Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Does anyone know much about Semisi Kioa in our cup squad. From memory he came up through the sharks system and he was highly regarded as one of the best juniors coming up if not their best prospect within the club throughout his HM and SG ball cup days, was destined for a bright future.

For anyone who watches the cup games often is he a chance at making a FG run? I saw the stat sheet for his last couple of games to end the season and it looks alright.
 
Chris Lawrence was still a schoolboy up against first graders. Alex Lobb is 21 and those tackle stats are while he is playing NSW Cup. Granted he is still young.

From what I saw, his D was nowhere near NRL standard. Would have had a large number of try causes through his channel in the latter half of season. I’d be very surprised if he is retained with Feledy coming up & hopefully another 1st team centre recruited.

defensively atrocious. one of those attacking beasts with little or no skill on the other side of the ball. would require a huge amount of work to get him where he needs to be.

Stefano is heavily chased by Canterbury and have even offered him a contract. Up to Stef what he wants to do

This guy is going to go down in history as the player with the most undeserved contract upgrades in history. Last time he was on contract for another year and the forum wanted him signed up for anything he wants. Has he delivered on that contract yet ?

His manager must be a genius.

I think it’s more an issue of roster space. We have guys in our starting 17 that should be depth and no roster spots to add anyone better.

Don’t know much about Mansfield but he might be a victim of circumstances.

As @batboy pointed out
We've wasted top 30 spots forever on guys that will never play

.. Will Kei comes to mind.

We've had Sione Fainu and Christian Manaima this year, don't even get a mention for first grade yet still are top 30.

Mansfield could be a good player if they back him.... but I agree, he should be a nsw cup contracted player until he's ready

I don't mind him but i agree he's overrated on here, not a fan of the clauses he has when he is part of the problem. An individual with a team clause i don't know why the hell we would agree to that.
I also don't like the origin clause especially if Gus is chasing him, hey Freddy don't pick Stefano ok Gus no worries.
