From the games I saw him play this year for Flegg he wasn't amazing. You'd hope they'd dominate that level if they're to play first grade.

I've tempered my expectations a bit on him
takes a bit for a first grader to find his feet after a year off. Would think it would be a bit harder for a less professional kid

Whose the better prospect does everything think? Luala or Jensen? Add in Ferris also.

From very limited exposure to all three I'd guess
Ferris (assuming can stay healthy)
Lualua
Jensen

Tigers are desperate for cotric but the mail is his preference is to go back to Canberra.

A mate who follows the Tigers reckons they might be poaching Ferris.

Whilst I appreciate that Ferris is probably on a pretty minimal deal and if Tigers are offering him some money he might feel the need to take that offer but also feel he owes us a bit. He's never finished a full season due to injury, often missing alot of football and he's been with us for a while now. I'd like the faith we've shown him to be repaid a bit and would hate to see him get injury free and kick on at another club.

Again he needs to earn a living and maybe the Sharks deal just isn't enough ?

The Tigers have offered him minimum wage apparently.

They are very thin for centres, the only reason I could see him going is for opportunity.

If he stays healthy he would be right in the running for a centre spot with us you'd think

You would think so. the Ikuvalu signing could scare him off a little, but only if he was all but guaranteed a start at the Tigers you'd think

May also be a bit wary of the potential surprise packet from that other code .

Not so sure of that one, but I hear Ikuvalu is training the house down... so Ferris would only get a shot when Iku's in Origin camp or after he's been poached back to the Roosters.

Sometimes it’s sucks being the development program
