Tetavano is not and never will be a loose forward, even in that modern ”middle” role. He’s not a super league std prop either completely ineffective. I’d honestly only play him when we have no one else. hope he gets “homesick”

He has been a disappointment but he's a better player than you have painted him.

Fingers crossed they don't re-sign him next year lol. He's deffo nothing special at LF but he will add a bit of bulk early on. If he can put in some solid performances together instead of in and out bans he should at least be useful in not over using the younger players and general rotation.

He’s not. He’s on marquee money but Mitch Achurch and Nathan Peteru were better, and they were not up to much. Jyst watch him tonight against PNG hardly notice he’s on the field. All things considered he’s F**king c**p and in the too 5 maybe too 3 worst over seas signing ever.

Tetevano was a solid rotation prop in good NRL sides and for NZ. For some reason we signed him as our number one prop, pack leader etc, a role he's never played. It's not his fault we didn't look past his career appearances to how he actually plays. That lack of due diligence sums up why our overseas recruitment has been so hit and miss over the last few years.
Given our signings Tetevano is at least likely to be back playing the role that suits him. Daft that he's on marquee money but we can't change that.
