Once we hit the front we completely threw the game away. At least sezer will be suspended so hopefully it will be Galvin/Fainu for the rest of the year

Had big hopes for sezer at the start of the year, now he can just help the kids

I paid close attention to Galvin and he is going to be a gun IMO. The way he moves into space, directs the team, running, passing... he is just raw but he is going to be very very good

It’s pretty clear nobody needs to commit that Tigers wingers name to memory.

the blokes a fullback was playing sg ball 2 months avo

he’ll be fine and A very good player

Souths were there for the taking today but the Tigers kept shitting the bed.

Fair enough, I hope he does. Was definitely way out of his depth, but that explains plenty.

We have about 6 wingers out which doesn’t help

Struggling teams would do well to not have defensive liabilities at fullback. That and have hard working wingers.

Take this Tigers side, add a solid fullback who's willing to do their job and they'd be a different beast.

Speed is great, not much point if you keep having to score 20+ points just to compete.

Bula is a great defensive fullback.

Are all three fainus brothers? What position do sione and latu play?

Sione is a smallish prop/lock.
Latu is a 6 but I think in this squad with Galvin & Luai coming he may end up 13 or 14.

Sione was there last year? I heard they signed the brothers from Manly and knew there was one with the same surname at the tigers but didn't see a report linking all three.

he has been at the Tigers for 2 or 3 years, bumping along in cup and lower grades, not setting the world on fire. Its seems like his brothers coming have lit a fire under him. Samuela is the pick of them so far but Latu hasnt had much of a chance to show himself.
