Thats not goof for Nofoaluma.
You can t save a spot for him, he will have to go back to reserve grade and earn a promotion the old fashioned way.

He walks into our side when fit.
He is the number one outside back at the club.
We need him and all outside backs are on notice with him to return.

Actually that is not quite right
With an ACL if it is slightly damaged you can keep going until it starts giving way
Once it is at that stage they do surgery , you need surgery anyway
ACL's don't repair themselves , even minor tears
PCL's can in certain cases
Old management and blaming potter don't go well together. From all previous account Potter had no say in anything yet is still a scapegoat. Yes he had minimal man management skills, but can't blame him for jobs for they boys. Don't rate him but given the lack of control he had, he certainly isn't anywhere near Sheenius in the blame game.

Didn't know Rowe played in the trial?
Good luck to noffa. Agree with KS, best outside back in our team and possible ever! (after tuiaki). He'd walk into any of my dream teams <3

If Noffa is our greatest outside back not named Tuiaki already, then its a sad reflection on where we're at as a club.
The old Chris Lawrence was ahead of where Noffa is at.

if nofo slots straight in and there are no injuries to other starters and Naiqama has to go to reggies,i hope they play him at centre.
defensively he looks the most capable from the limited film i have seen of him.

Nofo will have to play in nsw cup for a while. He hasn't played for like what 7 months? Time for some match fitness, he'll need to practice the defensive structures JT has set up in a real match situation, not only in training etc.
It's only been preseason, but naiqama has been our best outside back in all trials and the 9s and deserves a spot in the 13 somewhere for the couple of months of the season.
