Stefano Utoikamanu #241

[Tucker]

Stef is just fine, Lucky 2 have him
Why are we doing all of this smh

Merely stating that isn’t his job and I don’t believe he has been asked to nor is doing this.
Apart from that…he is a bench prop at best. We need a mongrel to join Klem.

Just what @teddy23 said the other day.

Stefano's development as a player is going well. Expecting big things from him in 2024.

 

[hilly1981]

Big year from Stef coming up!!

Big year from Stef coming up!!

I remember saying the same thing this time last year but unfortunately he didn’t really fire.
I’m still hoping he will hit his straps in 24 and beyond, and set a good platform for us.
🤞🤞🤞

Not picked by Maguire for NSW train on squad. Left right out.

 

[Tucker]

Probably a good decision.
He isn’t ready and we need him concentrating on the NRL competition rounds

 

[Roar_Power]

He has been surpassed in the pecking order. Needs to find some mongrel this year.

I love Stefano and i would die for the NSW Blues,

But in truth, he hasnt deserved the call up as yet.

Stef needs to be the animal that he can be like Addin and Payne haas

Think he has that aggression in him?

Looks like he could be leaving Tigers? If we dont make finals this year, the only other trigger to stop him pulling out of his MO would have been not playing rep footy.

No real loss. I would have traded him to the Roosters and taken Leniu.

Stefano is soft as and shouldn’t have been there this year.

He was going great under Maguire.

These clauses are a bit suss imo and leaves it a bit open to be manipulated...were odds on to miss the finals ...Madge has dumped him albeit deservedly...but i dont like it when other people can have an influence on how his deal ends up

Are you suggesting Madge is playing the long game for his revenge?

 

[Needaname]

Let’s be fair at 22/23 Stef is the youngest front rower to lace the boots for origin recently.
There were injuries to RCG and I think 1 of the other Safiti boy. In terms of expectations, the 5 props picked ahead of him are older and more experienced.
He isn’t breaking out to be picked over any of them and frankly isn’t as good a player as any of them. Yet.
This season will give an indication of what levels Stef can get to.

I'm not accusing anyone of anything...just saying the pieces fit into the puzzle very easily. Everyone knows Stefano is a future Blues prop.
