  • Good luck to him and he'll be back again...I think...

  • Best of luck to the kid. Hope the change in scenery is good for him.

    Not concerned he is gone though
  • Yeah I have mixed feeling about this....
  • ONE BIG MISTAKE
  • Good luck Kelepi
    We definitely made the correct call with Teapai, Jnr, Pauli and Terepo as our upcoming forwards They have more to offer over Kelepi.

    Finding a position for Kelepi has always been the problem; as he's a little short for prop and hasn't the pace or lateral movement in defense for the back row.

    Will be a good impact player off the bench for the Cowboys.
    • his defence was an issue

  • He's very injury prone just like Loko was. But he's a good footy player.
    Still a Shame he's going but
  • Talented kid and I've enjoyed watching him come through the ranks but with the recent emergence of some of our other young forwards, there's just no room for him anymore unfortunately. 

    • I think Kelepi will slay them with the Cows and good luck to him.

  • RLW rookie team of the year CURSE continues for Parra!
