You reckon there was no demand for Fa'aoso, Champion, Wicks and Robinson? If any of these guys were available for second tier prices they would have had every club in the NRL queuing up to sign them. That would push their prices well into the top 25 range.

Champion was top 17 for Souths at the start of the year, and Fa'aoso was top 17 for top four clubs in his final two years before he 'retired'. His neck is no longer a problem. He is cleared to play and will be top 17 for sure.

Wicks and Robinson are probably both 'cheap' but almost certainly top 25.

I'm sure a heap of teams were chasing a bloke who has just come back from a broken neck, a drug dealer who hasn't played in 4 years. A bloke who is injured more then Willie Tonga and one of the biggest cats in the NRL who makes Luke Burt looks like Greg Inglis lol.

Yeah really high in demand, thank god we beat all those other clubs to the punch.

Prison didn't seem to do Ma'u any harm. Then there was that nobody forward who went alright for Manly about 10 years ago, at least until the PEDs wore off. No reason why Wicks won't be any good.

Anyway, I think it's only fair we give past offenders a fair go. I mean, who can honestly say they've never run a serious drug operation or kerbstomped some guy?

Does anyone see J.Uelsai getting anywhere near first grade? I know a few tipped him as a smokie at the start of 2014.He is a big unit- 6'5. Him an Alvaro seem big enough just don't know there skill set.
Guys that know them please share some info-thanks

Ualesi has a pretty big motor and a handy offload. If he is able to get onto the paddock for Wenty in the NSW cup more often this year you just never know. I think in 2013 according to Forty he was our MVP in the 20's.
