If I had my choice I'd keep Manua and Laiseni. Bott can piss off. Outside of those I wouldn't have any idea.

 

[The Popper]

I'd keep Borg, Finn, Manua, Maori, Nielsen, Puotohaua. I can't place Bannister?

 

[Danger]

We should have kept latu, especially since we have signed seymour and that Taulapapa guy after they have been busted by their clubs for alcohol related incidents... But out of that bottom list, i'd have to say Manua, Tu'u Maori and Brett Finn.

I would have kept Cliff too, but I thought he was gone to to the Roosters/Jets already :?

Also i was wondering about Isaac Gordon from Flegg. Do you think he is any good? Who would you compare him to? And does anyone have a photo of him?

"flash" as he is called by his Cronulla team mates goes very well. Strong & very deceptive speed.
Also goes by the name of "Asimov". A name given to him by his book club buddies.
Funnily enough, not many photos exist of "Flash Asimov", so , here are a couple of people who may look like him.

 

[Manfred Moore]

:lol: Looks more like the guy from the Goodies

Ok sounds good.

Do you think he can handle the step up to Premier League?
