      It's actually not insane. He's the best fullback in the world right now and he's only in his 3rd full season. He's 22 I think? He will be hall of fame and talked about for generations

      Part of where I'm coming from. He has enormous potential. With good health and physical fitness and the right people around him he will only get better. The physical side is there, and in spades. His footy brain and IQ for the game will only increase and he matures.

    Unpopular opinion but Brett Stewart was better than Slater. Look at the stats and tell me otherwise. Not to mention Billy played off Smith and Cronk. Only reason people don't acknowledge Stewart as the best is because he didn't get to play as much State of Origin games.

    No . He’s a very high risk player .
    Too excitable . amazing talent but he’s wearing too many hats .
    I’d like to be wrong about this however . He is very enjoyable to watch and has a huge talent and athletic physiology (crazy hyper extension athlete ) .
    but he needs to be a stubborn reliable defensive rock . ThAts what billy had . frustratingly well positioned and frustratingly consistent .
