Interesting article from Riccio

Pack
8. Joffa
9. Api
10. Klemmer
11. Papali
12. Nannai
13. Bateman

7 Brooks

6. Laurie

5. Ken M

4. Naden

3. Kepoa / Starford

2. Nofo

1. Staines

If Douhie was to be moved on Laurie could play 6 and we would still have 2 spots left

I think I would need to lay down if that happened 🙂🙂
 
My backline
1. Staines
2.Nofoaloma
3.Naden
4. Douehi
5. Ngatlik
6. Laurie
7. Brooks
With Talau or Toa the bench backs
I'm guessing Daino can make the transition but want him on the field as 2022 he probably top of the tree for effort and he has speed and skills albeit with a smallish frame
Re the Forwards
As everyone saying we have many good options and depth for once
I want Rua as utility on bench

what you take for Brown allows parramatta to put the difference towards Moses, no thanks to Brown

I dont think taking Brown on a modest deal maybe even with Parra tipping in is necessarily going to sway things either way. Parra still have to replace him with another player who will cost them money one way or the other, they still need a 30 man roster just like we do.

Really don’t know why people don’t want Brown. We’ve finally


Our 2 - 5 are still terrible.

Maumalo, Nofo - these guys are shit.

Naden is ok.

Kepaoa - zooee! Zooee!

If we have the cash to pay out Nofo, I would. The guy is terrible.

imo under the new coaching structure Noffa will have his best year ever,or his ego will implode and pay for its own exit
 
WESTS Tigers are closing in on signing Papua New Guinea Kumuls winger Jimmy Ngutlik on a train-and-trial deal for the 2023 National Rugby League (NRL) season.
Tigers chief executive Justin Pascoe told The National yesterday that the 22-year-old would be available for selection for coach Tim Sheen’s first grade side during the mid-season.
Ngutlik, from Bitabaur village in East New Britain, previously joined the Tigers pathway programme in 2021 and played for their Jersey Flegg Cup (Under-20) side throughout the season.
The speedster was promoted to the feeder side Western Suburbs Magpies in the New South Wales’ Ron Massey Cup and New South Wales Cup competitions early this year.
However, now with the new train-and-trial deal, Ngutlik would be available for NRL side’s selection as early as round 10 in 2023.
Pascoe said Ngutlik’s form at Rugby League World Cup was what encouraged the Tigers to promote him.
“Jimmy is close to signing a new train-and-trial contract with Wests Tigers,” Pascoe said.
“He did well at the Rugby League World Cup with the PNG Kumuls and that will surely help in his continued development as a player.
“We look forward to Jimmy’s continued progress, hard work and persistence.
“Jimmy will be a part of our extended squad through the summer and beyond and will be available for selection when the new season commences next year,” said the Tiger chief executive.
Pascoe said the club was in talks with Ngutlik last week regarding the new contract. Ngutlik made his international debut for PNG at the World Cup game against Cook Islands.
Ngutlik had his best game against Wales in the final group match where he scored a double. He also scored the Kumuls’ only try in the 6-48 loss to England in the quarterfinal.

Well deserved.

Brown fits the ball-playing lock role Sheens wants. He's as good as any forward when it comes to ball playing, it was like he was playing halfback for Italy at the world cup. I'd be more than happy to land him for a couple years with Parra paying some of his deal.

If justin matamua is being viewed as a long term lock then maybe a short deal. As our Dev players can’t play till r 11. Yes he can ball play but I wouldn’t want him stopping the progress of our pathway players.

This is good. Any PNG player will improve from good training and good food.

Also with a proper running coach, expect more speed out of him.
Just ensure they get the right environment... Good leadership.
