We need a few smokeys to stand up.

Yep, the likes of Sukkar, Johanssen, Sione and To'a...if they all had breakout seasons and cemented their spots in the top 30...how good

 

[GNR4LIFE]

Well done to the kid

 

[Tigers_Wests]

Big year incoming for Sione! 2 years the right length of contract for him too.

 

[Buttface]

Well deserved, and shows others that if you work hard and play better rewards will come.

 

[Bellend]

About time.

Good signing. Can play lock, second row and prop and well deserved after his form last year.

Helps our depth and gives us some options.

I think he’s a good example of a player that been given time to develop in the lower grades. He played a FG trial at Manly, came over to us, played state cup before going back down to Flegg.

Then re-introduced to State Cup before playing FG. I feel like the extra time in the lower grades helped him step up for FG.

Good news. Loyalty and trust by both Fainu and WT. And we still have one more spot open. Woohoo!!!!

 

[SeanT]

I thought he was really decent last year. After this preseason I wouldn't even mind him taking a bench spot.

Agree, and I think having his brothers here has lifted him even further.

I'm sure there will be even more improvement this season.

Has good hands and really good footwork near the line. No doubt he will be pushing for first grade all year - still so young too. Glad we have all the Fainus locked up

Should definitely be in the midst of our rotation !

Is it possible Sam and Sione could be the starting back rowers?

I like it

I thought Sione was more of a middle. prop/lock. Although that's what they said about Samula and he killed it in the edge.
Sione might be handy on the bench covering edge, lock, prop
