If he does leave, we need to be using the quota spot and a big bump of the cap to tempt the 'next Fonua' over to SL. Use Fonua (and Moa) as an example of what we can do for a players career. Come over for 2/3 seasons, play well, develop, challenge for honours and then you've made it, and can go back to the NRL as a name.

If he goes I wouldn't replace him with an overseas player, I'd use that for a forward, keep Talanoa, him and Griffin on the wings with Naughton and Rawsthorne as back ups.

Just ignore him Jake. He's a dobbins troll so doesn't get to see any top flight action.
So because i'm a rovers fan i cant have an opinion and im trolling? righto pal. Bet your one of these left wing nutcases who accuses every brexit voting person as being a racist as well.
Back on point - Fonua is clearly having a great season and at his explosive best he is unreal. He's also a penalty machine, prone to a knock on and inconsistent. Consider his consistency levels to a minichello or ellis maybe will illustrate my point better. The others i mentioned i feel are more consistent and have greater attributes, doesn't mean he's a bad player.
