No one knows if the Tits will cough anything up given the fractured relationship he appears to have with Des who they see as their long term coach.

If our glorious recruitment leaders don’t at least have shot at an elite backrower, then are they serious about their intent to strengthen the roster
Given there aren't any recruitment leaks these days, how would we know?

He definitely has the agility. What he lacks is the power to make a difference in attack. But the priority at nearly every position is defence. If you have an edge forward like Guymer in the team you just use him on shift plays, often as a decoy. If you had Fifita on the other side you would play to him more, either giving him early ball or creating plays to isolate him on a defender. Like we did with Lane when he was good.

Fifita is obviously one of the best edge forwards when he is in form. And better then what he have. But paying him $800k plus is to big of a risk. Massive risk, we don't need to take!

Hard pass, unless he is willing to take less!
A risk we don’t need to take? A club that is running last that doesn’t have a single first grade quality edge forward in the squad can prob take a risk on one of the best edge forwards in the game.

When you put it like that, we can’t afford not to buy him. We’d be doing a service to Rugby League. The fans will thank us when he’s throbbing it up outside Mitch and inside Zach.

Another prima donna. He would burn up a fair chunk of our war chest. BTW, what does a war chest look like?

I personally don’t get the criticism of Fifita not making 20 carries a game. He’s not a workhorse and never will be. Let others make the tough yardage carries.

I still think he’s the best second rower in the game and I would be over the moon with the signing.
You reckon he’s better than Liam Martin, Hamole at Manly, Nikora,
Titans aren't going to take the cap hit to move him on
