41 tries in 57 games is nothing to sneeze at. He was one of the best finishers in the game.

I wouldn't call him a big name either but being clubless is probably what made me think of him.
I would love him here, miles ahead of what we currently have.

Imagine Hayne, Norman and Moses in the same team. I don't think there's a dressing room big enough for those 3 egos.

Junior Tatola trialing/training with Souths. We must have some good signings for ISP next year.

Don't get me wrong at all.
Lolohea has awesome potential and unlike our halfback hasn't had time to show that. I think he was an awesome buy and hopefully will turn out to be a fun player to watch.
Other then hiring cap penalities, we should not sign anyone else unless they are a really cheap gun we need.
We have a stack of Wingers, but only really Lolohea is earmarked for Fullback and he hasn't spent a lot of time there. Kev N is another choice and he has been hot/cold in the past, glad too see him heat up lately. I think we will be weak there till he gets used to the position and how he fits defensively.
Lets break the 8 in 2018.

Rumours are that dylan napa may be released from the roosters.. parra are making a play for him. I really hope ivan is keeping a eye on what happens with him because i think he will be a awesome addition to our squad. Thoughts anyone??

Absolutely go for Napa.
Scary thought, if Rorters are shedding Napa, with their $1m already, who are they going for? They need someone strong in the forwards, could be another big name… What's SBW doing these days?

Would be nice but usually when a good player is released he already has a new deal organized and there has been plenty of talk about him going to parra
Would really love to see him at tiger's though.
What a front row we would have
Buzz in the DT had Dylan Napa listed at $550,000\. Zero Tackle has him listed at 700k for the next two seasons.
He's a rep player, so he won't come cheap.
If we got Napa for fours years at 550-650K per year i'd be stoked.
I wouldn't go out and pay the big dollars (like the Dogs did with Woods) as there will be other positions we will need to strengthen first.
He's a fair bit younger than Packer/Mats and is solid enough, without being outstanding.

Roosters are mad! I would've shed JWH before Napa. JWH is on his way out, Napa just beginning his career as a prop really and he's a damn good one at that.

Now that Pearce has gone, there should be no need to release Napa.
We should look at the Aust Schools prop from the Eels, whom the DT reported that 3 clubs were chasing.

Absolutely agree.
The thing i don't get though is why would they even consider releasing anyone especially a good young prop if they are 1mil under the cap.
Must be something good in it for them
