Talau is so below standard.Anyone who thinks Talau, who is obviously in favour (sarcasm), is ahead of Naden, Doeuihi, or even Toa, needs to find an inpatient rehab clinic ASAP! Cannot even beat a broken JTJ into the team.
Have nothing against him, but its an obvious pecking order issue.
Much the same as Liddle... if he was the future, we wouldnt have singed Api. Api wasnt signed to play second fiddle to Jacob, could be upgrade, could be injury toll, who knows, but Simpkin is the back-up, on financial grounds alone. Havent even talked Rua...
Nuffa, Pauga... neither warrant their paycheck, different levels and all. Neither effective on a dollar cost/outome ratio either, for different reasons.
Shouldn't even see first grade. Same as Pauga.
