Is that why he's been playing in the centres recently after playing his whole career to date on the wing?

It could well be. Apparently him and his misses are from WA, so we have little chance of keeping him.

No, that's because Brett Morris is going to be played on the wing, and hoppa was supposed to go to the centres to accomodate Morris. So to get both in the team, it means that Rona needed to be moved to centres, which he is more than capable of playing.

Really it's our best team on the park, and if Rona decides to stay, it will be because he was told he can remain at centre if he likes it and the extra pay is enough. Though I don't doubt that Rona would probably play for Australia if he went to the force, which would mean that we just couldn't compete with those financial top ups for a back.

IIRC, Rona played a fair bit in the centres in Toyota Cup for the Roosters. He only moved to the wing when the Cowboys played him in first grade.

Surely Lolohea to leave the Warriors in 2017? There was a story that his manager was contacted by up to 5 clubs in the 24 hours after he was restricted to 3 minutes on Saturday night.

That story reeks of a player manager working the media to put pressure on his current club.

It will all come down to what Tui dies now. If he sulks and starts throwing his toys out the cot then there's probably no point in keeping him. If he steps up and works for his spot he'll be kept.

The other factor is whether or not Cappy is even the coach next year and that will all depend on what happens over the next 7 weeks.
