Didn't Rona play centre in 2016? If he is coming, that might be where he plays…

Centers? We have Milne, Masters, Suli + Lolohea can play there.
Fullback worries me as does our back row depth the most for next year - we are also 1 prop short.
If MCK or Edwards is even on the extended we have troubles.

I feel if we were to get either Rona or Tupou i would get Rona just because in the past few years out of the roosters backline they target tupou and he is a bit of a hit and miss player. If we do get tupou i feel he could become a better player with a better club.
Tupou - He gives us a try scoring ability, when nothing is going a perfectly weighted kick to his wing his height could just give us a try when nothing is going.
Rona - He runs it back like Nofa and can finish off tries like Rapana, he just executes tries perfectly.
IMO Rona for me

His mentioned during the game last night that the Tigers were on the lookout for a fullback.
Maybe that's what Ivan has in mind for Connor Watson.

I still feel like we're missing a good fullback option. Lolohea doesn't look like a fullback to me at all.
This sure sounds weird with the above post that I didn't see before posting.

Tupou wants to stay at roosters. They aren't as keen for the price tag. He will be there or at WT though is my understanding.
Long story about how he most likely won't be at the roosters though. And through no fault of his own

Blake Ferguson caught on CCTV doing Coke, certain publican sent footage to roosters asked to be paid off to not release it. They did. Deducted amount from Ferguson contract upgrade. Basically he's on $250k a season now until he leaves roosters. NRL head in sand about it.

I'm sure some journos know of it too but we are the easier target.

On the last couple of weeks performance, I would be looking for a half that clubs are trying to shed due to the cap, or possibly a young player (Mitch Cornish, Lachlan Croker, Kyle Laybutt, Drew hutchinson).
Someone needs to put pressure on, and potentially replace Brooks.
