Maybe Yeaman wants to retire. People calling for him to be re-signed but he's at the age where he'll be looking at his options and if there's a long term job on the table he might have already decided to go.

Very good signing in a position that's remained a challenge for us - even with everyone fit this year the incumbent centres are a winger and a veteran enjoying an Indian summer. If we sign a 6, I see the wingers as 2 from Talanoa, Fonua and Naughton (who is cover for Shaul) and Carlos and Griffin first choice centres with Logan, Yeaman and possibly Turgut as back up, all needing to impress to earn the shirt.
Griffin's stats and try return are very good. Looking forward to seeing him in the hoops.

His attacking is impressive, got deceptive pace for a big guy, a lot of his meters are made returning the ball on the 1st and 2nd play, which is always handy, as you have a big pack and tend to run out of steam. His defence is suspect though, tends to have a habbit of getting dragged in and shooting off the line. Now I see him a a neutral, I'd say he's a massive improve on Yeaman, good luck to the guy.
Hugely disagree. The reason we pull away from teams in the last quarter is due to the fitness of our pack. Griffin will add what is already a great set of players at coming out of backfield in Talanoa and Fonua

Spot on. Not one of our pack tires. In fact they get better as the game goes on... watts Taylor and ellis are phenomenal
