That play when Mitch Owens won the ball out of a contest in the 2nd on the 50m line. Fmd. What strength! Imagine what he's going to be in 3,4,5 yrs time
The thing about Sharman I don't get is why pick him now? We had a chance last year and the year before and we didn't pick him. There's nothing he's done since 2019 that would get him picked. Very strange
