I saw a little bit of this kid at the intra club and geez I think we've got one here. Don't worry about his size, he knows exactly where to go. Super brave and super skilled. Reminded me a little of Ken Hunter actually.

Round 1 smokey? If Clarko knows they have it hes not scared to play them.

He has it, but he won't play Round 1.

He's not as far off as some posters were worried about on draft night.

No chance for mine.

Hopefully if he puts on a little more weight and does really well at BHH, he gets a game in the second half of the season proper. Maybe Round 19 at Port... coinciding with Hinkley's sacking.

I reckon late next year.

 

[MrPremiership]

So, we didn't need to wait 3 years for his debut.......

[The Kipster]

Well done Will, all the best young man!

 

[threesixpio]

heck yeah. Can’t wait to see him. Prediction - he will have a pretty normal first game but will show at least one crazy awesome thing

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

This is a pleasant surprise.

 

[Brishawk]

The future. (Not to be mistake with Ryan burton who looked like the future but was actually trade bait for the chad)

 

[Judd2Sewell]

Clarko must have faith in his ability if he's picking him at his size. Exciting times.

 

[Mercy Seat]

Anyone seen him play in any of the practice matches? How’s he fared to date?

Human highlight reel....I assume

the early reports were that he has smarts and class and overcomes his light weight. Courageous also. I’d be telling him not to be too brave too early. Prefer he not get broken in his first season.

 

[Roger Rogerson]

Watched him in the intraclub. Moved really well and into smart positions. This will be a major step up for him but appears to have the class, just maybe a tad early but happy we are looking to fast-track him at the top level.

I wonder if the shorter quarters change the view of clubs in relation to playing youngsters? Maybe the penny has started to drop. Less game time equals less physical punishment. Can prob risk a few more youngsters this year.

 

[KermitJagger]

Happy to see that Will Day Will Daybut

 

[Judd2Sewell]

All class, smooth moving and has nice skills... Or so I've been told.

 

[Judd2Sewell]

I wonder where Clarko will play him, I assume out on a wing?

 

[Bugs1977]

I wonder where Clarko will play him, I assume out on a wing?

Yeah I reckon we might see Hendo moved to HB in place of where Scim was. Good luck to the kid wherever he plays.

Hope he gets the license to hit kicks through the corridor very nice kick on him.

Wishing the kid well, hopefully he can play in a win on his debut.

 

[MrPremiership]

Puts his body on the line despite his size. Classy user of the ball.

Has a very healthy dose of confidence.

 

[Lawsy]

He'd be nervous as shit right now but he'd have had his grandpa in his ear to settle the nerves. Hoping he shows what he's capable of with no expectations from me on him. He's a 1st year hawk and I just want the best for both him and Morris.
