He's always had the potential to be. He really went to another level last year and it's carried on. He'd be the best backrower in the world if he had stronger defence IMO.
I liked the way he played in this year's Four Nations series. In the NRL, he has been trying to do too much, thinking he's an extra 5/8th or something at times, even though he's clearly not. For Australia he just did what he does best, run with the ball like a nigga carrying a bucket of chicken.
