I'd be surprised if he's out and out scouting for us but I bet if he sees some bopper downunder that he thinks will do a job up here, I bet he'll get on the blower to DP to let him know, and then for him to have a look for himself. He may be our man on the ground down under, as much as you can have one in SL or the championships.

I could be wrong but doesn’t Andrew Fifita have some sort of coaching role now at the sharks. Him and david putting players our way.

Plus South's coach

According to DP Caleb has ambitions to play for England

That is good for us. Let’s hope his performances reflect that.

Fifita certainly did show some loyalty to the club.

On the playing front he was good for us, but I think he was at his peak in 2016,17 & 18,but I think after his injury, he was never quite the same player. I also look back to who the other props were too, and in those early years we had the likes of England, Arona and Huby who were always making an impact. You look in those sides of 2019 onwards and the other forwards made nowhere the same impact.

Some tbough are quick to forget the tracker incident.

He had good and bad.

Anyway, this post is about Caleb Uele, welcome onboard Caleb

Ta very much mate.....love you too

2 steps behind you FiIL, didn’t read the other page what you wrote , class that the Fifita brothers are pushing these players out way.

Clearly David had a number of issues whilst at the club, a court case with his wife I recall, him and his brothers support for a so called one punch killer and so on. it's all on Google. What we need to remember is these lads are in their twenties for the most part, and we all did things at that age that we either regret, or would approach differently now. I don't think David was especially susceptible to such things, probably more that by Trinity standards he was fairly high profile.

There is a certain amount of mystery around the tracker incident, I've heard more than one account, but in the grand scheme of things I don't think it made a massive difference to what David achieved at the club.

Slightly off topic and FWIW, and as a bit of fun, this is how I rate 'legends'. I think there are three kinds of legends, and this applies to most clubs.

True legends - Players like Neil Fox, Rocky Turner, David Topliss. Players whose abilities and achievements cannot be argued with. Not just by Trinity fans, but fans of the game.

Club legends - These are players that mean far more to Trinity fans than the wider game. Nigel Bell, JD and loads of others fall into this category. In terms of honours and trophies they have few, and only Trinity fans really remember them. To the wider game they are but footnotes, but to us they were heroes.

The nearly boys - Fifita is one of these, so is Tom Johnstone. These are players who had they been in a better Trinity set up that may well have won Trophies, they would undoubtedly be the star men, and would most definitely have become true legends. Through no fault of their own, and in both of the above cases, an incredible loyalty to the club, they never got the chance.

I'd like to know who you think you could have bought with the same money - which I assume you don't actually know but we can guess - that would have "won us some tight games"
