Papalili, Blore and Luciano fighting for second row spots….. I like it

What a fantastic signing, definitely best signing of the last decade if you ask me.

Imo let’s continue to target Parra’s obvious cap issues, I think if we can sign Junior Paulo off them we’ve completed our pack…. he would know better than anyone else what were building here with both Stef and Papalili here now.

Stef and Paulo front row pairing would be exceptional

Just to touch on this:

8. Junior Paulo
9. Josh Hodgson (seems likely)
10. Stefano Utoikamanu
11. Shawn Blore
12. Isaiah Papalili
13. Alex Twal

Bench
14. Jacob Liddle
15. Luciano Leilua
16. Tyrone Peachey
17. Joe Ofanguahi

Tuki, Seyfarth, Garner etc waiting as depth

Would be amazing

Dont forget Alex Seyfarth, Always Improving every single year and a great attitude.

Tuki also coming through
 
Backrow has been or no1 weakness with centre running a close second. So now time to source a quality centre.

If this signing is true, it’s a good effort especially with the Dolphins pushing contract values and demand up.

These two are sleepers I like Seyfarths attitude on the park and Tuki is still young with a massive upside ,Blore is the other for mine .

Almost half of that group are off contract at the end of 2022 and I would expect considerable changes between now and 2023 as we continue to free up funds to chase a big name signing, and promote some of the top juniors coming through.

I was just about to say Seyfarth myself Spartan, seeing as Nathan Cayless said in his interview that it was Alex and Stefano which have impressed him the most out of all our forwards at training so far.

Once this becomes official, it pretty well spells the end of Garner and possibly Lucy if he still has delusions of grandeur about earning 700k per year as both are off contract at the end of 2022.

100%
Garner may be kept for depth. Any chance of LLs big pay day he wanted are gone. He signs for what we want to give or goes

Out of those boys who would you be happy to walk away from?? Maybe Liddle and we replace him with Simpkins but I’d be pretty upset if we lost anyone else maybe Luciano but I think surrounding him with quality will take him to an even higher level
 
Papali'i is a very good signing. Depth at one of our weakest positions and on his way up.

Also put Luch on notice.

This is one of the best signings we’ve made in years. Massive

Would just like to get him early avo but we all know it's not going to happen

Great news on the signing, lets try get him here in 2022.

As for people assuming Luch is wanting 700K... he's already came out in the media advising that he wants to stay and most likely for a lot less.

Luch is now feeling very nervous. He will have to drastically improve his tackling in 2022 or he is out the door.

One major signing and the mood of the forum has changed completely.

Can feel the love in the air!!
 
What’s does the forum think of signing gutho, he was one of the best fullbacks last year , he would be a great signing I think , sets his backs up well . Would also rub it into those parra ratbags

Not for the money he wants
 
If we have signed Papali'i to play in 2023 where does the money for his signing come from, the 2022 Cap or the 2023 Cap?
