Yep. You need your depth players to be versatile. Its why Russel is so valuable right now. It really helps in building a strong and well rounded top 30. One thing about Havilii, as a middle he has a well known trait off always finding his front when being tackled. He very rarley gets put on his back.
It's actually not a bad signing. Play middle and hooker if both smith and da Silva go down. Plus got the ball skill ryles looks for in his middles. Being 32 is fine, especially these days. 36 id be worried
"MOMENT OF THE YEAR: . I just can't get passed a player that I thought looked out of place, even in Local Footy. Sean Russell and his chip and chase for try. Mind Blown ! well done Sean.
DISSAPOINTMENT OF THE YEAR: I have 2 - Certain players in…"
"For the right price the signing makes sense. Play some middle and be the 3rd string hooker if required. 32 is fine for a forward. If he was 36 I'd be more worried "

This signing will push us into top 4 contenders next year
To be fair, the way the comp is , it wouldn't shock me to see us sitting 1st at seasons end in 2026. It all comes down to what the NRL want.,
If the NRL decides why not have Parra become a dynasty like Penrith? The amount of money they make on our fanbase and ratings?
If its in zero tackle then it must be true
Could be worse he could be 33
Bloody rubbish signing if true

Blake Wilson on his way to Manly. Is Jason Saab or Talau on the outer? Hmmmm
Is there something to this or just pure speculation? Koula would be huge!
