  • You can bet the sharks and roosters will be waiting
    • 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.

    • Is Vave 33 or 29? Different birth years shown on different sources
  • 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

  • My top 6 predictions may yet come to fruition. ;)
