Does anyone know how he has gone in any of the trials and if he will be playing much NRL this year?

"Rather Samrani! Does seem odd given the speculation of swapping him for old Barnett. Penisini can be really great at times and then really off at other times. Samrani has been very impressive and seems very strong and determined which is what Parra…"

"I really like Samrani but if JR decides to give him up for MB I think that is a massive mistake.
IMO Samrani should be 1st drop for either centre/ wing if one of our starters is out. Brian Kelly is bog average and not going to get better.

I didn't see any of the trials but with Edwards and Fa'aoso gone he should get some game time in the NRL when injuries occur. He doesn't have a top 25 NRL contract so he would be behind Jos Paulo, Pauli, Terepo and Gower for those bench positions. I'm not sure if the coach sees him as an edge forward or middle lock but other guys on this site would know the answer to that. From what I have heard he is a strong defensive forward.
He played with a lot of enthusiasm and speed against the Wests Tigers in th e reserve grade trial a few weeks ago.
I thought he was impressive from what I saw.
He was certainly hitting hard in defence in that Tigers trial, and he wasn't a slouch in attack either. I was quite surprised, not a first grade player week-in week-out but is certainly a good back-up.
Haha... not a slouch. Are you suggesting some of our players slack off at times?
Nope.
1. Lock or edge forward although he played lock in the Tigers trial
2. Titans
3. No
4. Depends how big the bowl is
5. The one 4/5 dentists recommend
