Certainly looks to be a Mau replacement.

Mau is pretty steady, good pro, but don't think he pulls trees up, I think for the wage he l be on we d get more value from a signing like Mellor who will also be steady if unspectacular, allowing us to either save abit of cash for debts, or put towards strengthenong elsewhere.

The unheralded signings often turn out to be the better ones.

I'd definitely be scouring that reserve grade in oz for a number r7 who can organise with a good all round game.

Brandon Wakeham looked decent for Fiji but he's more of a runner. One of the Nikorima boys would be a good addition but I don't think they'd leave the NRL.

How old is Trueman compared to Hookem?
Unless we’re looking at Hookem to switch to hooker?

Hopefully we’re making moves to lower the age of the team and bring more of the young players through

Johnstone, bowden etc have loads of effort and commitment but simply aren't good enough

The fans just like effort and commitment argument is a massive lie

Professional sport is about winning end of
