That's true, so to put him in the class of the Aussie pack or Pacifics are drawing a long. No doubt an upgrade, though.

Sorry, I must of missed it. You said he's better the a couple of international hookers. I haven't seen where you have said he is a better player then someone from the other four international packs and their reserves. He's going to make our team better but going on his stats and performances...

Relax man. To me, atm, KPP is only an international by name but not ability. Go and have a look at his PCM and tackle bust stats compared to these other guys? He isn't better the any of the players, I have mentioned, starting and/or coming of the bench and that's over thirty players. Which...

Not criticising him, he never was at the class of these other guys but it just highlights that we need to do better with our recruiting. I know people live in hope but and people think he's international class but I disagree, that's all.

People are saying the argument is flawed when looking at KPP's international standing, I just don't think he's in the same level as the reserves list of the other international teams. Yes he's an international by definition but that's it. He's not a middle but wonder what his tackle bust or PCM...

Yeah fine but to consider him 'international' class, is somewhat laughable. I just listed the bench players for the other team and they are much better then KPP. We are in trouble. May is the closest thing we have to an international.

As mentioned before, 'Papallii, yes, much better. Sasagi, probably not but he has outperformed KPP this year'. You forgot to mention Naufahu Whyte, Xavier Willison, Erin Clark, Felise Kaufusi, Siua Wong, Simi Sasagi, Francis Molo and Koloamatangi, Reuben Cotter, and Lindsay Collins. Yeah he's...

Please........and the below names don't include the bench players, and we don't have one of them. And IMO they are all much better than KPP, so yes, half baked but you can disagree though. Tonga Addin Fonua-Blake Siliva Havili Stefano Utoikamanu Siua Wong Eliesa Katoa Jason Taumalolo Samoa...

Standard of the Kangaroos, really? I've watched all the internationals and he would struggle to make any of the teams mentioned. Not saying he can't improve but let's not kid ourselves.

Half baked international when you compare him to the other teams mention. Yes, good teams all have an international forward or two or three.

Sorry, I thought it was obvious, he wouldn't make the Kiwi, Australian, Tongan or Samoan pack and you can include the bench? He's an average first grader, not international standard.....yet

I know it's been indicate a thousand times how 'poor' our pack is but one more. Do we have anyone at the level of someone from the Kiwi, Australian, Tongan or Samoan pack and you can include their benches? Actually apart from May do we have anyone that good? Maybe? If not, its shows how far we...

Solid first grader but he's certainly not at the level of anyone from the Kiwi, Australian, Tongan or Samoan pack and you can include the bench? Actually apart from May do we have anyone that good? Maybe? If not, its shows how far we are behind. Zero internationals. Sorry for the hyperbole...

One thing yesterdays game shows us, is that if you want to be a top 4 or top 8 team you need at least one of these beasts in your team, also from Tonga and Australia. Does Terral or Pole qualify? Probably not. I think Terrell and Pole have the potential, Terrell needs to play fewer minutes

I don't think he's already worth $900k to the team, we would be investing in his future. However, he's young and has plenty of growth in him, mentally and physically, so he could turn out to be the complete player. So, the question is, what are the chances of him developing into this player...

Getting picked for England is huge for the Tigers. What an experience, a great opportunity for him to hang around elite players (Albeit English) and learn and if nothing else build some confidence.

The point is that Walsh has shown he is more then capable and willing to being hit hard and has the ability to bounce out of tackles, like the good fullbacks of today. Has Bula shown this attribute, not saying he can't develop it but a small question mark.

What makes a great fullback, 'bash and barge' is a big part of it, these days Fullbacks like Tedesco, Walsh, Edwards who are very strong and can bounce out of tackles, they don't mind the 'tough' runs. Has Bula go that in him? There's every chance but he needs to show it soon. While Makinsini...

So membership packages are really for only 11 games because you would need to get to Brisbane for the 12th. Thanks

Maybe, I wonder what his tackle break stat is? Does he show the agility of other top fullbacks, who are bouncing out of tackles and making half breaks? Also, has he the strength and power of other fullbacks? He can glide into a backline movement as good as anyone but top fullbacks have more to...
