Nikora been in our system since a teen and is now a test player, he will command big money, doubt we will match any chance offers he gets, I imagine a Sydney club would be preference, been here a long time.

Pele is different, I think he seeks opportunity, cannot get a run here, Behind many, young men have no patience.

I note he is listed at 13 for the Jets, found that interesting.

Not so sure Nikora commands big money. Playing test football for NZ is hardly the accolade imo.

Rumours he's after 550k approximately... see ya mate

We’re right thanks Richard.

If you didn’t want the job before you can’t have it now you’ve been given the ass.
Geez can’t blame him for wanting a HC position over moving across the world for an AC spot.

Not to mention there could have been visa issues with Covid.

I get all that but his offer to come was before we appointed the rest of the coaching staff.

I’m not having a go at him declining the first time, I’m just saying if we are the fallback then we are ok thanks.

Pele is interesting. Cant agree he lacks patience. Look at his body since he came to sharks. Lotta work there. Maybe not made for the lateral defensive stuff people want in the middle .seems a half or hooker that gets bumped off easily for lack of size is excusable for their attacking brilliance .No such lenience for a prop ? Peles obvious ability to break the line seemingly at will has got to have some value if used astutely. Interesting to see how the side goes with the defensive skill of Finnucane and McInnes and overall improvement with rest of squad . Pele might just be a great weapon to have on the bench to Break a game wide open. Hes been with us for a while now so someone must see some value in him .

Make no mistake, Pele has the potential to be a BEAST. How he is advised will hold all the bearing on whether he does fulfil that potential or not.
And yes I realise I am stating the obvious.

Euan Aitken has been released from Warriors, doesn't want to move to NZ.
He would be a handy pickup for us can cover centre, and edge backrower.
He fits into that Fitzy versatile player

Kind of a weird decision to sign for a team that's called the New Zealand Warriors. Sure they've been based in Australia for a while but they were going back eventually.

Not much of a loss for them, and not keen on him coming here.

I think we can do better than Nikolai in 23.
