Wanted to know how Eveyone thinks his going, I noticed his now starting for the tigers which doesn't meant to much considering how they're going and went on the weekend verse the cows. Is he worst the 650 they paid.
also how many years did he sign for? Was it just the one? Cos if so it would be good to see parra try sign him again
cheers

he is getting paid on potential tigers offered more than we were willing to pay.
We put our faith in our 2 rep props and young Kafuasi
Add papi and Greig to the mix and I'd say as good as it would of been to devolp him all the way it's worked out well for us
Yes that is true
They didnt pay 650 a year, it was somewhere in the 200k's, not a lot more than we offered.
I was dirty when we lost him, we should have matched them or got closer, its hard to find guys that size.
He may well come back down the track, plenty of players over the years have leave us then come back.
Wasnt it $800k for 3 years, so $266k a year
Yes Browny, youre right, about 260kpa was what was reported at the time.
Think we were paying him a bit over 100k, so he left the club for a small amount in rl terms
Rudolph's not bad.
The club wanted to keep him, but the Tigers wanted him more. They paid overs, the Eels don't pay overs anymore. We have Kaufusi coming along nicely, plus Hughes & Hollis in the pipeline. He wasn't a must keep.
I think with the speed of the new rules, Utoikamanu's value has dropped as the bigger less mobile players are finding It difficult to push out the minutes. He doesn't really have the leg speed either
The athletic props us where it's at right now and Greig looks the athlete
Never been very impressed with him ,don't understand the hype about him ,will never be a great player in my opinion,not energetic enough.
Agree with the majority . Chalk and cheese comparing him and issaih . We got the better end for sure. I don't think he will develop that much more to be honest . Remember Pauli ?
