Samuela Fainu #280

[Rugba]

This is why the club is shit , two sets of brothers running the show . Signing schuster and going for manese to keep them happy . Now just need the 3rd may brother and it will be a take over , similar when a player manager has a club by the balls

 

[Bellend]

keep forgetting about schuster, geez he was good at manly.
I'm just not sure if samuela goes we should be resigning latu fainu

with Schuster it all depends on the Head been right, we do not need to rush him.

if right here is a good option

You would have to think of we lose Sam we will than lose others and the club will hit lows that even our supporters could not of imagined

The last 15yrs would've been mild in comparison

 

[Tucker]

They cant talk to him until november 1 though right?

With some luck we wrap the brothers up in the next week or so

He would be silly to sign on here before at least seeing what else is out there.
$800k here v $800k plus endorsements there tax free….we can’t compete.

 

[hybrid_tiger]

If he wants a good career he should sign elsewhere.

I think the players can see this.

Depends how important family is to him. Living in a compound vs the freedom to walk freely in australia.. whats that worth?

He should sign for a club with a real coach.

I agree, just will be surprised if he signs here quickly without looking first….unless he already has?

Well then he’s gone.

Probably not the week anything is going to get done, but anyone have updates on the status of negotiations with our king of khod?

Does he play lock, he used to be able to ball play we maybe in the market and does he know anyone here that could be a deal builder?

You can rolll out the red carpet for him and throw rose petals as he walks - he’ll obviously make you his his financial advisor.
Who said we can’t compete?

From what we know, the Fainu's are very family orientated. Sione has re-signed with WTs which is a good sign.

His manager is suspended bro . I feel like this is a pretty key point right now

Who is his manager?

 

[Lestronge]

Who is his manager?

Mario Tartak, got suspended for trying to sign up 14 year old. I think there’s more too it though . Like he was doing stuff for the family etc. I don’t think it’s as parasitic as it sounds. From all reports Mario truely looks after the guys he signs.

If Sam Fainu signs at PNG or elsewhere for 2028 … they gotta keep him here to see out his contract all of 2027 … other clubs seem to be able to manage this fairly easily

If we lose Sam I think that'll do me for a while....
