Does anyone think that Booj was actually signed to become a first choice inside centre?
He's a signing that I felt was to add depth. A probable 3rd choice, selection from the championship.
He was already in his mid/late 20's when he joined us, so I doubt we were expecting him to grow as a player much more than he already had.
There's exceptions to that, such as Guy Thompson. However, on the while it's very rare for a player to make a significant step up in ability when they're in their mid 20's.
I think we signed him for squad depth, but that he's had to perform a more significant role.
I think he's actually quite solid for someone that you'd typically expect to only have to call on occasionally
