Given that nobody's come up with credible or exciting names for new centres, other than Matt Cooper, what is anyones' opinion on Seitamata Sa, who's OOC from the Catalans?

Genuine question as I haven't seen much of him but he's looked good when I have.

Re: New Centre : Thu Jul 07, 2011 3:42 pm  

would have him. He has great hands and is a big fooker!

Re: New Centre : Thu Jul 07, 2011 3:49 pm  

I'd give Hall a game or two there. With him probs being back for the Catalans game, and the Webb/Hardaker/Jones-Bishop back 3 having been so good last week, LC seems to be the natural place to try him. Maybe an X7 for sunday of

Webb
Hardaker
Smith
Hall
Jones-Bishop
Sinfield
McGuire
Bailey
Buderus
Peacock
Jones-Buchanan
Delaney
Ablett

Burrow
Leuluai
Clarkson
Kirke

He is a big lump.

Would prefer to see watkins in the centre. Leave hall on the wing. in future sure he could fill in at centre but like many have said leave him on the wing

Is this information as reliable as Webb moving to Widnes being nailed on?

Get Inglis and put him at prop just because he may be big enough.

Re: New Centre : Thu Jul 07, 2011 7:58 pm  

I'm pretty sure Junior Sau is OOC at Newcastle at the end of this season but i doubt he'll be leaving the Knights nevermind the NRL. Wouldn't mind Steve Matai, think he's contract may be up unless he's signed a new one this year.
Matt Cooper has just signed a new 2 year deal at the Dragons IIRC, so he'll be finishing his career with them.
Joel Reddy is another one OOC at the Eels but i'm sure the Bulldogs were sniffing about to replace Idris and i doubt the Eels want to lose him although he's not a great player anyway.
If we dont get a top quality centre then i'd rather not get one at all, signing another centre like Delaney would be pointless IMO, Delaney is a good backrower but not centre and i'd rather see some youngsters brought through.

Isn't he a pillock?

Re: New Centre : Thu Jul 07, 2011 10:00 pm  

With regards to SA being OOC i doubt he'd get a visa he's got form down under and was also charged for brawling in Leeds not long ago.
Ls14 When did Cooper sign a new deal?

Re: New Centre : Fri Jul 08, 2011 12:24 am  

You guys .... shucks ! It's taken you all a long time for you to come around to my idea of trying BJB and Hall in the centres in preference to Delaney and Senior, but you all got there at long last. With Watkins and Wilson we have more starting options to complement that highly anticipated major new threequarter signing ( Tom Briscoe ? )

However, you're all forgetting to throw Chisholm into the threequarter mix for 2012 ... An apparent classic archetypal type winger with pace to burn.

Hardaker should be starting stand off for 2012.....forget Chase now.

No more average at best Aussies please.

A new Ali would be good.
