Could definitely player centre here, Nene McDonald was a winger in the NRL but made the transition to Centre.

Been brilliant this year. never played less than 19 games in a season, big and strong, makes breaks and loads of meters.

The fact he was offered another NRL contract shows how well he is players.

No doubting his ability, but is he the right position.

That leadership group of Ese'ese, Asiata and Rapana doesn't look too bad

We're all quotad up now so no Opacic. He's moving back home to Q cup. Must be family reasons he's going back as he'd surely pick up another SL team

What if Carlos retires and Ligi goes off to be a firefighter?

Carlos quota place has gone, I defiantly move Sao on if possible, sign a domestic forward and sign a quota centre

You'd guess Sao is at risk if we are still looking to recruit overseas. If we could move him on and sign a centre I'd be all for it

I know Sao has brain farts and poor discipline but we'd struggle to find a middle forward to replace him domestically

Sao is still a decent prop but does his pros outweigh his stupidity? Probably not for me, if we have a chance to replace him with a better player either domestically or oversees we should take it.

One area Rapana can massively improve us is clearing our own line. We've struggled big time this year on exit sets. Our backs don't pack the same punch that Tuli, Fonua, Faraimo, etc used to. Rapana is a big frame and if he's returning the ball from full back he can get our exit sets starting on the front foot.

Reading the Raiders fans comments he is massively respected and just about everyone of them are gutted that he's leaving. It's almost like the club are in mourning over his departure.

As you say it's what position he'll play. I think it'll have to be full back. Over his career he's only played centre 10 times last being 3 years ago according to RL project. The vast majority of the games have been on the wing but this season he's played mostly full back.

Unless we pay a transfer fee which is unlikely.
