Cheers. So that's another speculation gone. I can't see us making a big prop signing for 2017.

Charlie Gubb wouldn't have been a big prop signing.

 

[Shark Magnet]

Totally agree. Between the Tigers form over the last few years and NSW SOO, Farah hasn't won a lot of footy games in the last few years. NSW stuck with him and kept losing, and the Tigers play so much better without him. And he's not young. Why bother.

His form, and also attitude and behaviour could destabilise any culture Flanno is building.

We need three props/tight forwards. Replacements for Heighno, Taga and D. Fifita. At least one who could develop into a starter.

I would be trying to get Luciano, Vaughan and Abraham Papalli. Sign Papalli and Luciano on 3 year deals, since they are both very young. It wouldn't be expensive to sign the trio. Vaghan would fit straight into our top 17 and Luciano and Papalli would pop in and out of first grade as needed with most likely one of them getting a consistent bench spot.

Fairly sure Luciano is an edge back rower?

 

[D.D]

Lose Taga and Heighno.

Bring in Sims, Fensom and a young big boy.

re we sure Nelson Asofa-Solomona is not available. The Courier mail still has him as off contract with the Storm. He would be a massive boost. Leluia is built like an old style prop and would fit right in to that space as he matures.

Storm announced him plus 4 others this morning had re-signed.

Barely a first grader.

Yeah he is. Bukuya can play in the middle as a tight forward. If we had 4 prop rotation wouldnt matter so much.

 

[Capital_Shark]

Mary might play him on an edge but the kid is a middle forward

True. But he's still further up the food chain than a lot of what's available for 2017.

no way

he has dominated the juniors as an edge player and is playing well on the edge here

You sure, alot of the footage I saw on Youtube etc certainly had him playing edge ?

Nene McDonald (Titans) signed 3 year deal with drags. Wonder who the drags are targeting to replace rein, marshal and quinlan.

 

[Tiger Shark]

talks of McInnes to the Dragons if Souths sign Farrah.

Probably someone from the Brighton Seagulls under 12's. Nobody would notice the difference.

All these jokes would normally make me laugh, till the turds made us play dragon-ball and did a number on us the other week.
