Chocs definately matured as a player he'll be a major factor for the side in the charge to the semi finals.

Chocs definately matured as a player he'll be a major factor for the side in the charge to the semi finals.

Couldn't agree more. He's a much more rounded person than he was even at this point in the season last year. He's come along a huge amount since the start of the season.

Our most valuable forward, and I would debate he's our second most important player behind Snake.

Very true Will

We can use him in so many ways, running off an Orford ball with the right timing can be devastating, has the ability to punch holes himself, and the pace to make the breaks count, and is now also displaying a reasonable passing game as well

And not a single mention of his defence - which can also turn games. Just ask Crocker who he was sick of seeing line him up in Origin....

Tupou has had a pretty good season in a beaten side Cliffy, and Waterhouse is playing good as well, but none at his level

And it wasn't that long ago nearly every thread on here wanted him benched or dropped to Sunshine Coast, shows how quickly his form has picked up

Yep, he hurts blokes when he gets it right

The most under rated moment of last years GF was when Crocker ran the ball, Hall hit him, he dropped it and Watmough stands there and serves him up. I loved it

did you see some of the sharks forward get rid of the ball once they saw choc charging at them.

I am amazed at chocs ability!!!

All the doubters (supporters of other clubs) who cant stand him. Have changed their views on Choc. Now thats saying something as everyone HATES us!

You're right, all that bad stuff, penalties, dropped balls, seem to have been erased from his game.  What happened?  Is it all BK's doing?  Cows blood?  He must have been very tired on Saturday night and still played very well.
