Back to this point from MTB:
- Dearden vs Croft:

“I am looking at different combinations at my training sessions and I will make a final decision next week. Tom and Brodie are neck and neck at this stage. Tom did some good things in the trial last week but Brodie was also very good so I have a tough decision to make. It’s a good headache to have because you want players competing for positions.”
I still have very high hopes for Croft. He showed so many glimpses of just what he can be. That WCC game he played before the 2018 season was amazing! He has also shown his potential a number of times in the NRL, so it is not like he had/has a one game flukey performance. The skills and game is there. Still only 23 years old he seems like he needs a bit of defensive training and some confidence to go along with a full year of footy to get him on the right foot. I hope he can find a place somewhere... Tigers, Roosters (to an extent), Warriors could all be good destinations who need an out and out 7.
When I watch him play lately it just seems he has this huge chip on his shoulder and so much pressure on him to do something amazing. Would love to see him get his head right and just play his game. I feel he could really suit the Broncos system with guys like Riki, TPJ, Haas, Carrigan, Staggs and Milf around him.
