WHAT WAS SAID
Rugby League Immortal Andrew Johns declared Nathan Cleary as ‘the best player in the world’ and said he can take his game to a new level.
It was around the early 2000s when I thought I got to that level. I was about 25 or 26, Nathan is the same age. The next four or five years, fingers crossed he stays injury free, you are going to see a different player. You are going to see a player totally elevate himself in the game. So the ceiling, who knows where he gets to. Who knows how good he can get.
