Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

The club should be doing everything to keep TDS. However if he leaves, Sandon Smith would be a good pick up to play 14. Covers hooker and dummy half. Although I doubt he would be open to coming here to play 14 when he will probably get offers from other clubs as a starting half or 9.

Does he cover any positions other than hooker or dummy half?

every dad and their dog has seen it

again if he was released for it - why would they re-sign him for two years after it 😂
and why is ZDC still at the club?

Not arguing that the video was the reason he was sacked but your timeline doesn't match up. He was extended before the video.

Fatialofa would be awesome. Creating competition doesn't block Pathways, it creates them.

Was talking to a mate who follows Warriors & their pathways very closely and rates Kayliss Fatialofa potentially as good as Leka Halasima. Even believes he could be given the opportunity to play centre & even wing to keep him in the system (with their umteen backrowers and UK Morgan Gannon coming). I hope we’re having a good look!

As you know I’ve been very keen on us potentially signing David Fifita as I strongly believe we need more speed and attacking threat on our edges, but I think signing a young up and comer with massive potential such as Fatialofa would probably be a much smarter signing as he would not cost near as much, he would not be guaranteed a starting position and would need to fight and prove his value to start ahead of Samuela Fainu on our left edge.
Alternatively we could start him on the bench and bring him into games with Samuela’s versatility to mix between an edge and the middle.
If Fatialofa is capable of also playing in the centres, that’s even better from a bench coverage point of view.
It’s rumoured we are in the race to sign him, let’s hope we do.

cant agree no matter how certain you are. Addo carr is handy but no more or no less handy then skelton or turuva. For the last 5 years we have been absolutely horrendous at yardage from our back 5. That is what we badly needed and that is what we went our and got. Addo car does not make our team better IMO. He is average at best doing the hard yards. Skleton and turva have been huge in that frame.

Out of curiosity what makes him better. Ill give you speed but what else

Experience, Footy IQ, Defence....
Skelton hasn't played anywhere near enough games to be compared to Addo Carr - And if we're going off their last outings, I'd suggest Skelton has a long, long way to go.
So would their last coaches you'd assume.

Turuva - who's played a few more games
- His kick return cartage is exaggerated here, But his defence is ordinary.
Addo Carrs communication in Defence isn't spoken on (Ever)
Maybe because he's so fast that's all anyone thinks he has to offer?
Turuva is a good finisher, Addo Carr can create something out of nothing,
I've not seen Turuva do the same.
