Mate, in 2025 when Latu is a star tearing it up for the tigers week in week out I will truly be very interested on how you reconcile it with this relentless complaining about the Tigers signing a junior prodigy !! At some point Fittler , Lewis , Thurston , Cameron Smith Ponga had all not played first grade and been untested but the scouts saw something in them and signed them ..
Then we fit them all into the 17 and have a stronger team as a result
Actually he will be 32 at the time of the last game of that 4 yr contract
Still young for a prop.
I went to training today to watch the guys run around. They were playing a full contact game with a referee. Looked like an "A" side full of first grade players and a "B" side of those battling to get into first grade. A few things I saw...
The A team had Lobb on left wing, inside Toupu at centre. Right wing was Staines with Toa at centre. Benji was playing in the halves and looked as good as ever.
Noffa was in the B team on the right wing. One of the few breaks made was done his wing and John Morris was yelling at him and the centre (not sure who it was).
Plenty of guys not training or training by themselves. Klemmer had a bad leg/knee and was noticably limping. Joining him on his walks around the oval was Twal who looked fine and Douhie, who later on was walking with ice on his left leg.
Api was just watching, but looked uninjured. Was practicing kicking goals from the sideline.
When they were doing their running drills, Ice, Naden and Sezer were the too loud talkers, trying to motivate the younger boys. Sezer looked good in the game too and was very talkative in both offence and defence. Naden was playing in the halves for the B team and did a decent job, wearing a pink bib, so wasnt allowed to be tackled.
Galvin, Feledy plus a couple of other young guys were just doing running drills. Latu Fainu and Jordan Miller were not training at all but looked uninjured.
Sullivan was training by himself doing wrestling and running drills.
I miss my footy
I think with Latu and Sullivan not doing full contact, it forced him into the role.
Are you kidding,

Needs to show he’s still got it.
Benji. Morris also did it at sharks. Let's see if benjis coaching works before we come out blasting. I have coached sports and you can't do it all just talking
He will be re registered when he signs up with the Dogs nxt yr 😂

I’m sure it’s a pre season thing. I doubt he’ll be in amongst during captain‘s runs.
Wrote it where?
