Since coming back from injury Tupou has been really good, surprisingly good, making good yardage out of his own half, he would waltz in to our backline

Absolutely. And he’s tall and fast, two things we’re lacking at the moment. Tupou would be a really good pickup for us.

Is he even off contract? I'm pretty sure the Roosters re-signed him for another 4 years at the end of last season.

Similar scenario to Mitch Pearce . He was signed then the Roosters signed Cronk so they released Pearce .

If the Roosters have 2 wingers coming they won’t be paying Tupou to play for Wyong .

Morris for Tupou isn't really an upgrade at his age and Tupou has been playing really well since he re-signed and come back from injury. If makes no sense they would just turf him out now.

Surely we could get one of the roosters 2nd rowers, Matterson would be my target. Only has 1 year left and Roosters have plenty of 2nd rowers on long contracts.

Matterson was one of the best edge forwards in the first 2 months this year until he got injured now he might be slightly out of favour with the roosters.

Check out Luke Garner’s performance today against the bunnies .. this will make us attractive to a lot of young talent from other clubs - we have given opportunity to a lot of young guys since Ivan took over the reins, most clubs are too busy poaching to look at their own nursery.
I agree that Matterson is very good and the roosters have nailed a dud in Crichton.

When you look at our ISP squad there isnt much competition from up and comers. Bailey Sironen and Josh Drinkwater going / gone elsewhere. With no great enthusiasm promote Watson Heleta to the NRL squad? GArner already has gone up.

Bayley Faull — Front Row, Lock

Bayley Sironen — Second Row, Lock, Five-Eighth

Braden Robson — Five-Eighth, Centre

Cowen Epere — Front Row

Harry O’Toole — Wing

Joseph Ratu — Front Row

Josh Drinkwater — Halfback

Judd Hanlon — Hooker

Jye Challenor — Front Row

Lucas Price — Centre, Wing

Luke Garner — Second Row

Patrice Siolo — Second Row, Lock

Toni Tali — Centre

Watson Heleta — Fullback, Wing

Tali before June 30 next year more then likely

Garner came from the Rorters…lol

Was he playing in the Q cup last year ?

Manly I believe.

He is a player. Reminds me of a young Beaver Menzies.

:righton:

Was playing wing at roosters(Wyong roos) and then went to manly for a year before joining us.
Lucia's Price is from Manly too.

Having a cracking year in Super League and our NSW cup side fell apart once he left - might be the replacement from Benji
 
Watched the Manly v East game today , clearly heard Hodges talking about Kelly, “ when he is at the Tigers next year” anyone else hear that
