I think Tetevano gets the honour of being our worse ever forward signing since the days of Illawarra prop Peter Smith !! ( also thought Trent Merrin was dire too )

Mitch Achurch was the worst…..there’s a good player somewhere in TeT, just not sure we’ll see it

All opinions but there were games when Merrin ran his blood to water, and made some key contributions to keeping us up in games like Cas away.

Achurch had a decent run where he won a couple of MOM as I recall, until he got injured (again)

I've never seen Tet do anything remotely half decent.

Add to this Tet will be on at least double what Achurch was.

Understand Bentley made over 60 tackles , he missed 9 but Is often trying desperately to get out and nail players early.

With better round him I reckon he’ll get better and better in the next few years.

Mitch didn't cost a fortune.

He will and Smith will know this.

If we're not trying to work on a deal to release Tetevano behind the scenes, then we really should be.

Hull have recently done similar with Reynolds (on Marquee) and now Wire with Toby King (also on big money)

Over to you Gary.

What happens if we sack Tetevano, does he still have to be paid off?

The concern is who in either the NRL or SL would want him. He has been absolutely awful.

jI don't think we have any grounds to sack him.We can't pay him off as that would count towards the cap.

You may find he is on more than five times the money Achurch was on
