7 I think

I did also see 13 somewhere else but didn’t confirm if it’s him and also the fact he plays touch footy could mean different numbers idk

Halfback is what I found.

Has also been playing hooker for his school & reportedly the position his future lies.

Martin (coach) said Busby, the team’s starting hooker, had been good in every game this year.

“He’s incredibly fit, he leads our line speed a lot and he’s a very skilful player,” he said.

“He’s really sharp… and he’s very quick out of dummy half.

“He’s just as energetic off the field. He’s always bouncing around and keeping the morale up.

“He’s a really good kid to have in our group.”

Titans are going to be nice enough to pay Fifita $500k a year to play for the South Sydney Rabbitohs the next 2 seasons … nice of them to help a brother out …

Nov 1....and perth will be in the mix too
Storm, Dogs are others that need forwards
It wont be easy but we are relying on.luck according to richo so fingers Xed

Saying we're relying on luck is more an observation of the state of the market than a strategy, to be fair. What he's saying is, basically, there isn't anyone who is or is obviously likely to be on the market who they think is a difference maker - which seems fair to me. Personally I think it's a good idea to make it clear that we're not going to sign someone just because they happen to be available. That's how you end up with Josh Reynolds and Moses Mbye.

That’s how I’m reading it. The market for props is up at the moment, it’s a bad time to invest, overs everywhere, the good ones will get locked up, the average ones will have their flaws glossed over, and they will be the real winners. Developing one right now is gold. It’s a shame Fatamua, Fa’agutu, Tumeth, etc didn’t turn out better bcoz that’s the void we have. If just one of those and one of the short ass middles we’ve kept like Luallli turn out better we probably not shopping at all.
Anyway we need a 10 asap and a 13, hopefully Trent gives his best “here’s things you can work on” speech to a couple of origin level players again, and Big T gives em a big hug and says “I’d like you to rub noses with Benji”

assuming he'll be in the running to replace Haywood for Balmain SG.

What about Bunty Afoa

He's 29, I'm sure we could get 1-2 years out of him for nothing.

Or we could get nothing out of him for 1-2 years. Surely our sights have to set higher than a cast-off from the Warriors whose not a noted game changer.

Its usually a red flag if no other club is showing any interest.
