Zane Tetevano

Garbutt is in for another knee operation apparently. Missed a majority of the last 2 months of the year at KR and was short on games with us at Leeds the year before. Tony Smith quoted as saying something along the lines of 15-20 games next year is what they expect from him. Unfortunately I think his injury troubles are what will keep him from being signed by a top 5 team.

Wiki reference..

Domestic violence conviction
In 2014, Tetevano pled guilty and was sentenced to at least nine months jail for bashing his then girlfriend on four separate occasions.[19] However, the jail time was overturned on appeal.[20] During the appeal Judge Roy Ellis was "impressed with his rehabilitation", and Tetevano's commitment to living "a simple life",[21] while his lawyer argued that he had "no desire to return to the toxic environment that the NRL invites".[22]

Seems like a nice guy...

He's a top player but a knob. We're not signing him anyway.

Told Tetevano could happen now but it's a tricky one. That's all I know.

I heard Sam Lisone

Some fancy names bandied about that sound like countdown letter selections ,but are these players any good or just more temperamental ,financial drains on the club ?

Tetevano is a brilliant player. Would be an excellent signing.

We just need any players we do sign from Down under to do the biz when they come over here. We see a lot of these players work rate & commitment fade when they arrive at Manchester airport.
