How big is Oregon?

Supposedly 188cm and 114kg

That's not the official site though, who for some reason haven't got his height and weight

Big kid for 19. Stefano is 191cm and 115kg officially, and not even 19 yet

Dammit.

I got hooked like a Salmon, didn't I? Stupid bourbons!

Yeah but Oregon Kaufusi is a 19 year old with about five games experience. He's bigger than Flegler as well.

Stefano Utoikamanu is an 18 year old they allegedly wanted to get into FG last year, and he's bigger again.

No knock on our boys mate, i love Oregon. He looks like a great prospect.

The article mentioned we are still in the market for a prop. I was just giving a suggestion, G Burgess would be a massive waste of money IMO.

I'm not fussed on Burgess but he does offer something different.

I'm more saying that Flegler kind of fits a role we already have, and if we do sign another prop I think a guy like Burgess (not necessarily him, but that style, could be a TPJ too for eg) fits the balance better.

all i see is an over priced pillow, its been a long time since George Burgess has been a dominate force in the league.

They were the Keatings we had to have.

But not the Keatings we wanted.

Well played.

He does still average 10m a run easily, and he has a good offload, although he hasn't used it much this year. The bloke is a very good attacking runner of the ball.

He's just got hands like feet and can be lazy in defence. Like I said, I'm not fussed an he probs wouldn't be my choice, but I do think we could get good footy out of him if we did sign him.

I'd let Jennings go, Salmon should take his spot and use the money to top up Gutho, Moses and Brown.

We need more than one centre ffs

 

[Poupou Escobar]

The thing with Jennings is just how much money he is on.

All that matters is how much clubs are willing to pay him after this year.

Always good to get a second opinion.

Has salmon done anything to suggest he’s guaranteed a first grade spot?

Well he's been picked in first grade every week he's been available this season...

No shit. How many games he been picked at centre? And in the games he’s been picked, there’s been a few out injured who no doubt will be picked before him. Haven’t seen anything to suggest he’ll make a decent centre let alone a good one.

Who mentioned centre? Certainly not me, or you.

Based on his selection every round so far, he is a big part of our plans in first grade. That's all you asked.

I've already said I'd make Jennings an offer so any goalpost shifting is meaningless to me. Salmon will be at centre or at 14 or at 6 if Brown isn't.

Well he's only 20 this year, meaning we should expect him to be a better player next year. He's already one of our most physical players, as far as a combination of speed, strength and endurance, and most importantly he is already contracted for 2020.
