Next Big Signing?

I agree willow but why is he given straight up shot at training with first grade when juniors are overlooked?

Good way to alienate the juniors they spend so much time nurturing.

Mate I don't know. I don't know why the Tigers signed him, I for one think they have enough depth for the wings if Tuiaki cannot play this season. Have they signed him to play wing or is he depth for elsewhere? Could he perhaps play hooker? He's not lightning quick and won't score you a long distance try but with his build and strength, he could be value out of dummyhalf…

I don't know, I'm stumped as to why the Tigers felt they needed to sign him. Riddell was certainly going to be backup for Farah...Could Utai fit the bill instead?

90% of dummy-half is passing and Utai's passing game is non-existent so that is a very long bow to draw!

As for why we signed him - the answer is one Steven Folkes!!!
 
Can anyone confirm/refute this signing yet?

Surprised actually that the Terrorgraph haven't caught wind of this and ran a story yet!

I'm trying to find reason in this somewhere red…It doesn't make sense to buy and out of form and probably out of shape winger who is knee high to a grasshopper and can't jump. I mean the Tigers may as well throw Frodo Baggins on the wing if they're that desperate. :astonished:

Frodo probably has more ticker…
