Apparently milf has a great game on Sunday too for samoaWell there was talk of them trying to lure him. Maybe it has worked. They would in a much better position to offer him a top 30 contract

My prediction is the team rolls out like this..Geez you got Katoa way down the list there, almost needed a magnifying glass to find him…
They’ll probably ease him in but he looks very promising.Be interesting to see if the Union convert Te Whare gets a starting centre spot. He had a good year in QRL by all accounts.
I agree. The people naming Gilbert on the bench are nuts. He's one of the first players picked in that packLemuelu was a reserve grader at the Cowboys and converted to the second row from the centres. Tabuai-Fidow played the bulk of 2022 from the bench.
I reckon their best signing is Gilbert. Yes I'm biased as I'm a Cowboys fan, but Dolphins will get far more out of Gilbert over the next 5 years than they will from the old codgers on their list.
Gilbert has to be in their starting 13.I agree. The people naming Gilbert on the bench are nuts. He's one of the first players picked in that pack
Yes. Might take a while for them to realise though.Problem is your not going to drop two starting rep players for him I wouldnt have thought? Is he really better than the Storm bookends Bromwich and Kaufusi?
Great minds.....lolYes he is. But, he can play middle as well, ie lock
On the squad, by my list which I think is still accurate Dolphins only have 2 top 30 spots left and 2 development places. Allegedly they are $2mill under the cap. Probably too late to find a $1mill star player now so will everyone get a nice bonus I wonder?
