Tuimoala Lolohea Signs with WT

[WT2K]

This thread lol anyway.. Thanks SG on the update for Johnston. And all the others you've mentioned throughout the process.

 

[swag_tiger]

I really hope this is true. He'd be a great signing. Where did you hear this?

It's not

Cmon Smoking Gun we need some good news. We look to you for a light at the end of the tunnel

Gee mate I've given you guys mataulino packer and lolohea lol. Whenever I get info through I always post it on here which is why for the most part it's always correct. Don't like leading people down the golden path.

Tigers have sent an offer in to Alex Johnson that happened last Thursday. They do have interest in Hopoate as well but have offered AJ a deal first and looks like hoppa wants to stay at belmore anyway.

What is Johnston most likely to do?

At least I know that we have shown some interest in Hopoate. Enough to satisfy me.

No idea. But here he would fight it out with lolo at fullback but his best position is wing in my opinion. At Souths he's stuck behind Inglis and now gagai for fullback spots. There's a few clubs chasing him so I'd say he picks the one that best suits his future desires for fullback. He's young still has time to learn the position

we could play LoLo at centre and offer AJ fullback to get him over the line

That would just leave us a rubbish centre and a rubbish fullback…

Lolo came to play Fullback or halfback.

Yep, more chance of playing those positions at the Tigers than at the Warriors. Unfortunately it will likely fullback or halfback in the ISP side

I don't think so Harv - get used to him being Teddys replacement for next year.

He is not coming here to play ISP and that is for sure.

The "unfortunately" you mention is for you rather than him, as I have noted you are not partial to our Lolo.

Good. can't wait to see tui and not tedesco

Honestly I do not rate Lolohea. Given the effort the club is putting in to securing him and the talent that some of the forum members see in him, I hope I am wrong. However I am worried that he was a golden child at another club that has not developed in the last few years, and I am not sure that a change of club or position will rectify this. As tigers fans we could name pages of this up an coming superstars that have not kicked on.
Sadly the list of proven fullbacks available is shrinking by the week, and of those that are left, there is no-one that sets the world on fire.
I would be making offers to Gela-Moseby, Beale, Nicoll-Klokstad, Will Smith, Kurt Mann or Johnny Tuivasa-Sheck & Lolohea for reasonable amounts and see who signs. They can either make the position their own, or have utility/depth value to the club until we can throw money at a proven player at the end of next year.

You said you don't see the talent in TUI but then went on to say we should sign him :roll

What particular effort is the club putting in to sign him? They made him an offer and are waiting to see what happens…

What about Latrell Mitchell? Any chance we make a play for him to be our starting Fullback? You'd think he'd be on the outer now that Tedesco has signed. Surely the Roosters will need to offload some players now that Tedesco has signed. Oh wait, it's the Roosters, I forgot that the salary cap doesn't apply

I wouldn't doubt Lolohea. Not until he plays a few games for us. You are saying to offer all these players contracts when most of them are not even starting fullbacks. Lolohea is actually the best choice out of all of them because he has actually played games at fullback in first-grade and has experience. But I would agree on making reasonable offers for some of those young wingers as they all have talent but not at fullback.

For a reasonable amount. Has shown nothing to suggest he should be among the highest paid players in the club on a long term deal.

this is funny… :laughing:

Sorry Geo. I think I contributed to the off topic conversations..a couple of hours ago. I started talking about Elliott , CHN & others in this LoLo thread. But in my defence I got off the ferry and the pub on the whalf had happy hour.$5 craft beers that were 8%….i had a couple and started typing. Then I went into Aldi and bought $250 worth of ski jackets....which I'll return in the morning. Good night.
