I cannot believe he is only 29 years old

 

[upthetigers]

We needed an experienced prop.

 

[Tom Shines]

I’ll take him…👍

Hope something else shakes out in the middle …

 

[gallagher]

Finally! It feels like he's been talked about on here for years.
Our depth in the pack is strengthening with a lot more pressure on the existing guys

 

[Terry T.Nuts]

Great signing, solid workhorse who is isn't afraid of contact and knows how to defend. If Benji gets the bench right Sione Fainu, Bunty, Royce, Twal we should piss into the Top 8.

What happened to this guy, hasn’t been playing first grade this season? Always wreaked havoc, especially when we played against him!

 

[Alex Seyfarth's #1 Fan]

Surely he jumps ahead of Royce in the pecking order? Unless by some miracle Roycey limits himself to a 10-piece bucket meal as opposed to his normal 15-piece.

Well done again to management for keeping the leaks shut.

Where do people rank Bunty against our current front row stocks ??
I haven't seen any of the Warriors reserve grade side this season

 

[Tiger_Yoshi]

1 year and hopefully cheap....good pickup IMO

 

[Terry T.Nuts]

What happened to this guy, hasn’t been playing first grade this season? Always wreaked havoc, especially when we played against him!

Had an immense group infront of him Fisher Harris, Barnett(even though he got injured) even Ale etc. A bloody good player and will provide heaps of quality depth, a shitload better than Seyfart, Sukkar and co.

 

[weststigerman]

Good signing. Not the player he was but he adds depth and is exactly the style of prop we need more of.

similar to Royce Hunt....hopefully between the 2 of them we have a damaging prop for at least 60 min

Far more reliable and consistent than Royce, but really hope Benji can fire up Royce as he could be a strong bench player with x factor.

 

[TigerJunior4]

Good buy. Provides some good impact and adds more depth to our squad.

We’ll finally have options outside of our top 17 (though I think Afoa will find a spot on the bench at a minimum).

Just love this post of yours T1.
You've come out of the pack 'again' and said something positive about another poster.
Well done.

29 years old, played 138 games, stands at 188cm
113kg Prop. Doesn't have a history of lingering injuries, concussion or judiciary visits and contracted for one year.

One thing I like is he wasn’t in nrl but went back to cup and still churned out the effort. Lot to be said for that leadership amongst the young inexperienced.

The way we are building I think our cup side will be very competitive next year which will have a ripple effect into nrl side.
I base this on the fact that hopefully all our excess firsts not injured will be playing cup and we’ve strengthened in the right areas so far
