  Elevated to the top 30 and extended until the end of 2027.

  Fantastic news.

    I feel like Iongi is the one they really have to lockdown long term. To near 2030 if possible. Great talent

  I could see him being that Walker type for us. If you see him in lower grades he did play some back-row. Not saying he should play back-row but I'm saying he's better suited to a Lock type role in the middle where he can run, watch his Flegg highlights bloke can run in open space.

    Yep. I can defintely see Ryles adopting a similar system to B.Smith - Grant in Melbourne. Ryley plays the first 25, then moves to lock, allowing TDS to come on against a tiring defence.

    Maybe late in the halves when teams are tired. At 84kg he needs to hit the all you can buffet before he plays much lock or back row.
