McClean and Alamoti are better centres with way higher ceilings. Hopefully we can move Tago on......sorry that will upset people

That is why the signing is strange.

in theory he should work with Nathan but the side might need a 6 that kicks better to rest the hammy.

So given how smart we have been recruitment wise I don't see a position being promised.

A change might be good for Tago if that does happen.

on the surface someone needs to atleast change positions

I have still yet to hear our plans for him. He has the size to be a 2nd row.
Needs defence for a centre
Yet to see him organise to play 6.

Where he fits in is key to any other holes we have
I thought he was leaving Parra, because he wanted to play 6, he even rejected FB position their.

I understand your Idea of Cole going to the edge. Someone in a key position can't be injured as often as him.

I don't doubt he was told he is a chance to play 6 but to promise it is trouble.

What if it doesn't work? Then are we getting he wants out rumours?

The media appear to be the only ones speculating that Talagi will take over from Luai.
Similar to the talk Crichton was going to the Dogs to play FB.

Upon signing with us, the club spoke about his versatility.

Demonstrating his versatility, the talented young player has excelled at fullback, wing, centre, five-eighth and off the interchange bench. https://www.penrithpanthers.com.au/news/2024/08/12/talagi-to-join-panthers/
Blade said no position had been promised. I think that is likely the case.

That's it, I hope it works he has the flare. If he fixes the defence he will go good. I had Schneider to replace Luai at the beginning of the year, but as most people I've been highly disappointed.

For me next year with playing away from Penrith, lose of players I am looking it at as a rebuild year.

I have no doubt he makes the 17. Likely he plays in several positions
