Isn't Forster a prop? Good moves for them, and us in the long term, but we are incredibly short of cover in the front row.

He must be. Only Perry and Puletua are heavier according to Saints website (although it says he's a 2nd row on there)

Will be good to see how Nathan Ashe goes at SL level. With the injury to Wello, maybe we would be best advised to keep him and give him a run at full back rather than sending him out on loan?

I think Foster should be given a go at fullback first. He has potential there and he did good things last season on the wing.

I don't disagree but from all the youngsters pushing into the first team, Nathan Ashe is a very exciting prospect. He could rip it up big time.

looks like he'll get some time at wakey, a longer run in a first team will do him the world of good

Heard a murmor about Timana Tahu, anyone else heard anything?

Re: Rumours thread. : Wed Feb 23, 2011 5:43 pm  

Well it was said Wakey have give him an offer. If he's available and there's space for him I would hope we've got our hats in. World class player and would definately improve the team. With Wheeler carrying on his rich tea reputation then we may need another centre to fill the role. Meli or Lomax aren't the answer long term.

Tahus hardly an iron man.

Well yeah, but he's a lot more reliable injury wise than Wheeler.
