There's an old saying: you never knock a champion.
And we saw exactly why when James Tedesco starred in the Roosters' season-opening win over the Broncos in Las Vegas.
Brad Fittler made some comments about Tedesco last year when the Roosters were really struggling. He said when the team is not going well, Tedesco tries too hard. He stands at first receiver and tries to play like a half, he's taking hit-ups like a front-rower. He's trying so hard to find a glimmer of space he runs across the field and can cramp his support men.
I agree with everything Freddy said.
