      • Agree Poppa

        I just hope our prudent approach to recruitment continues and that we don't pay overs. 

        I want to see recruitment balanced with junior development

  • Newcastle were in the box seat for him - before nathan brown got sacked.

  • I think David Fafita is the missing ingredient for a Premiership winning pack and I desperately want him. I wouldn't want to spend money on a mid-level second-rower to miss out on an elite second-rower. So yeh it depends on the money. Niokore is pretty close to a starting second rower. I don't know if I agree with Pops that you need four first-grade quality second rowers - I'd rather three very good ones, and then look to use a young bloke like Fainga if you get an injury crisis. 

    What we need to look at, is that Parramatta with our junior nursery should just be rolling second-rowers off a conveyor belt. You don't necessarily need to find giants - just powerful, good-sized bodies who can hit a hole. Centre, wing and second rowers we should be investing in marquee and relying on youth to back-up. 

    • Totally agree, he was the player i chose a few years back as the type of Alpha we need to lift the club.

      Edit, my mistake, i was thinking of Andrew not David, but David would be good too.

      Id love Andrew fafita here.

      • Nah..don't forget we've implemented a "no dickheads" policy at Parra ever since Norman and Edwards were shown the door.

        Andrew Fifita is a massive one. Having a player on our roster that's venerates a cowardly cold blooded murderer and then threatens teenage refs in junior games? No thanks.

         

    • 1EyedEeel, 

      David Fifita won't be available until 2021 We need immediate replacements Manu Ma'u , Tim Mannah and possible replacements for David Gower, Peni Terepo . 

      I don't like R.C.G. as he will be expensive and does not have a high work rate. We should be careful not to sign players thar are being offloaded by other clubs for non financial reasons. He is also a bench player

       

    • Apparently Warriors are going to make a big play for David Fifita. As much as I agree with you, I’m not sure it’s smart to get ourselves into a bidding war with this guy if the Warriors are willing to pay a mil.
