I've heard similar things elsewhere.
Whilst not a marque, he'd bring a bit of size to our squad. Considering what's on the market, I wouldn't object.

Would be an awesome pickup.

Might work…
Lima is a signing that would shut a lot of people up.......
Let's hope he brings the right _**attitude**_ with him.....
Marquee signing....? He is a Kiwi international.......

I doubt it - Moors is pretty much a direct swap for Laurie.

The Lima things being going around for a long time, be a great pick up and probably all we need. Galloway,Gibbs,Payten, Lima and a few of the others we already have on our books from the lower grades should be enough front rowers to get us through a season. I suppose a lot will depend on the Lotte thing and how much coin they have

Lima would be great. I hope we have a real go at signing him rather than the usual "we'll offer less than everyone else, and he has to decide if he wants to play for us".
Lote could be playing games, I hope we don't have all our eggs in that basket. Plus front row is a position we need more than any other. Even more so with the loss of Laurie.

Lima is a different player than the last time he was at the Tigers.
He has grown up and got rid of all the outside crap that was ruining his career. He would be a great addition to our pack and would complete our recruitment.
I would be happy if this is true.
That would mean that Payne and Galea would not be retained if Lima comes through i suppose as I have not heard any offical word on both players.

sorry completely disagree. jeff lima would be a massive marque signing. the bloke is a big, mobile unit who can offload. he also has a massive workrate.
of all the players we are linked to he would be by far the best signing.

Wouldnt Junior Moors be the least mobile lock in the comp?
I'd see Hieghno, Fulton there first, Moors second row, prop or most likely bench
Glenn
Penrith list him as a lock but i wouldn't be against Fulton starting lock & Moors off the bench
It dosn't really matter but just look how much better our pack looks with JUST ONE established forward in Lima
