He hasn't lived up to those heights just yet.
Obviously, he started the season injured.
He's been back for six or seven weeks now.
Yeah, I'm still a believer, but I'm not as confident as I was at the start of the season for sure.
He's getting through a lot more defensive work than what I anticipated for, you know, obviously what you're paying him, all that sort of stuff.
Like over the last, you know, five weeks since he's been back playing full minutes, 41 tackles, 35, 41, 51, 41.
I thought they'd use him more as- Moses Liotta fishing that, yeah.
But he is playing big.
I'm starting to wonder if, like, does he need to be playing 65 minutes?
Yeah.
I'm interested to see the sort of minutes he was playing up at Newcastle last year.
Give me a minute, I'll find it.
Damn well, Neil.
Shut up.
We're flying.
We're flying.
So last few years, yeah, Newcastle last year averaged 55 minutes, 51 the year before that, up to 63 minutes per game later.
Thompson at the moment, I think it's over.
Yeah, well, it's going to be interesting because Seward will be in those shoes, yes.
If the reports are true this week, sounds like Billy Slater's a good chance to be the next coach down there.
