Nowhere near good enough for who?

Using the championship as an example. I've been a supporter all my life of an absolute powerhouse side... who can't seem to go above 10th in the championship. He'd be a better option than our current right fullback or the 3 or 4 that went before him. Bailey Wright, James Meredith have all had successful careers in the championship at fullback, Grant is superior to both imo.

His age works against him, but to say he's nowhere near good enough is just bullshit. Seems a bit like an inferiority complex because he's an Australian in the A League.
