You think David Fifita would join us to play off the bench ?
I agree he could potentially do plenty of damage coming onto the field after the first 20mins, but he seems to be someone who lacks self belief at times and I don’t think starting off the bench would help with that issue.

Cobbo would be a worth a good look at as his price has dropped a lot and can cover a few positions.

Taylan will most likely get a run-in cup this week and if he goes well, he will be back in NRL quicker them most think.

Papali would be a smart buy for our kids development as well

 

[batboy]

happy to give you the experience thing and yeah id say addo carr is better then skelton right now. Future remains to be seen.

As for Turuva they have similar stats across the board, including defence.

and ill concede that includes yardage returns. i guess the big question is was addo carr ever available for us because if not its irrelevant

Not sure how Turuvas Defence is being measured,
He's barely ever there, And certainly not quick enough to fix it.

 

[JB9918]

Luke Luailli for me to fullback.

Keep Mason at 14 & Latu to 6/7.

Roosters you could see Taylan May in & Doueihi to fullback... Could explain with he is in Cup this week.

Can't back on TDS being around.

We have options but Bula under the high ball is gold & he goal line defence is very good. Fair loss considering we loose Luai for Origin 3.

 

[Fish88]

Hmm Bula out for a month, smelling very spoony now 🙁

I’d have Turuva there over Mason any day. I remember the early days Turuva playing fullback, especially for Fiji and he did great.

 

[Needaname]

Wouldn’t that be nice.

I’d even take De Grout

Raymond Puru looked like another jack in the box off their fullback production line for Qld U/19’s also.

 

[fainty]

Any signings?!

Dafuq is this?

You've bought Cobbo, Papali'i and Fifita yet have considered keeping Seyfarth? 😂

Mason should have to go back to cup and learn how to tackle and prove he can for the remainder of this season after last week. Cost us the game

 

[The Chad]

Zyon Maiu'u on a development contract? Yes. There's something to work with there. But I wouldn't invest higher at this stage.

Bula out is depressing.

If Taylan May was ready to come in, I'd push Doueihi back there so he can defuse bombs.

Turuva, Lualili'i & Mason are all short...

Staines can't tackle.

I'd possibly look at Turuva at FB & bring in Tu'itupou. At least that offers us 2 powerful running options out wide.

 

[crazycat]

For you. For Joey. I'm sure he'd give it a pass.

Joey Johns is not going to be doing extras to coach us...

Why? His brother is probably going to coach newie. He will only come here if he knows Richo somehow OR we fire Benji and hire his Brother...

BTW dinn't Johns Coach or help coach Benji at one point as a 7? Also dinnit that totally fail?

 

[Blocktiger]

a 13 and another big middle with some legspeed on top of those boys and we're ready to run top 6.

I think we should go hard for cooper bai his only on a train and trial at Gold Coast. Very good young player.

matty johns in 2005 helped out with prince and Marshall

I did not know this. Interesting as they played a very unstructured pair in 2005.

I am talking later, say 2008. I remember Andrew Johns going " i know what he is doing wrong. I can train that kid Marshall".

 

[Tiger_Yoshi]

I mentioned this a few weeks ago, but it’s probably a good time to start filling the remaining top 30 spots.

We did upgraded Mason to top 30 last week.....I believe there are no more spots to fill

 

[Tiger_Yoshi]

Knights not interested in WT overtures to release KPP to us early...we never seem to get players coming our way eariler than the end of their contract..Dogs are the opposite

 

[Betterdays22]

Jahream Bula is set to miss 4 weeks of action due to a hamstring injury. Bula pulled up sore chasing a Jarome Luai grubber on the final play against Canberra.

Heath Mason is expected to return to fullback, with Latu Fainu likely to partner Luai in the halves

Hope Heath has kept up some reps under the high ball while he has been in the halves...
