      • It has to be. Sucks for Mataele but also Brown has more upside unfortunately.

  • Congrats young fella, give em hell. 

    • BE, if he can kick on and hold a spot for the rest of the year, it can set us up for 2027 not having to worry about finding more middles. We still need one but if we had a pack of

      8. Signing*

      9. Da Silva

      10. Tuivaiti

      11. Williams

      12. Su'A

      13. Hopgood

      14. Smith

      15. Brown

      16. Paulo

      17. Kautoga

       

      Not a bad pack and bench.

      • Yep this is what I'd have and I'd be signing Spencer Leniu to partner Sam.

        This would require Paulo taking a team friendly deal. 

        Edwards and Samrani rounding out the bench. 

      • Who is this 8 Signing.. never heard of him

        Anyway who is left out there Sam Hughes??

        • Knowing our recruitment team, bank on Blake Lawrie to be our starting prop next year

  • Unless a prop (Morettti, Williams, Tuivati and Maetele) is injured, T Brown coming in would be Williams shifting to edge? And Williams has mostly covered right edge backrow.

    Kelma Tuilagi out? KT has come in for some critique, which after flying up to attend the Eels/Knights game, I wonder if that critique rests on watching Kelma amble his way back into the defensive line after kicks? He literally doesn't actually get back into position until about tackle FOUR. I can't see why Ryles would be saying to him "nah no worries KT, you stay unavailable until about tackle 4 or 5". How KT appears fatigued in defense given all that walking and staying offside for 3-4 tackles per set is beyond me

    • This could be the first time I've agreed with you Professor daz. Now I need a bourbon to get over it

    • Not sure Kelma drops out. But it makes sense too. I think Mataele makes more sense even though I feel it is a tiny bit harsh since he has been not too bad. But also I feel Ryles prefers Williams on an edge as well.
