It wouldn’t surprise me if the Dragons offer a swap deal, Jock for that young forward that wants out.

We would be crazy to accept that Bunty can't even get a run we don't need more forwards

Bunty couldn't get a run w the Wahs last season either. He's bog average.

We have a top 4 pack it's the least of our problems. We don't need some young forward that is 5-6 years off his prime years.

No he is not. He is a teriffic middle that will end up playing a big role in our team this year .. bookmark this post

He was left out of the Wahs team because he blew out to a 130kgs, came to us for a chance and got down to 115kgs.

I'm keen for him to get a run and prove himself but the pack is going too well for changes, his chance will arrive soon enough it's a long season and I think a lot will be surprised.

Samuela is an incredible player. I would let Bula go if it meant a big contract for Sam and he stays 5 years. He's got everything.

Why would we do that? We should be able to keep them both. All 3 Fainu brothers want to play together and they are all class.

How are you writing him off before playing a game for us lol

He is next man up, hopefully the boys stay healthy and we never need to call him up, however he will get his chance.

And he was good in the trial, but yeah let's just write him off 😂

Skelton is a first grader, and he couldn't get a run at the dogs.

I still think he has the right stuff, he used to destroy us up the middle a couple of seasons back, hope when he gets a shot he goes so well that he holds his spot.

It's a good question! I'd be happy to keep both of course. But look at the Storm right now without a dominant forward pack.

'To defend everything is to defend nothing'. Samuela is 2 years younger than Bula and there is almost zero ambiguity around his future bonafides. -- When we had the big 4 debacle in 2017, -- I look back and I would have gladly taken Tedesco on a gigantic contract and just let the others leave. I just don't want to lose both by trying to keep both, and if I had to choose I'd choose Samuela every day.
