Remember we are not yet a roosters, Penrith, storm or Brisbane where players will come on a discount...

Wasn't the deal done whilst he was out injured because he couldn't fend, let alone tackle with any venom?
If so, makes it even worse.

Hope we have signed the kid as he has a lot of potential , till 29 should show where he is at and we again can extend him later if required , Skelton I would keep as cheap back up but I feel what we offer will be under a few other clubs who want some size in a winger , Dragons , eels all could do with him , Toa is our real problem and we should be doing everything we can to unload him and free up a spot even if it for one of the kids , be better than what he produces , he is cooked

Who would be dumb enough to take Toa, you would have to offer a buy one get one free with Skelton, but that's just fantasy.
Looks like we are stuck with him unless he decides to retire himself, doubt the club could medically retire him if it's a pre-existing injury.
Was never a fan of Toa, slow play the ball, always gets up looking injured, bad extension of his contract. If we can offload him somehow, great, maybe medical retirement but think highly unlikely. As for Skelton, I would keep him as backup, providing contract is modest cost.
We have a tough few weeks coming up even with the bye, hope we get all the troops back soon after, maybe a surging period to the finals, Have fingers, toes and everything else crossed, Go Tigers!

Still nothing official from the club on Makasini....maybe the DT rained on their parade

Thankfully, he's only one of one. We used to be stacked with bad contracts! We've got some other very average top 30 entrants (e.g. Will Craig), but they will clear out this year.
The whole iceman post on facebook is weird. Not sure if it refers to makasini at all

It's a shame because Skelton was newly brought.
As was Bird, as have been a bunch of players who we have picked.
Skelton seemed to have better defense then everyone but Turuva.
IMHO I think were coaching wrong. Laulili is going so why put the effort into him. (happy for him to earn his place, just were kinda not getting the best out of everyone).
