Dane Nielson has always impressed me.

Watch a lot of union mate?

 

[chigurh]

Does anyone remember if Neilson was any good in his origin stint? I genuinely can't remember.



Oh and LOL@50uff$ X 3

He went OK I thought - tackled his butt off, generally held his own and no major blunders. There's been plenty of worse Origin players in recent years

[POPEYE]

Nielsen is a storm fraud, one of the worst players I've seen play origin.

Yes, certainly can't match most of the Qld Origin players, whatever will he tell his grandchildren, nothing much to brag about other than the great teams he's won games with. Could've been a whole lot f**king worse, if he'd played for the Blues no-one would be signing him in '16

 

[Rabbits20]

Auva'a? He'll be there, those 2 garbage cans will battle for the other spot.

Goodwin is solid. Better than Nielsen.

A. Gray is solid too.

 

[Exsilium]

Default default default!

Until Goodwin plays a bad game and you turn on him again. You're a poster child for bipolar.

The Newcastle Knights and young forward Pauli Pauli have agreed to terms on a two-year contract, following a release from the Parramatta Eels.

Pauli made his NRL debut in 2014 and has played 33 NRL games to date with Parramatta.

“This is great news for the Club because Pauli certainly improves our squad,” coach Nathan Brown said.

“Pauli is a young forward and will continue to develop and improve his game at the Knights.

“He immediately adds good size to our forward pack and we look forward to welcoming him to the Club.”

The 21-year-old will attend the Knights’ training session on Saturday morning before taking part in the Members Season Launch

we're clearing him to make room for re-signing junior paulo

 

[DiegoNT]

we're clearing him to make room for re-signing junior paulo

Or getting back joseph paulo

 

[Rhyno]

He is a big loss

 

[natheel]

we're clearing him to make room for re-signing junior paulo

that's what my first thoughts were

He is a big loss

No he isn't really. we have back rowers and props that have shown in a shorter time at the club they can offer more

 

[Noname36]

Don't rate Pauli Pauli but we got him for dirt cheap and our current squad has been reduced to a skeleton so I don't have an issue with the signing. He's still young.

 

[Last Week]

I'd preferred to have kept him than lost him. But if he's the cost for an Australian centre, a position we need more than prop, so be it.

Interesting choice...what will he be doing in the next 2 years? Mormon mission?

It's a huge blow for the roosters, and how strange to announce it on the same day he signed an extension too :?
