Can see Starford Toa & Taylan May being the starting centres for first grade in 2026, maybe towards the end of this year.

Krystisn Mapapalangi
Heamasi Makasini, as depth.

As mentioned countless times,
Naden and Feledy, let go.

AD? Not sure what the plan is with him.
Fataaape? Possibly cup contract.

Need a few options for back up.

Large would be playing GPS rugby. Ashton Large was playing outside centre for Scots today vs Newington. Makasini was playing on the wing for Newington. Onitoni wasn’t in the team. Must be injured.

Did Makasini play yesterday for Newington @Wiz ? Would probably mean he’s not in final 17 for U19 SOO on Thursday.

Black and White are our club colours
Wearing them we're brave and bold
And the only time we'll change them
Is to put on green and gold.

Nothing there about wearing a poncey blue jumper to get a TV station some cheap ratings.
Bring Jarome home!

With Taylan May coming in,
Krystian Mapapalangi realising his greatness,
& Makasini not far off....

Centre is looking alright.
Probably need another option or two for depth as Starford Toa is very injury prone and AD no guarantee of staying.

Not a fan of Feledy, Naden and Fataape is as described.

I think we are short at least one centre, perhaps two.

Sensational stats. from Kit.
People on here get obsessed with height. I'm not sure why a prop has to be tall, we're not playing basketball. Give me a bowling ball type like Kit who's gonna make 12 plus metres every time he touches the ball, and bend the line with his post contact metres over a tall weak twig like a Klemmer every day of the week.

What’s also impressive from Kit is his ability to find his front & elite play the ball speed, yesterday avg 2.75s. Taateo also good at this I’ve noticed.

Hunt is either busted or heading to the retirement gate fast.

From those stats, Hunt should be dropped from State Cup side.
How many tackles in 33 min? And tackles missed?

Maybe being short means more concussion injuries? Wacked in the head by taller FRF?

I agree.

Starford Toa
Taylan May
Heamasi Makasini
Krystian Mapapalangi

Definitely need some back up options for 2026, not Naden calibre though.
Click to expand...
To’a has proven to be injury prone and we are not yet sure if Taylan May will return to his best form, Mapapalangi is showing signs of being a very good versatile low cost back up, but Makasini has not yet played above u/19’s level, so no guarantee he will be ready for NRL next season.
This being the case we need at least one more NRL centre option, we just need to work out if we target a big name, or an emerging or lesser known player as more of a gamble that it will work.
I know it’s been reported that Jojo Fifita is re-signing with the Titans, but I have not yet seen it confirmed and I’d be making every effort to try and sign him before it’s too late.
