Heard the titans arent overly keen to resign him once his contract is over. Although he isnt in the form that got him a qld jersey i think he could be a very good impact player in either second row or as a bench prop. And if keithy and ava go like whats being said i think itd be a very good signing. Also because he has played poorly over the last few seasons he could be cheap. Thoughts?

Promises so much yet delivers so little. Has the size and ability to be one of the most destructive forwards in the game, its just a matter of whether Jason Taylor or any other coach for that matter can continually get the best out of him, would be a gamble signing him!!

he can be terribly lazy sometimes, and other times thinks he is a ball player before utilising his massive frame.
If we lose props, then we should chase props… no more trying to squeeze square pegs into round holes.

If the game moves to 6 interchanges his already declining value becomes close to non-existent. Dave, meet the ESL…

dont rate him much but could be a real asset if given the right motivation. worth the gamble, if VERY cheap which i doubt.

Wasn't meaning that at all mate.
Taylor is useless, a bloke his size yet as lazy as they come. Tony Williams and Dave Taylor have a lot in common.

He is only 26, if he could find the motivation and thinks he still has anything to prove to himself he could still have 5 years in the NRL. He would be very cheap at the moment and worth a shot. We need experience in the forwards and he would be on less then half the price we paid for Blair. Only would he want to stay when he could probably get a contract for more then double in the ESL and plod along for another 8 years there. Personally Id take the second option and set myself and family up for life after footy.

Thats pretty mouth watering for 2016/2017/2018 if they all fire at the same time. Best pack in the comp. Im sure Lodge and Sirro will play SOO in a couple of years if they keep developing. A full rep pack.

he might be big, but in my opinion his heart is small.

I put him in the same category as jamal idris, in that he can be an amazing, destructive player on his day, but seems to need something (that is missing) to motivate him both on the field and fitness wise. fitness for him i think is a big issue, as when youre fit, you feel better and definitely play better, and i just dont think he works hard enough on this.
he does seem a bit on the dim side mentally though…whether thats an issue or not i dont know?! also i think an important thing in a squad is attitude. if he is known to have a poor one he would be a poor influence on the squad and not someone the club needs. but i dont know anything about him in this aspect.
what is the situation with the titans coke thing? could be a big factor in his career also.
id say worth a shot at the right price, with a big emphasis on the right price.
