He is 26 and hasn't cracked it yet, how would he make our side better?
We already have AJ, TT, AD, Gildart, JTJ, Toa who can play center and would be comparative.
Be a waste of cash & not how we should fill our last roster spot.

Feels like a case of the heart ruling the head. Idk if people just think he’s a good dude, but as a footballer, he’d be at another club playing first grade if he was decent. There are better options out there.

Wouldn't write him off just yet maybe needs a proper shot.

You blokes don't make sense. Sit there being critical of him but happy to have blokes like junior tupou and William Kei in top 30.

LOL I wouldn't have Kei in my top 30 squad, think it's a wasted spot.

Tupou is about the future, the kid can still play Flegg, has speed/agility and is already bigger than any of our other backs. He is a longer term focus player. Have no issues but he isn't NRL ready.

You want us to get better but prefer a fringe 1st grader who won't actually make us better and has played for the Storm but yet doesn't have anyone knocking on his door. If we added Seve it shows we are wanting the spoon for a few years.

Both those guys are 19 and 21 respectively. Still have time to develop into being better players than Seve turned out to be. You’re dying on the hill of a 26 year old whose only played 20 games.

Thanks for your expert opinion. 👍
 
George Jennings and Reimis Smith, 2 bog average first graders before they got to Melbourne have improved their game and cemented spots in that team.

He's a player that took 4 years after leaving us to crack first grade. That's not a loss. He was a long way from first grade when he signed with us as a junior.

Such a shame, we got all the stars from that keebra side yet none of them kicked in to be first graders
 
Tedesco, Moses etc.. they all wanted to leave. JAC hurts because he wanted to stay but we were too unorganised to keep him. Was JAC the one where the CEO was on a holiday and his contract was in his drawer but never signed? Or was that Beau Ryan?
