Not as much as a crowd favourite as Mahe Fonua but Faraimo has a slightly better try scoring ratio. Seems to have improved his discipline too.

He doesn’t have bad games , just quiet ones in my eyes . He’ll have a stormer in maybe 1 game out of 5 then 4 quiet ones , ok doesn’t make a lot of mistakes, but I’d like to see a bit more from him or another winger .

If we dont sign him there will be plenty of clubs that will.
Not the quickest,and makes a few errors but is very difficult to stop.
Happy to see him resigned.
We should use our quota spots on seconds rows,a front row and centre, assuming Mini,Manu and Kelly leave.
If Kelly stays we could get away with a second row,front row and centre.

If kelly stays we have connor, griffin and carlos for centre so don't need another one. paea, mini and manu to go along with bin man gives us 4 non fed spots to play with. Depending on what happens with green I'd say 1 or 2 big props and a big 2nd rower. Backs are OK if we keep ratu and faraimo but if we could find a winger like fonua then would certainly add to the squad

I can't see Kelly leaving, unless we simply don't make an offer.

What do you mean? Kelly is already contracted until end 2020.

I thought this was his last season, AP said Kelly was playing for an NRL deal?

honest apologies if I got that wrong

His new 2 year deal was announced last year at the Cas game when Westerman made his comeback.

Kelly is a spent force and for a sake of his health should retire gracefully
If Shaul gets another consussion this season then he may have to make a big call

The movie concussion isn’t a pipe dream or a Disney Classic

Re: Recruitment 2020 : Fri Apr 19, 2019 6:08 pm  

3 new players have already signed on the dotted line for next season, apparently.

No idea who or where from, and I guess that I'll be proved right eventually anyway, but the signs are looking promising.

Didn't think that Kelly looked a spent force today, but what do I know?

Re: Recruitment 2020 : Fri Apr 19, 2019 6:12 pm  

Kelly is the best spent force I’ve ever seen pull on a black and white shirt

Re: Recruitment 2020 : Fri Apr 19, 2019 6:24 pm  

As harsh it sounds on Shaul if Kelly stays Connor at full back seems a far better option. Our attack completley transforms.
