Well, the club has obviously showed interest in him, meaning he would accommodate the wing position. If the club feel they need to sign a winger, I will support that. I know we have different views, but when I mentioned Ravalawa, and he is 4 years younger than Sivo who will be 31 before the start of next season, I personally thought it was worth looking at.
It also seems funny that everyone was looking forward to Blake Ferguson until he returned to Oz. He would have also have taken a quota spot back then, but that was ok then for everyone, but not now.

Although we did choose to use the quota spot freed up when Ferguson left on a prop, rather than a replacement winger, as our squad did look a prop light at the time.


I’m struggling to see which non-quota options there are to the required quality to fill the gaps at prop, second row and loose forward. But they must feel they have them if they are looking at another overseas back, on top of Armstrong as well as still talking to Leutele.

Totally agree with that. That's how i see it also.

How about a left-field suggestion for Loose Forward - Monsieur Catalans - Ben Garcia. He is not a quota spot and Les Dracs have been stocking up on Loose Forwards.

I have wondered about that. He’s signed on for another couple of years there, but Partington won’t be going there to be second choice

was we looking because aussies say they will pay proportion of his £295000 wages

i wonder what % they are prepared to pay?

otwithstanding our priorities may lie in other positiond what would you pay to have these 2 in our squad?

I honestly don't know.

I've seen anything of either of the wingers mentioned to be able to say whether they would be an upgrade on Charnley or McIntosh, but I wouldn't be disappointed to see Charnley and McIntosh as our starting wingers next year, with Leutele and Hanley as the starting centres. But we will need some more depth.

I'm very surprised at the lack of reports on incomings. If they have players signed up, they've done a very good job of keeping it away from the likes of Matt Shaw and Aaron Bower.
