Was nice to see the photos. Blore, Simpkin & Utoikamanu stood out. Would be great if the club could put some names with the pictures.

I sent an email to the media unit requesting some captions to the photos.
Media — media@weststigers.com.au

Maybe we should flood them with emails.

I see most of the photos now have names attached.


Its funny, not even the club knows who the big guy with his head bandaged is.

There are a few photos without a name, maybe they were swapped from Manly for JA.

First photo is Iverson Fautimau - 20year old centre poached from the Bulldogs. Signed last week with his brother Compton (18yo) also a centre. They’ve a younger bro Tyrese who is a 17yo prop from the Tigers Harold Matts team. Top Kiwi fellas. Warren McDonnell signed them to the dogs from NZ then bought them across to Wests last week..onya Waz!

McDonnell has pinched us a couple good juniors from bulldogs. Maybe he is focusing on rookies not first graders with hartigan and Madge doing that

Tim Sheens is alive and kicking.

Just needed Kepaoa on the bench and Nofa at prop....Sheenius

Asu Kepaoa had eye surgery..discovered an issue which blurred his vision when looking up...

He's ready for tree bomb practice..

That has always been my understanding of McDonnell's role.
 
What is noticeable is the physical development of the younger players. This has to be a good outcome as they challenge highly paid players for positions in the NRL team. The young Kiwi centre at 20 looks as though he could take over from Leilua at much less $ and the absence of meltdowns.

Who on earth is Henry O'Kane?

https://youtu.be/Wj7Grmw-9Uw

He runs some good lines and looks to be a solid defender, just what we need in a future backrower. His old man is the strength and conditioning coach at Joeys I believe so to me he strikes me in the same mold as Seyfarth - very hard worker but looks more talented.

Beaver Menzies.


Watching the reel...I was thinking the same.

Saw Beaver a few weeks back in SA at the Novotel Barossa Valley Resort .. it was at breakfast the morning after the first State of Origin game (Adelaide) .. as he walked into the breakfast area, I went .. "ahhhhhh ooohhh" .. he just looked, then pointed at me and laughed .. unfortunately my Mrs didn't appreciate my loudness, and said that i embarrassed myself .. she has no idea ..:smirk: :smirk:


You did the right thing don’t listen to your misses.

Beaver then sat down at the table with Craig Wing and a very hung-over Nathan Hindmarsh .. lol

My Bulldogs mates were spewing about these guys leaving.

Lots of potential

Well done WTs

He must be one of the boys from Tribal League that we were signing up. Wonder if it’s train and trial or he’s on Flegg
