i dont have a picture to misread how happy/unhappy he is about signing for us.

Very similar height/weight ratio to James Harrison. Looking forward to seeing how he goes. He's obviously got a bit of pace if he's played centre so that's no bad thing.

He couldn't even be bothered to pose for a picture? His heart obviously isn't in it.

Interesting that he played on the wing until a few years ago. Was on the left wing against Tonga in the World Cup '22.

I picked up a video of him scoring one & not scoring one (by touching the white line) whilst playing on the left wing for PNG. He has also played in the Nines Competition which suggests he quite enjoys space. Donkeys don't usually play in Nines Tournaments. https://www.nrl.com/news/2022/10/19/thi ... r-russell/

Akauola started as a prop for us and ended up on the wing. I also recall Finau playing prop one week and then winger the next.

Sita was a winger in the NRL as well on occasion I seem to remember.

Bullock was a winger too initially, Tony Clubb a centre.

Going the other way…
Iestyn Harris was a sidestepping ball player prop as a kid.
