Sio Siua Taukeiahos not homesick is he?​


Pretty sure he said he took the Catalans deal because he refused to play against the roosters.

He also said he didn't want to block Tuks way into first grade so would be pretty ironic if he did some how end up here

Wighton to the bunnies is gaining traction. Apparently willing to take a mil less over 4 years to go there.
It's a lot of money to spend on your centres... going to have to sacrifice somewhere else.

Also, a lot of money to spend on someone who'll be 31 years old before next season (which also goes for Canberra/Dolphins).

... and a lot of money to spend on someone who is currently playing shithouse and almost single-handedly lost the game for his team last week.

Could he be Maloney'ing it? If he knows he's going is possible I guess, though it would take in the face of the Ricky love-fest narrative

Maybe. Could just be the situation getting in his head too. I reckon those couple of months where Adam Reynolds was in contract limbo were the worst footy he has ever played. Came good once the uncertainty was behind him.

Mate I would never pay for it. I also would not give him a 4 year deal. 3 Max. 2 would be the smart one.

He isn't an organising half where it makes sense that age can be a benefit. The way he plays he will likely not be great the last two years of his contract.

Taukeiaho is only 1 year older than Wighton. Cmon Fitz make it happen. ;)

Don't let the big Wighton/RTS news of the day distract you from the fact that Fox/Daily Telegraph are reporting the obvious fake rumour that Wests Tigers are looking to sign Amone and Schuster.

For those that want us to sign NAS. From the courier mail;

Melbourne are growing increasingly confident that forward powerhouse Nelson Asofa-Solomona is ready to commit to the club.

Asofa-Solomona, off contract at the end of the year, has been the subject of a big-money bid by the Dolphins.

He has also been in the sights of rugby union, both in Australia and across the Tasman. However, the Storm believe that big Nelson is on the verge of committing his future to the club in what would be a huge boost.

All the leaks stopped with BWB avoiding the forums

As for Wighton, release every player we have and pay him whatever he wants to play in the halves for us so we can finally shift Nicho to centre and start winning some games

If only we could clone Nicho 6 times so we could have a full backline of Nicho’s!

If the Wighton to Souths comes to fruition, id happily take Tass off Bunnies for the left centre position

Have to say i reckon Tass is a bit of a door stop for AJ , backline moves to the left often seem to stall at Tass , he's only 23 games in so i'm sure there's improvement , but not for me .
