Wow, and they'll sign SJ another 2 years he wont want to leave NZ, Wahs definitely title contenders next year. Fish better than AFB, he leads the pack and plays big minutesMetcalf injury will be a blessing in disguise, TMM will only get better with SJ and be the first choice 5-8 next year, looking good wah wahs
AFB is better imo.Wow, and they'll sign SJ another 2 years he wont want to leave NZ, Wahs definitely title contenders next year.

Very different players for me. AFB is the explosive/high metres game breaker. JFH is the tough, hard nosed work horse/amazing leader. I'd have them as 2nd and 3rd best props in the comp behind Haas, so splitting hairs really. You couldn't ask for a better replacement if you were the Wahs, particularly as they almost got BHU instead.AFB is better imo.
Absolutely. JFH is a ****ing beast. They’ve lost nothing now. The Wahs window is wide openVery different players for me. AFB is the explosive/high metres game breaker.

So long as SJ can keep up this form they can compete.Absolutely. JFH is a ****ing beast. They’ve lost nothing now. The Wahs window is wide open
Strange signing.Canberra have extended Strange until 2028
Not sure he's that much of an upgrade above the likes of Jenkins is he?James Schiller just signs a 3 year deal with the knights.
Seems an odd one, although he looks quite good. Doesn't bode well for Ricky keeping him in the side for my supercoach benefit this year.James Schiller just signs a 3 year deal with the knights.
Right now most of the Knights fans I know hate Jenkins although they are quick to turn fans hahaNot sure he's that much of an upgrade above the likes of Jenkins is he?
Good question. I think he was always staying behind Hopoate but possibility if jumping Savage before maybe. Likely not now.Seems an odd one, although he looks quite good. Doesn't bode well for Ricky keeping him in the side for my supercoach benefit this year.
Penrith have turned their attention now towards Utoikamanu from the tigers to replace JFH.
I'd have Tino ahead of JFHVery different players for me. AFB is the explosive/high metres game breaker. JFH is the tough, hard nosed work horse/amazing leader.

TMM is average imo, I don't see it.Wow, and they'll sign SJ another 2 years he wont want to leave NZ, Wahs definitely title contenders next year.

Fair shout, I guess I was considering him a lock.I'd have Tino ahead of JFH
But isn't JFH for next year?Interesting tid bit to come out in all the JFH to Warriors news...
Carayannis also revealed the Panthers could have secured the services of Addin Fonua-Blake after Warriors officials approached the club regarding a swap deal.
He has a clause in his contract that if he doesn't play origin this season he can leave the tigersThat can not be allowed to happen
I’m guessing this was before AFB signed with us.But isn't JFH for next year?
Guess that would mean they both swap clubs now?
Dont know if AFB going to Panthers before coming to us would be good or bad for us.
On one hand it would be good experience for him, on the other if he wins a prem with panthers this year, he might not have as big of a desire to win one with us.
Best case would be he goes to the Panthers, they make the granny and lose it (against us would be classic) and it motivates him to get back there and win it with us.
