Would expect Seyfarth to be player #30 on a bare minimum contract. Is very young, works very hard and will improve. Eiso would’ve cost more and is 28 or 29 so I can understand the decision salary cap wise.

They could possibly extend Seyfarth’s contract for a couple of more years and keep him in the Canterbury Cup system and see how he matures.

that kid from NQ

Are you talking about Simpkins ? Have we got him.

Tamou is a good start, but Blore and Stefano are rookies. I hope they live up to our expectations.

Apparently it was close last time I heard about it. We also have a couple of edge backrowers in lower grades. I honestly think Blore and Leilua , is a formidable second row combo , with McIntyre at 13. Blore and McIntyre make really good contact In defence. It’s rare , they are passive. Mikalele and Twal , really have to work on this , as too many of thier first contacts are Aaron woods level pillow . And it just kills any chance in winning the attrition .

Right, so that would be a no we haven’t signed Simpkins?

Plus there was no contact with the shoulder. Doehi hit him with his back.

Yes I think some of these refs need to go back into the education system if they think the shoulder is attached to the someone’s back. 🤬

3 Doueihi
2 Brooks
1 Asu Kapaoa

What was clear tonight which really was the story all year.

1. We need a fullback with top end speed enter the .

2. We need some big tough front rowers we couldn’t handle Paulo. Enter Tamou and Utoikamanu. I

3. Douhiei is a 5/8 and better with Brooks. Exit Marshall.

4. Kepoa starts on a wing and Talau replaces Mbye.

5. BJ has to come back I top condition a game breaker when fit.

We need a goal kicker which is a massive issue.

I thought Tommy looked better than BJ especially in defence

I think both Tommy and A.K are going to serve the WTs very well in the future with more experience and game time. But I have to say I love this Asu Kapaoa kids confidence nothing seems to faze him and you can see he improves with each game his played.

@supercoach said in Signing Suggestions & Rumours:

With limited roster positions do you resign Huth or McIntyre???The Huff was very good tonight although Iam a fan of slamming Sam

Huth is on the WTs official list for players departing this year so that looks like a no for him.

Garner again stuffs up doesn’t he know how to pass.

I bags Adam for 5/8 next year.
