Taking it a bit far for me that. His good outweighs the bad you mention. But it's good to see some1 pick up on it. I often think jeez at games when he gives away a pen. Or shoots the line or has a costly error. It's kinda weird. Him and michaels in most eyes are golden boys. Like for like Tala and Thompson get ripped on here and various forums for the same stuff in games
I'd defo give hI'm a new deal tho. Also he'll start doing less mins I imagine. I'd expect hadley back. Turgut looks every bit our 2nd row future so will possibly reduce his 'bad bits'
Personally come next yr I'd have him off the bench To raise tempo. Like how cas use moors n sene lefeo
I often say with Mini that if it was like American Football and we could take players off when defending, he would be a brilliant player. When hes actually in position to make a tackle he is ok, but he gets caught flat footed and squared up far too often for a man of his experience playing that position. Look at Westerman's try last week for a recent case in point. It blows my mind when I see people blasting Griffin or Talanoa for their defence whilst in other threads people are debating whether or not Mini would be in Hulls best all time team. He would only just make my first choice 17 from our current squad.
He wont be on a pittance and is a quota spot, so if it was up to me I would let him go, put faith in Turgut and Hadley, and spend his money elsewhere.
