Thought I'd have a serious look at the new(ish) guys :
Patrick Ah Van Utility back 17/03/1988 183cm 91kg - this player is only 17 and will be a centre, the like of which is rarely seen. He is a centre, not a stand-off or a full-back.
Paul Atkins Fullback/winger 17/12/1982 178cm 83kg - shows signs but is not consistent
Andreas Bauer Utility back 26/09/1982 179cm 91kg - an amazing utility back, but wont get a go. His name is not in the important note books
Sonny Fai Loose forward/second row 20/03/1988 192cm 105kg - young, has a heap of talent and a goodly bit of mongrel.
Marvin Filipo Winger/centre 20/03/1987 181cm 89kg - not for mine, was a magic junior player but has not repeated.
George Gatis Hooker 25/03/1978 175cm 86kg - who the f**k is George
.seriously dont
know him.
Robinson Godfrey Utility back 01/12/1986 - attitude and other issues will keep this young speedster out.
Roman Hifo Loose forward/second row 17/04/1986 - I like this guy heaps
.but read comments for Andreas B above
Simon Mannering Second row/lock/centre 28/08/1986 190cm 94kg - worth another go, was definitely a victim of the Kemp system.
Daniel O'Regan Standoff 03/02/1988 183cm 89kg - too young and I dont rate, is there on name
Sam Rapira Prop/second row 08/04/1987 183cm 106k- pissed me off all year, nowhere near the right fitness level, let the Stallions down at times.
Misi Taulapapa Winger/fullback 25/01/1982 178cm 81kg - like this bloke
.but others dont. Hope he gets a run.
George Tuakura Prop 11/10/1975 187cm 117kg - too old and too big
nowhere near the fitness level required.
Daniel Vasau Utility 01/08/1982 - goes OK but is not close to NRL
someone is having someone on.
Cooper Vuna Winger/centre 05/07/1987 1.80m 95kg - hopefully will get a go. This young bloke had a major attitude problem a couple of years ago but has lost that now. When he is fit he beat anyone down his wing
..doesnt like to tackle though
.like most outside backs
Cheers
