OFFICIAL Bunty Afoa - Welcome to the JUNGLE!

Good signing, but you couldn’t have both Bunty and Royce defending in the middle at the same time.
I’d say it will now be a competition between Bunty and Royce for the number 17 jersey.
or inject Bunty and Royce at different stages, Rotating in and out with the kids .During games but more so times of the year , injury form suspensions
 
Always been a Bunty fan. Part of it is the hair but he’s also a pro - comes on, does his thing, comes off. Defends well, runs hard. Good signing if he stays healthy.
 
Brown gave up on us, just as his simpering mates did
Thats my point, Tigers considered him surplus. Debut in 2013, No games in 2014, he was behind Galloway and Woods as starting props, Blair at lock and behind that Bash bench of Ava/Gavet/Sue/Marty. He got salty and wanted to play and went to Souths in 2015 to get game time.

Tigers should have done more to get him to stay. The track record of Groat/Fifita debacle at this club is telling. If he stayed in 2015 he would have gotten similar if not more game time as Sue/Ava/Lodge etc Who knows what 2016+ would have brought him in Tigers colours going forward as the front row was Woods with Ava/Grant/Sue sharing the other prop position.
 
Great signing - he runs hard with passion and can flick sweat the eyes of the opposition with his huge sweaty, frizzy mop!
Much better than the tool Jazz Tevaga that Manly extracted from the Warriors previously,
I’ve mentioned Topa Sipley previously. I’m actually happier with the acquisition of Bunty.

maybe they thought they had an easy/cheaper replacement in Groat ,who preferred to twiddle his sticks, in an excavator
