He was four months in the horizontal, on his back.<\/p>\n \u201cFor him to get back and get on the field, we thought it was really important for his confidence that he had a game in the NRL today.<\/p>\n \u201cI thought he held himself up really well against a really good opposition in Taylan May… it\u2019s really good for Carter going forward.\u201d<\/p>\n Hasler also explained he was confident that Gordon has the talent to be a regular NRL player, with the likes of Will Warbrick and Mark Nawaqanitawase enjoying successful code switches.<\/p>\n \u201cI think what you saw tonight is that Carter can play NRL, he can play at that level and that he\u2019s competitive,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n ‘That’s on me’: Benji owns Tigers’ fade | 02:42<\/p>\n MORE NRL NEWS<\/p>\n \u2018LACK OF CLASS\u2019: Stoic Flanno concedes Dragons key issue after season fade-out<\/a><\/p>\n \u2018BEST IN THE GAME\u2019: Robbo marvels at Teddy\u2019s evolution as Roosters answer critics<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>
