Nofo Vs Ryan ??

ryan turned a corner over the past 18 months with us. he came under criticism after some poor performances when he was appearing on beau knows and hit back by improving each and every game. he not only became a very good finisher, but was reliable under the high ball and was also quite creative and had the ability to score from little grubbers etc.

i couldnt confidently say who i'd prefer to have. personally, i think nofu would be better in the centres as opposed to the wing.
 
i havnt seen nofo play but from what other people have to say about him i cant wait to see him play for the tigers in first grade, i just hope koro and nofo have a injury free year
 
The good thing for us Nofo is only 18 years old and resigned this year till the end of 2014.
It seems that Sheens must be wanting to hold onto our young crop by letting Ryan and co. go .
This kid reminds me of Utai the way he takes the ball up and has got so much more to grow .
Korribete and Nofo have to be our wingers next year , give them time and let them learn from there mistakes in 1st grade. Tuquiri is a dumb signing…
 
Ryan for next year. Nofo and Koro are still learning and need someone to help them who is also performing on the field. That man should have been Beau.

Has this been confirmed?
sorry i havn't been on the forum much lately.
edit: oh yeah definitely confirmed that Tuquiri would be a dumb signing, what i mean is has he actually been signed?
 
1 year would be ok for tuquiri and utai. especially utai. He has been brilliant for us.

Would be good to let nofo stay one more year in NYC. I don't think it's smart to have 2 rookies on the flanks at the same time.
 
I heard Andrew Dunemain (?) - coach of Canberra NYC team on radio yesterday say that Nofoaluma and Korobete are thes best wingers in the NYC "by a long way". Canberra tried to get Nofo to join them but were unsuccessful. These guys are future starts of WT.

There's this. http://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/nrl/cronulla-sharks-bite-chunks-out-of-west-tigers-playlist/story-e6frfgfo-1226476115729

But nothing confirmed officially.

I'll tell you what, it's a disgrace if lote was signed before beau! Maybe that's who beau was referring to when saying 'others had signed'

I would have walked too.
 
I like what beau brings to the team in terms of enthusiasm and the fact that he is pretty safe out wide. He also has a good understanding with benji which is a key in regards to looking good in the tigers backline. Nofoaluma is the future though and i really want to see him get a chance next yeat provided he knuckles down during the off season. He has genuine tackle breaking ability and is one strong unit for his size.
 
Beau is gone.
So 2013 is all about Koroi and Nofo - I hope.
Heard some mention that Nofo is too small - same height as Steve Turner off the top and probably many more.
Whats height matter when the opponent can't catch you?

2013 - Nofo & Koro era >

It matters when the opposition winger jumps above you all day scoring tries from kicks

next year Id say Beau's experience may have given him the edge over Noffa, however moving forward long term I feel Noffa has a bigger future, Beau moving on could well be a blessing long term.
 
In the interim I wouldn't mind seeing Simona, Agia or Hitchcox given a go on the wing
 
id throw noro and koro on the wings next year titans did it a couple of years back with gordan and mead they didnt turn out too bad
