19yo Magpies SG Ball winger Ofele Lene has signed a 2 year contract with the WT according to his manager Lombardi Sports Management on Instagram. I assume it's a Pathways contract or Jersey Flegg contract.

Any good? Saw that highlight in the past where he dodged a hundred tackles before giving it to Dotoi at the speed of sound.

Very quick, but also quite short.

best player comp I can give is to Brian To'o, but I don't think he has the same level of potential. short, stocky youngster with a decent amount of speed and power that has a good quick play the ball and can score a try. defensively and under the high ball he needs work but I guess he's now got two years to work at it!

Need help from those who have seen a lot of our junior reps this season. Do we have an outside back coming through who is tall, fast, agile & can score freakish tries (much like a young Selwyn Cobbo or Tyrone Munro)?

Are Riley Oitmann or Paul Johnson candidates?

Clearly someone is

That number 4 for Manly who missed a tackle on Lene was Josh Feledy!

It is good to see the heat being applied to Souths now...Pride of the league indeed....worst take in the history of rugby league in my opinion.

Heamasi Makasini. stupidly quick for his size.

if anyone knows what a loser is it's me.

I don’t think anyone disagrees with this.

 

[Tucker]

Really?!? He is currently assistant coach at Hull FC who are coming 9th and are 10 from 22. Bringing the best players back to coach isn't how we are going to win. Everyone just likes the idea of it ....

I agree. One of the biggest perceived problems with this club has always been that it has been a boys club….run by a cabal of players.
Now everyone is retired, we want to get them all back as coaches and administrators?
Bullshit to that. We already have too many.

Like we've had success with external culture being brought in.

Bringing back a bunch of blokes who choked out successive finals campaigns a dozen years ago will help how exactly?

 

[Jedi_Tiger]

Never wanted to join us... except that part where he negotiated with his manager to join us.

on 600k a year he signed a bad deal he could get 700k or 750k now if on open market. I can't see Stefano leaving but Ice absolutely I can see him heading back to parramatta

I'd take finals at this stage.

True. They’re still 2 years away Id say
