If BJ doesn’t find form quick I’d probably switch him to lock especially with our centre stocks of momo, talau, Mbye, doueihi

Shocking idea

Makes good meters has the size could be a JT for us...I’m not sure why we bought him even if one of doueihi or Mbye plays 6 and talau goes on the wingg we have better options in momo and Mbye/doueihi

Doesn't have the defensive motor to handle 13. He's pretty much played centre his entire career and I can't see Madge throwing him into the middle of the field. It's not a smart move.

If it was ever to be done, he’d need a pre season. You can’t just throw him into the pack where he’s never played, in the middle of the season. He wouldn’t have the motor.

Ummm .. BJ Leilua was in the Australain School Boys team as a hard running, ball playing lock .. before he signed with the Dragons .. then quickly being snapped up by the Headless Chooks. So he can play there .. big enough body.

10 years ago at schoolboy level. Not helping your argument

The thing is, these days, "what really does a contract mean?"

Just a piece of paper that ensures you’ll be compensated if the other party wants out.

Mattos contract had a term in it ensuring we would get those two players if he wanted out ? Weird contract.
 
Nic Cotric would be a fantastic purchase. Sean Keppie is available to sign from November, gun young prop. Christian Welch is a quality prop too
