A project signing again. If he's good he'll be back in Australia in under 3 years.

If he is it'll probably mean he's played well so that might not be a bad thing.

In the WEP article, Wane mentions how much he loves the project type signings so I wouldn't be expecting anything other then one or two signings of this type.

That YouTube video of him certainly gets you excited about how good this kid could be but then as somebody pointed out, you could make a decent highlight guys reel for FPN.

True! You could make a highlight reel for many crap players making them look good!

Is that a rumour or hope? would love it to be true. I’ve heard many good things about his coaching ability.

See my earlier post, he/she regularly makes up random rumours for attention. Agree regarding Lam's coaching ability, I think he would come over as a head coach if he ever did come to SL though. He isn't far off an NRL head coach gig.

Good news I guess. I do like the idea of recruiting young up-and-coming Aussies rather than 30+ year olds.

More needed, though! And does this mean (or imply) that FPN is on his way?

Not sure what it means but I'm glad we're seeing some movement. Looks like he can play a similar role to Lockers and alternate between prop and 13. The clip of him shows he's a big unit with good feet and a bit of pace. 1st impression is a good one. It says recommended by Madge and Pat Richards!

I am hoping that he replaces Narvette and that a further signing will be announced re the replacement for FPN.
The video clip is more than likely from his agent however, he certainly looks the part and if MM and PR recommend him then that'll do for me in the short term.

Pat initially signed for 2 years as I recall and stayed on for 8, becoming a club legend! We never know, we could have a budding superstar who'll stay for years to come! optimism of the highest order eh?
