OFFICIAL Fainu Brothers.

Given one brother is already in jail...it is fairly clear these blokes do not have a lot of brains, nor do they learn.

You would think the older brother's jailing might have helped the younger ones grow up faster.

No excuse for that driving record and it is often ends in innocent people being hurt or killed.

Unless he grows up quickly, we may have made a significant error buying him. Lots of stories as to why Manly released them are now adding up...

Awful a lot of generalisation. Do you know the other two brothers?

No generalisations.

It is fact one brother is in jail. If you saw the case, it was overwhelmingly obvious...yet he took no responsibility.

It is fact Samuela has a shocking driving record. It is a fact he lost his license and still went driving and speeding days later.

I am tired of people defending driving records...this is why you see morons arrested for hurtling down a street and wiping out families.
 
He is silly for what he has done, however he is not alone as a young kid making poor choices.
Probably made it easier to sign with us as it is easier to get a lift to Concord than Narrabeen from Western Sydney.

We have had a few in the history with Musgrove and Blore of recent times but we need to remember if they were not in the NRL, would it have been in the local rag let alone the TeleCrap.

$4m also is such a headline grabber for click bait that was for both brothers and for four years 😂😂😂

It is a generalisation because you branded all the brothers as the same.
 
This is a classic tigers signing.
Does anyone honestly think that one of the top clubs that values character would have looked at these guys?
Of course not, not the tigers.
As they say, shop at the tip, you bring home trash.

If they supported their Brother, In him pleading not guilty for the bleating obvious...
Then maybe the generalisation is just.
Plenty on here giving it to Aloiai for supporting him...

Don't see the correlation. Supporting your brother doesn't make you your brother.
 
Didn't say it did....
But backing a bloke that stabbed someone who's saying he didn't when you know he did
takes a 'special' type of character.

It's his brother though. At the same time you'd think he'd admit it.

My opinion is that someone being loose off the field is a massive negative and it has no correlation to being a tough player. I actually think the people that go down the wrong path are typically less tough than the people who grind out their lives and don't do as much stupid stuff.
 
Remember we've got a bunch of quiet hard working types. We need more aggression and power. Such players often need to learn how to control the aggression and decision making processes.
Working much closer to home with a bunch of his brothers Will men he won't need to drive, even when he can...

A group of choirboys are no good for a rugby league club.
Rugby League is an extremely aggressive game, therefore most of the high quality players are wired a little differently and live life on the edge which fits in with their aggressive nature.
Of course when becoming a high profile player with an NRL club they have to quickly mature and abide by the values of the NRL itself and the club they represent.
The ones serious about a long NRL career will quickly learn from their mistakes and mature.
I think it’s very judgmental to write off young players who make mistakes in their personal lives while young, give them a chance to grow up and mature.
 
Benji will put support systems around him and I'm sure he'll come good.

You need to cater to the culture a little bit too. Islanders respond to different things, as do Aussies and other ethnic groups. Benji is a good man manager from all reports, but if the kid continues down that path, he will be sacked like so many other promising kids.

He's on a good contract now, so he can afford a place closer to training and uber everywhere until he gets his licence back.

Could not agree more.
