it's streets ahead of what we've had previously. here's our first and second string sides sat next to one another.

1. Bula – Mason
2. Turuva – Staines
3. To'a – Faataape
4. Olam – Naden
5. Skelton – L. Laulili'i
6. Galvin – L. Fainu
7. Luai – Doueihi
8. May – K. Laulili'i
9. Koroisau – Hope
10. Pole – T. Johannssen*
11. Sa. Fainu – Porter
12. Seyfarth – Sukkar
13. Twal – Matamua

14. Da Silva – Falls*
15. Hunt – N. Johannssen*
16. Bird – Rahme*
17. Si. Fainu – Broederlow*

Remaining players: Lobb, Saukuru, Craig, Feledy, Makasini, Tumeth

I think we're probably short a gun backrower and another for depth, a right centre, and a solid, experienced middle forward. we're not far off.

The problem with our depth is that they are good for cameo appearances only currently. That will change as they get older/more developed but until then, if they are required to string games together in NRL, theyll struggle.

Solid work @jrtiger I now reckon Tristan Hope is the #14 understudy after last week and being named this week.

4 backrowers? 😅

U left the 2 part off

Not a chance. He is behind TDS and Fainu.

I think we'll be alright for outside backs and spine cover, it's simply the forwards, namely the back row. we're an injury away from having Sukkar on the bench.

 

[The Chad]

Signing Molo makes little sense.

May, Hunt, Twal, Sione Fainu, Pole & Seyfarth with Johannssen becoming available to play later in the year should be enough to get us through. I'd have another little sniff at Frizell. If the Knights want to keep KPP, Frizell's money & spot could be used to sign him up.

 

[Bigscreentv]

I’d sign a strike centre or backrower.

 

[The Chad]

Another name I'd put in my book would be Jayden Hunt. If Madge isn't letting Hetherington go, Hunt is sitting way down the list at the Broncos. Looked really good the other day in their trial.

he was certainly impressive. one to keep an eye on.

 

[Dennisspicer1]

if you could lose klemmer and get Stef back yes please

No No no no no.

 

[gregjm87]

I disagree I think Twal is one of our better defenders

I think he is one of our better tacklers but an ordinary defender.

 

[Canadian Club]

Gus mentioned that the Warriors are calling around looking for outside back depth. We should be offering someone like To'a for one of their many backrowers. They've got Jackson Ford, Niukore, Capewell, Laban, Vaimauga and Halasima.

 

[426Tlgerland]

No No no no no.

Can’t see us going for another prop , Klemmer is a pretty consistent forward and if he end up at the dragons he will go ok , we won’t release Klemmer to buy Steph or molo , I think we would go another back rower or centre specially if Olam is a dud

 

[426Tlgerland]

Yep and a good size back rower. 191 and 110 kg , border line prop with speed , played lock as well , maybe tigers already got the sniffer out

 

[Needaname]

I wonder if Jacob Host is an option if Molo ends up at the Bunnies?

 

[Tigerdazz2]

With Klemmer supposedly going to the Dragons, what chance WT get Molo?

It might be better than last year …is that a high bar ?

Talk me through the centres and second row depth …13 …Matamua… what has he done ? we might be Toa and Naden starting centers Round 1 ..

The wing depth doesn’t look great either …is Luke L out for 12 weeks as rumoured ? We got Lobb up next ?

Our front row depth looks atrocious.

Thank god, it could have been us. More than a few here wanted us to take the chance on Schuster

Just another Polynesian that plays footy because he is a big body but doesn't have a love for the game. You're getting paid millions to play a bloody game what more motivation would you need these players are so out of touch with the real world and how hard it is to earn a lot outside of footy. I hope we don't experience the same issue with May.
