"Not many left now."
"I think thats the problem. He is too good for NSW cup so we are trying to jut fit him into the NRL team somehow . But in reality he is not a 6 or a 9. Just a fullback right now. During the recent pre-season Papalii only spent time training with…"
"The chances of him being our 6 next year are very low, if he was a serious consideration he would be playing 6 now with dylan at centre. I'll be very surprised if he is our starting 6 next season unless he gets a lot more time there this season. "
"I think Joash is a good player, but from what I've seen only at fullback or on the wing. Those positions we've got pretty well covered, so I guess he's a great back up option. I'd like to see him in 1st grade, but I dont know how he fits in?"

I haven't heard anything about Sam Burgess. Maybe it's worth a look on youtube. You've got to wonder about the logic behind trying a player from the ESL. Most of the time it doesn't work. Ellis came to Australia with huge expectations but hasn't seemed to do too much for the Tigers. It will be an interesting experiment if it works.
You know the guy has talent when he's playing in the backrow for Great Britain at 18, and he is still only 20 now, so he is still atleast another 5-6 years off his peak as a forward, if not longer.. I really think he would be a star in NRL, he has aggression and technique, and he will only get better when he's playing in the best competition in the world..
Steve Menzies has been around long enough to notice a good player and if Beaver rates him, then that's a pretty solid recomendation.. In regards to Gareth Ellis, if you ask any tigers fan they have been really impressed by him and hold him up there with their best players this season, they really value his work ethic and skill.
Ben Smith, Roughly the same as Sam Burgess Bwahahahahaahahaaaaaa!!!
