Isn't he the guy that Reece had in his back pocket the other year?

I could see Chris selling him as described like a car,
well it doesn't always start first time but when you get it running its got a good strong engine, it has is moments of stalling now and again but I'm sure it can be tweaked a bit, MOT he's had a prang and he's been fixed, bit a tape though is holding him together, consumption is heavy so might need to feed more than usual, normally carries for people

Low meterage and comes with a 2 day unconditional warranty.

If Pauli can manage the minimum, if not the bare minimum on the field, has anybody else wondered what his attitude is like off the field?
CC might just want him out of the camp.

We appear to base our opinion on PP because of one performance and criticism. To make it acceptable to some we suggest he may be a problem off the field. We forget that not that long ago he played 76 minutes. I watched him against Widnes, I don’t remember him missing any tackles and in return was difficult to actually tackle.
I would say let’s not get carried away and take it in face value we needed a centre and we needed PP to get game time. If he had a problem we would not have signed him again last season.

Good bit of business I say.

I think that we have got all we can out of Pauli and our patience has run out

I’m well aware where Sau plays musson, and why we signed him...I gave my thought on it a few posts back...

Maybe I should have used the quote feature but I was replying to sacred cow about signing another back row forward!

Ahhhhh right

Yes please use the quote function
It looked like you thought Sau was a back row

No he's the guy some said that about but many thought it had either been the other way round or at best a very even match up. I'm sure the posts are still available.

Excellent post

It makes sense certainly in the short term I think we can all agree on that.

PP will always split opinion but we are not short in the forwards especially with the imminent return of Huby and Ashurst and the rise of Crowther. Also Hirst now looks competent at this level whilst King imo has been a great all action signing.

The backs are decimated. TJ and Arundel won’t play again this year. Tupou will but how long will it take for him to find his form? MCB is a winger, he’s to much pace to be in the centres. I think Kershaw is doing well but he’s still green and will need resting.

We need that punch in the wide channels and Junior has been offering that for years.

What happens after the month who knows but this looks one hell of a good sticking plaster for now. Shrewd I’d call it.
