@softlaw said:How has Abou-Sleiman gone in the game or 2 that he has played so far? Any chance of him moving up to 1sts to fill in for Teddy now that he's back from Japanese rugby?
He has played one game so far and Smeg came away very impressed with what he saw.

Both look good from what I have seen this year, and FG is not beyond either of them in the next 12 months. Fletcher speaks highly of Taukafa and said you could tell he had missed a couple of years of football during the pre-season, but he's training very hard, doing a lot of extras and has spent some time training with the top squad, so it sounds and looks like he's very focused to achieve what he wants.
If injuries hit us in the centres then he might get a run, but next year might be the right time to give him a go if he keeps improving. He has a pretty good build is a similar size to Lawrence.

Mr T - Released to union
Koro - To be released next week
If we are releasing Koro as well , I reckon Tedesco could be just about in the bag

Surely with Mr T gone, Koro would stay. Both would have been on peanuts so hardly saving much towards the cap. We still need backup winger at the club. As i've said before, we won't have any if Koro leaves, unless we sign someone…

watched ABOU-SLEIMAN against the dogs , was good in all aspects. Hope he is consistant week in week out. Asipelli Fine has been good but i think he is more suited to the back row. Takaufa still needs a lot of work before passing judgement. Interesting seeing Milone named, against Moses Pengai this week ?? i dont think he will handle the physicality against the men, time will tell .Also heard Fletch talk about Trent Jennings return from injury last week at Ron Massey was real happy with him, usually right centre he played wing last week and named again this week. If he strikes form i think he will push into state cup. :slight_smile:
