Kelma Tuilagi Signs With Manly

Twal style of play is more like a workhorse backrower but because he is a bigger body & we have no quality in the front row stakes he is lumped as a prop. He was having a breakout season at Lock and I think he could be worth a crack in the backrow for us.

With zero footwork and can not pass…
Yep - that’ll work a treat!!
Breakout season? He’s been in and around lock the whole time he’s been here - the most in effective lock in the comp.

Mate it is simple numbers. We don't have enough second rowers. If you think three first grade back rowers is sufficient I can't help you.

Our centre options aren't great but at least if one or two go down there's players to come up whom have played first grade.

On that note - I'd take Sam McIntyre back in a heart-beat!

Great hands - the cardio fitness to keep pushing up in the ruck & staying on the ball (as the best contemporary 13s do) - and he has the consistently best mid-riff tackling technique of any forward we have had since Ben Galea!!

He not only hits & sticks - but he knows how to use his shoulder and really stings his opponents!

A concept that is very foreign to Luke Garner for instance - or even Twal who is extremely effective but never hurts his opponent.

He may not be as dynamic as Radley or Murray - but he is a bigger body and has all their other attributes.

The fact that he had a negotiated contract extension printed but that was never executed while our hopeless CEO went on holidays - leaving the Titans to gazump us is yet another black eye and major embarrassment for our dysfunctional and incompetent senior management team!

He is also a great kid who loved the club and playing under Madge - & he was very happy living in the Ryde area.

Can’t have been that happy, took off without even seeking an extension with the club…
And went looking for a run at a club that had bought about 2 mill worth of back rowers (not including him) on top of what they already had…
The outcome is as expected - he barely gets a run!!

More on what I said about signing a couple of players.
With Kelma leaving [Peter Peters says it's a done deal] and Lucy going, I believe Sheens would have gone into damage control to get suitable replacements.
Looking at the list if available players 2013 I'm scratching my head to think where are they coming from, hence my comment about England.
I'm going to do some research. 😁

Just don't use the dark web for your research like some some unnamed members who made the Politics thread a brothel...

Huh? I don't know much about the dark web, is that where you google with the lights switched off 🤣
I've got a mate who is a Rhinos fan in the old dart, I'm going to sus out some quality players who are available.
I'm sure Tim still has my number.
