This year will be pretty much a right off for the whole league, but if he cannot force a starting spot next year then he is probably never going to. Said the same about Cameron Smith at the start of thus season and he really stepped up this year and has been one of our best players. Hopefully his jaw heals quickly. Hopefully Mclelland steps up soon.

My thoughts too

Ageing Half backs moving to 13 Is a thing of the past, we may yet see a return to the ball playing 13 in the future at that may be Cameron Smith, but Lui will not move to 13

It would be only while Smith is out.

I agree but Mclelland has to be given a run of games which isnt going to happen unless Lui or Gale are injured for some considerable time.

Cam Smith had played around 40 games prior to this season. McLelland has played 4. Jeez people are so quick to write off young players on here.

Hes a talented kid, give him a chance. He needs game time tho i agree with that.

Halfback is the hardest position to come thru, there’s so much resting you your half, so any young kid is going to need some patience.
