Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Big for nothing, that guy.
Never fires up.

He does … when he’s running at 170cm halfbacks.

Happy for him to go and make millions and play in front of 3000 people for the Waratahs. Apparently Sua’ali’i touched the ball twice the other night.

Re Manase Fainu.

He will be coming here in some form. I do worry about Manase as he went to jail and he seemed rather unrepentant.

Benji did well to integrate Taylan May, but it's going to be a challenge with Manase.
If Manase doesn't want to play, I would be happy to offer him a job at the club. Something like "community liason".

Now this is a rumour I really like … there was some chat a few months back he was unhappy…

Doubt we can afford him though mid season

Yeah of course he would be great but Sione and Royce are doing a good job. Sione has to stay in the side.

Yeah … gotta agree that you don’t want to upset the current balance …

The Roosters will want a player swap to give him up mid season.,and I don’t want to give those grubs anything …

Destination club. Winning. Mic drop.

Kinda forgot about him … yeah could see him leaving unfortunately,,

Your consistent.
You see everyone leaving, unfortunately.

I wonder...

The Storm are clearly hitting tough times. We have been talking of Fonua Pole going south..

Reckon Suli Pole could head north?
We have some budget with Luai's salary.

We would have to loose someone... Unsure if it's a good idea to have 3 families heavily involved in the club.

Fanua Pole said to TDM in their Podcast that he was trying to convince his brother to come to the Tigers.

Wow, that would be awesome. SOO level

Fonua Pole is and will be much more important than some of us realise.
Of all the props 23 or under this year across the NRL, I’d say he is number 1 and not many young props run the ball as strongly as what he does.
Supposedly very close with Bula and their partners/wives are sisters, so you would think if Bula stays, it’s a big chance Pole does too.

I agree, he's a must keep. He has got the 'goods' and will probably keep on improving

We currently have 3 sets of brothers, Fainus, Mays and Luaililis. Luke and kit are leaving so we can replace them with Suli Pole. Based on this year, 3 sets of brothers seems like the perfect mix😉

Mid season transfer. He wants to play for a team that has a chance of playing finals football.

I don’t like it TBH

His performances don’t match his 800k salary

Roosters are top four?

 

[Tom Shines]

Would the Roosters agree to Leinu leaving mid season to join the Tigers ? Might have two of their ex forwards smashing them in them in the finals ..him and May …😉
