Fetuli wouldn’t get a gig in reserve grade any more, he was lucky to even get a few NRL games under his belt, hands like feet & no positional awareness whatsoever, if I remember rightly, Bellamy thought his most dangerous attribute was his fast play the ball, good to see he’s milked super league with minimal talent

Nobody hated him per se, we just understood his lack of ability

Shhhhhh, you can't go such things, you'll start upsetting the cheerleaders here, they think he's the equivalent to Eric Grothe.
At this level he's done okay the last couple of years but has never improved his main failings, he's decently powerful, makes good metres out the 20 and isn't shy of getting smacked around a bit when going for the corner and seems to be a likeable and popular member of the team and with fans. With a team like ours as it is he'll get a few chances but that would apply to pretty much most wingers in SL. I stand by what I said upthread in that I think we should have been letting fresh legs have a crack but he's a safe option in some regards that doesn't cost much.

I'm guessing you're not one of the fans that Fetuli brought the joy to that your owner references then? He's not necessarily the silkiest of finishers, but I guess it depends what you want out of your wingers. He fits in well with our coaches mantra.

It's a different game over here I guess. For mine, he's demonstrated more ability for us than players who came over with a huge rep like Shaun Berrigan and Frank Pritchard.
