The club is also looking atRaidershalfback Sam Williams to add depth to their play-making ranks..

"We have a tough first few games against Storm, Broncs and Panthers but some very winnable games against Dragons, Tigers and Tits. I'd be content with 3-3 and over the moon with 4-2 given how we started last year. "

"As always Poppa, i love your tribute to Semi....and he deserves it. what a star. That is an excellent idea to enlist him as a Ambassador and scout in his region. His profile as the Great that he was would be of untold benefit to our club. Relay that…"

Mitchell Moses hey. Was he spotted at El Jannah's or something?

I guess that qualifies you as being Lebanese.

  I think Benny Elias is his uncle or something so he could be Leb.

  Mitchell Moses is the nephew of Benny Elias who is of Lebanese heritage. Funny joke though..

  He frequents the Lebo restaurant in Balmain a lot - that should qualify him.
  
  And the food is bloody good to boot.
