Chris Faagutu - Behind The Roar
BTR Pre-season Podcast: Chris Faagutu
Wests Tigers official podcast Behind The Roar is shining a light on some of the club’s younger players as pre-season training heats up over the summer.www.weststigers.com.au
Has dropped from 101kg to 97kg due to intense pre-season training. Sees himself more as a ball-playing middle than your typical Polynesn impact middle. I think the Club will progress him as a ball-playing prop (not lock) given our plethora of locks.
I think we will lose someone. Laulilii and Faagatu both too small for front row and both skilful enough for lock. Throw in Galvin if he goes down the lock path and something will give.
As far as pure lock goes, I would prioritise Laulilii. Physical speciman with aggression and nice skillset at the line. IMO he gets a fair bit of time off the bench in 24 he is that good.
