Maybe this has something to do with us chasing the Souths lock , move our two on and pick up a 1st grade player in the making , just my thoughtsI have no idea whether they are staying or going, it’s all based on a post from Mistymuzzle.
The point I made previously is both are still very young for NRL level forwards despite turning 21 at some stage in 2024.
Therefore as it does for many others, it could have taken them the past season or two to really toughen up, mature and get used to the week to week grind of senior professional rugby league. It would be great to see how they both go in the first half of season 2024 before allowing them to head elsewhere.
Very similar situation with our even younger players, but I am of the belief it’s a much easier transition for backs and dummy halves to make the transition at a younger age as they are not constantly in the bash & barge like the forwards are.
We have already seen a massive improvement from Sione Fainu from last season to this season and I believe he turns 22 in 2024.e making
