SP PNG Hunters utility Trevor Solu is player to watch for this round 16 of QRL CUP, featuring six times so far, this regular season and is quickly garnering a reputation as a dynamic impact player.
With two tries and two assists from his six appearances so far, Solu is providing real X-factor. for the Hunters midway through the contest.
Spending most of his playing time at dummy-half or through the middle third, Solu’s ballplaying and support game has been a standout over the last few games.
He’s got a wonderful feel for the game and great vision, giving him a knack of popping up in the right places and at the right times.
Solu did a wonderful job to support Morea Morea last week against the Falcons, collecting a late offload to dive over beside the uprights and extend the Hunters lead.
He is still learning his game and is a work in progress at QRL level, but Solu has shown in limited opportunities so far that he is a genuine player of the future.
He will share the hooking role with Judah Rimbu again this week against the Capras and can be a real point of difference around the ruck in how the Hunters work upfield.
