"Yea. Given Williams & Kautoga are the NRL backrowers. Latu, Samrani, Tuilagi, Guymer will be in cup. Then got Jezaiah, Lewis, De Stradis, Lokeni etc fighting as well"
TCT posted that a source has told them Simmo will stay with the eels. Simmo commened on the post essentially confirming that is true.
"Yea there's also a lot of competition for back row spots in that cup side so it may make sense to give him time in flegg while we see how the other non flegg boys develop "

Sharks don't want him. He's a forward under 30.
I don't know that I'd be making comments like that one Super, given our history of signing over 30s forwards in recent years ....
How many forwards over 30 have we signed? Beau Scott, Vave and Watmough in the past 6 seasons?
T-Rex - 29
Mannah - 30
Vave - 33 (31 when we signed him)
Matagi - 30 (28 when we signed him and now overseas)
Evans - 26
Terepo - 26
Tepai - 22
Alvaro - 25
Ma'u - 29
Niukore - 22
Gower - 32 (28 when we signed him)
I've maintained that anyone claiming we have some kind of retirement home for ageing forwards is complete BS and someone looking for a lazy excuse as to why we've struggled this year.
Ive thought all along we are a good chance to get him, id not be suprised if you are right here Tone
I don't know if he will make our squad unless we lose Vave and possibly a couple of our backrowers.
Paulo, Mahoney, Tapau
Lane, Moreoa
Brown
Reserves
Nuikore, Mannah, Alvaro and a Utility is a handy pack indeed except it means no Vave,Mau and Evans.
I think you need a spot for Terepo as well
He specifically said "may yet come" poppa....context mate :)
