This is pure stupidity

We would be silly if we didn't have a serious got at Sexton. Young bloke improving every game. He could be the solution at 7.

Where do Latu and Luai fit in with this? Our halves are sorted.

Hugo Savala out and about in Ashfield today. Very nice bloke and had a good chat

What did he say?

tupou homesick supposedly

Interesting … he grew up in Canberra so he must want to return there

Latu Fainu will be many times better for the long term than Sexton.

Hoping Taylan May works out. Still think we need a prop and 2nd rower that can punch holes; as well as another centre better than Dooby.

 

[BlackWhiteGold]

If Taylan is just a T&T, I don’t think the club will announce it independently. I’d say it will be packaged up with other new T&T contracts, possibly Charlie Murray, Elie El Zakhem & Peter Taateo.

You know the salary cap is broken when the number one team in the league pick up a 750k* player mid-season.

*we know it's more than that

Thinking that Tyrone May could well transition into a ballplaying lock. His form has been good as a big-bodied 5/8 (98kg) for Hull KR. Don’t write this off as a possibility.

I agree. Said it another thread...
He could play a Kurt Mann type role for us.

I watched the highlights of the game the other day and he's quite slim at the moment though.
Would need to pack some muscle on.

I think he is a good depth / cup player and could fill in, for first grade when necessary.

Kai Pearce-Paul ✅️
Taylan May ✅️

Next up;
Harrison Hassett ( 2RF - Penrith)
Krystian Mapapalangi ( Centre / 5/8 - Upgrade)
Tyrone May ( HLF / LCK - Hull KR)
Lazarus Vaalepu ( FRF - Melbourne )
Viliami Fifita ( FRF - St George )

Hugo was up for a chat and not busy thankfully. He was going to Canterbury Racecourse for the races. Also told me he was going to watch the dogs and eels game and interested to see how galvin fits in. Also said he's prepping for the game vs knights this week after a bye. He looks lanky on TV but he is quite built up. Didn't get too deep into conversation as we were waiting for food but not much more to tell ya. He'll be a great player

 

[fainty]

What about Griffen Nene? Would be a great frf off the bench.

Latu Fainu will be many times better for the long term than Sexton.

Latu looks amazing. Generational talent. I think him, galvin, strange and katoa are the future halves of the game

Galvin is mostly a passer and Strange mostly a runner, at least at this stage of their careers. From what I have seen of Latu, he can do both very well.

Luai to 6. Fainu 14.

That would result in Latu leaving.
