Have we...

...had a better second year player in the modern era?

I'm not sure, and the truth is i cbf'ed looking through stats to find another one. Heads a little sore today

BUT i am very very happy with the one we have, and believe we are only seeing the tip of the iceberg atm......Thank God he slipped as far as he did....

5 years down the track you could very well be asking:
Have we had a better player in the modern era?

But best to keep a lid on it atm.

How good was his pass to Lloyd was it?

He can do so many things, we haven't even seen him play up forward much yet, very exciting

We are talking about Ryder, right?

Ryder?

I clearly meant Campo

Hird and Mercuri in 93 are the only equivalents I can think of.

Below Hird (93) but above Mercs.

Going on that, we've got a very good player on our hands.

Hird wasn't a second year playing in 1993 though.

Not technically, second year since debut, but not second year in the system. I did think Hirdy when I made the statement.

Of the current bunch Stants has a pretty good second year, and Rama had a good 2nd year in a dominant team off the bench, but both behind Ryder i would say.

 

[Lance Uppercut]

no doubt in my mind he will be very, very special

How about the way he hassled Tuck out of the contest late in the last quarter. Beautiful stuff Paddy.
