Don't understand why we would want Norman. Not exactly carrying the Eels to great heights is he.

Two big angry props please.
and he comes across as a total tosser/full of himself. Not sure I'd want him.
Agree about the 2 angry props. Hopefully make that 3 please.

Toohey says there's no interest in Norman, we're still keen on Ferguson, and there will be a signing pre-June 30, but not a major one.

Jai Arrow shits on Wallace imo and is only going to get better and better and better. This bloke will be one of the best forwards in the world within a few years.

Told you Wallace was junk but no one ever listens to me on here tsk tsk

The article says he is expected to play reggies...surely ANY half decent prop walks straight into our FG side. Especially when they are that keen to impress...I expect to see him on the bench

Interesting if we do sign Ferguson then where does it leave Moga?
I doubt Lee signed a 3 year deal to play NSW cup when he could stay at Cronulla and play first grade every week.

Plus according to Noname.. Sione will be playing centre next year as well hahaha

Let's be a little bit realistic, if, IF, we sign Ferg then Moga fights for spot alongside others no gimmes, Lee signed to play with no guarantees if good enough he is in if not he is in reserves, like anyone else. If it suits side/coach/player then Sione could be centre or second row or bench or reserves.
You see it's all up to form, injuries, team situation etc and what is best for the teams chances of a win not bias against player or selection, SORRY if that's too logical and realistic for you

Lee not coming here to play NSW cup.
He can stay at Cronulla and play first grade every week.

So you are saying no matter what that Lee is automatic pick in 1sts no matter what, think SKD, Ramien, Moga, Sione, Denniss, Sio, Ross might have something to say about that, if he is good enough ok but we will see, it's not automatic

Young Tigers prop JJ Felise is the new signing he was referring to. Bit more on the Edrick Lee signing and an update on Blake Ferguson in the article too.

Always liked JJ, 2 years ago he was the stand out prop in the entire NYC competition. Looked at home in first grade but for whatever reason Cleary didn’t rate him. He came through the grades with Junior Tatola and was always better then him, we’ve seen how well Jnrs doing at Souths.

More of a stocky build, in the Paul Gallen mode but a good worker who has little mistakes in him. Wish him well.

Thanks Vic. If what you say is true he is already a standout in our meek pack.

I hope he does well for you, by all reports he has a great attitude. Came to us via Keebra Park and knocked back the Broncos to resign with us at the end of 2016. It really surprises me that Ivan doesn’t rate him, I’ve watched a lot of NSW Cup this year and to me he’s been better then Sue and Grant yet isn’t getting a go ahead of them.

I told Souths fans on here I expected Tatola to play first grade and be a success when they signed him, I’ll say the same about JJ.

JJ seems to be in the mold of Ese'ese (mobile forward with some footwork but not the biggest lad). Is this the type of forward we're after? It seems like the Saifiti boys are the only boys with size we got in the forwards. Everyone else is sorta small or lean...
