I would absolutely taking Nelson if he was an option.
Ridiculous size, ridiculous amount of tackle breaks per game, ridiculous amount of offloads, tackles at 90% & averages 100m a game off the bench.
Will he play 24 games a season? Probably not. But the impact on the field is something nobody in the club currently offers.
Plus- if we are get bullied....nobody bullies Nelson.
Dunno mate I'd give him a miss, from the Australian newspaper below.
STORM’S $860K LIABILITY
Big Nelson Asofa-Solomona has now been charged 26 times for foul play since joining Melbourne Storm.
You name it, he’s done it - dropping knees, raised elbows, lashing out with his feet, attacking opponents’ heads, punching, crushers, a cannonball tackle and shoulder charges.
The 29-year-old prop is under contract until the end of the 2028 season on big bucks -
$860,000-a-year according to the latest NRL Rich 100 list.
This is far too much cash for a serial offender, who, with his latest suspension, will have served 10 games in the last 12 months, missing two straight grand finals.

You can understand if Storm officials now regard him as a liability.
Coach Craig Bellamy and Storm management will wait until the end of the season to make a decision on his future.
We expect the giant forward will be offered the opportunity to look elsewhere.
He’d be a handy heavyweight signing for a club like St George Illawarra if he can ever sort out his disciplinary issues.
Or there is the option to join the breakaway R360 rugby union competition.
