Purely being devils advocate here,because I’d drop him too but he scores tries,sucks in defenders every time he’s in possession which creates space elsewhere and was also I believe the top metre maker against Leeds. But it’s how you weigh what he offers offensively against the horrendous defending. From a team perspective it must be soul destroying to be putting in all that effort only to see someone cock it all up. And every offensive coach will be targeting him now,useless under the high ball,can’t defend either shoulder and has the turning circle of a barge. He’s a bit long in the tooth to be improved significantly but a note of caution the same Aussie journos that criticised Rava’s defence capabilities were no more complimentary about Valamei.
