Tupou has been incredible this year imo.

He has learnt that with his frame and running hard he can knock ****s over.

And he's a freak when it comes to scoring in the corner

I picked him at the start of the year to have a big season. Just seemed like he was waddling around for a few years after his Origin selection. Hasn't hit the heights I thought he would this year, but I'd still take him. Lee and Topou on the edges would be scary for opposition players trying to take bombs ingoal

sharks have apparently signed a young gun from north queensland.

20 year old Braden Uele

112kg played for junior kiwis.

apparently this kid is a weapon and the cowboys are devastated to have lost him.

That's True , he reckons this as well

It's a good thing Melbourne Storm rising star Curtis Scott played NRL last week

The mail is, the powerful 19-year-old centre who scored two tries against North Queensland, has struggled living in Melbourne and was looking to move back to Sydney

In the same article it's got the Dragons are keen to offer Gal a deal. LOL.

I'd imagine we'd be looking at Scott for sure.
Loots staying is great news.
Uele is a top notch pickup.

Advice to younger players: Don't be afraid to fail

One of the standouts in Todd Payten’s 2015 Cowboys NYC team, New Zealand-born prop Uele was rewarded for his efforts with a two-year Cowboys NRL squad deal.

Playing behind a slew of entrenched first-grade front-rowers, the 21-year-old was always going to have to bide his time.

A solid season with the Mackay Cutters can only enhance his prospects of suiting up for the Cowboys in the top-flight competition in 2017.
