I don't need to see the clips , I prefare to watch the full games . It's my opinion from what I've seen of him since his debut in 2012 .

It does seem odd that Melbourne would let their only home grown player go if he was all that.

That said, we couldn't attract a young NRL regular player so I wouldn't be unhappy if we got a young NRL irregular.

Often works that way in the nrl. Good players often move away. Koribete wasnt good enough for wests. At melborne now n would get a gig at pretty much any team. Why wouldnt roosters have mooved heaven and earth to keep roger t shek?

No where near. Hudds n catalan offered more than we're paying

Eh? That could still mean he's the highest paid, you know?

How do people know how much we will pay a player who is not even in the country, how that is being funded and to top it off, who was also making an offer to the player and how much each offer was for the player.

They don't. They just like to give the impression they do. It makes them feel Important in their virtual world.

Or you could be told how cats and hudds had offererd more but frank stuck with his word to motu. Thus was probably 6/8 weeks ago. Then he signed and I read in league weekly how cats and hudds hadchased him. So went with it. Same guy told me the day before that taylor would be in paper next day (signed) and told me about paea 2days b4 it broke and even which team. Sometimes people just get to know stuff.
Gone off the boil lately tho. Told me macshane had signed and that carlos was a no.

So youve decided that a kid only 22 now and as a 19yr old was crap.
I saw him come on today and plays strong. Makes big metres. Set himself up for a try and had 1ruled out. Keeping average at 1 try every other game. Playing from centre.

Three times St George went down Melbourne's left and Fonua was defensively beat . What big metres did he make ? . He fell over the try line for both his efforts .
