Shaul was great for our 2nd try against Cas. Joined the line late, all eyes on Connor but Jamie gets the ball and delivers to Naulago.

He has really improves that part of his game. Two years ago he wouldn't have passesd.

He will do for me “C for Cuckoo” possible Great Britain international

Hope it's true regarding Ma'u. Not particularly youthful but started late so should have a few good years left. Decent article about him.... https://www.smh.com.au/sport/nrl/the-sc ... 51jup.html

Not sure how close we are to a deal .

If we can get Ma'u, Sao, Fonua and another prop, our recruitment will have been outstanding.

Agreed, really exciting. Hope the 4th is an Islander too!

Manu M'au has signed for Hull FC according to his wiki page. Ok, which one of you scallywags was it! Excellent replacement for Sika if true.

Re: Recruitment 2020 : Thu Jun 20, 2019 3:15 pm  

Manu and Mini signings were announced in mid August 2014, so it could be a long 2 months to wait.

Plus Jones and savelio mid this season. Would be outstanding recruitment but I cant see how we could fit them all in the cap. Maybe RIP up swifts contract

Re: Recruitment 2020 : Thu Jun 20, 2019 4:32 pm  

Looks like we are going for a skinnier first team squad, supplemented by Academy players and trialists (inc. those from Union)
Maybe Bureta not being retained?
We’re going to be losing quite a lot, many who are just squad players. Big juggling act if we can fit in those names mentioned as possible signings
