Buy Tuiaki for 2012?

He won't be able to play next year but he'll be good for 2012. Looks like the Tigers won't offer him the money so why don't we offer him 90k or 100k for a year only. 2012. If he goes good we resign him with the salary cap cahnges due to new TV deal. He makes a decent winger and runs pretty hard and is good mates with Moimoi. Thoguhts?

  • I was looking at the big fella when I was sifting through the off-contract players for wingers/centres. Even $100k would be a lot for a winger who doesn't get on the field.
  • Why can't he play next year? Surely that injury isn't going to keep him out for 2 whole seasons?
  • he was the best winger in the NRL last year, so why not?

    but im not too fussed about 2012 atm
  • A name that i've heard been thrown around is Paul Whatuira *not sure about spelling*, i dont know if im keen on it if it's true.
    • Wasn't there a story about him turning a tad odd while overseas about a year back? A bit old too.
  • he might have to retire poor bloke
    • Yeah it'd be a shame for him to have to retire, he was an awesome sight when going well. Hopefully things turn around for him and his ankle heals properly and he gets a start somewhere.
  • A good back up at best i reckon but he would want to be on the cheap if they do buy him.
