Thought Tepai Moroea looked decent at 8 for Cook Islands.

We were linked with him before announcing Jenkins/Palasia.

Heading to SL apparently, good pick up for someone.

Sivo finally confirmed I think he'll be really good for us in SL.

For those who maybe don't know much about him from the NRL, he's big and strong and will score tries for fun, he can make the odd error in the game but can take that if he's scoring a try every other game.

He was really good for Fiji this morning scored 2 tries and made a great try assist from an offload for Michael Jennings to score his hatrick, again he came up with a couple of errors his first carry lost it in contact and dropped a bomb kick in the 2nd half.

Someone mentioned previously he'll be like Hurrell rocks and diamonds and that probably is true however Sivo is probably better value as like I say if we get our attack clicking he could be scoring every other game imo and will definitely bring x factor too our backline.

Its what we need in the back line.

Added reliability with dropping Fusi, back up for Newman with Connor / kids and strong start to sets with Hall etc.

I think we have enough strike in the backs now not to make the mistake we made with Hurrell, which was to lob him the ball and expect to smash through tackles on his own goal line. If we play to Sivo's strengths he's perfectly capable of getting us 25 tries this season. I'm sure Arthur will have the nouse to come up with a game plan to achieve that.

Just need to suck in defenders with hard runs into the middle and give him a few metres of space

Yeah - much prefer him than lisone if being honest

He's just not been able to kick the team around or trouble the opposition.


Frawley is a one trick pony. Drop of the shoulder fools nobody.

Given we've binned people with contracts, I'd have hoped he'd go too.

I'm not sure how you'd describe him as really good yesterday. A game where a few important good stats cover over some really poor play. I'm not at all saying his signing won't be good but he was all over the place under the high ball in attack and defence, made some handling errors and did get smashed a couple of times, and the opposition weren't much.

If, as some people are suggesting, we go with a left winger, a left winger at left centre, and a left winger at right wing, I’d be loathe to see the fastest player in the squad, Handley moved from left wing. If we did play all 3, Sivo appears to carry right handed so he’s no 2, and let Ryan Hall bust a few holes at left centre for Handley to exploit.

I don't think I've ever seen a game where Sivo didn’t play left wing. Given that we've just splashed big money for him I doubt we'll be shifting to the other flank.
