Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

I think WT should go all out for Spencer Leniu. Impact prop, only 24 years old, Samoan, played with the ex Penrith boys, doesn't seem to fit in with Latte Criwd at the Chooks. He along with Pearce-Paul and May would make our team top 8. Also like the idea of signing Hassett from Penrith.
Can we move on Tumeth, Matamua, Feledy, etc before the 30th June and use money to extend Terrill May, Bula and other quality players.
I like AD like most forum members but he is a real weakness at Centre.
I also wouldn't mind see if Junior Tupou want to return from the Dolphins. Only played 3 games and seems out of favour. I know his hands let him down but only 22 years old and has attributes to make a decent NRL player. We need depth plus competition for spots.

Doueihi defended well and he also kicks goals. The recovery from a serious knee injury is not immediate and I previously posted you will not see the best of him until later in the year. In one game earlier in the year, he did demonstrate excellent pace over long distance. He was also opposite Tago and To'o two very experienced and premiership winning outside backs.

I'm glad Marshall and his staff select the teams because it is a difficult task. We need to look in our own backyard for answers and I hope Marshall works hard with Taateo. His ability to carry the ball forward is excellent and he'd be a player Bellamy would polish into a v/good player. Sam Fainu imo is a very good second row forward while Sukkar can learn his trade coming off the bench or starting when needed. May has only played 8 games at centre and I'd suggest he may be good competition for a wing spot along with Skelton and Staines.

He should be playing on the wing with his size and supposed speed. Centres these days need the ability to get outside their men or cut in through a tight hole. Doueihi can do neither. I’d prefer Gagai.

He is OK. First min or so on the field he left a huge gap for the Bulldogs backrower to score. He is on par with Kit for mine. That’s nothing to write home about.

He needs polish but Bellamy would give him a typical makeover to become a good NRL prop. Kit Lauli'i struggled tackling the bigger forwards. Rahme played well and I hope he continues to improve.
