first senior game at 18, I was scared shitless until our enforcer pulled me aside and said " If anyone touches you I will kill them".
6. I felt invincible and scored two tries.
7. This culture will win us the premiership (unless the TAB defends their position)
