Quote ="Roddy B"If Joel had more pace he'd be frightening. He has impeccable timing and he reads play quicker than almost any winger I've seen. Before the ball is in Lee's hands he'll make his run, by the time it's in Joel's hands he'll be mid-dive over the line. Like his brother, he out thinks opponents, his strength does the rest and his hands are so safe, he makes really hard things look so easy it's easy to overlook him.
I remember watching Joel for the raiders quite a few years before he arrived here (around when he was playing Origin/Aus), he looked a lot quicker then than he did when he came here, he was at centre then as well. Has he had any bad knee injuries?'"
He trashed his knee during his spell at the Roosters, pretty sure he was out for about a year.
