    He has the potential to be a beast if he was able to finish a game.

    Nice Pod this year by the sounds of it.  But not worth it if his injury is still there.

    I thought Moeroa had an ongoing injury that could flare up at any time? Either way Scott, Mau are a head of him with Watmough and Gower there as well.

    On a scale of Kyle Stanley to Luke Douglas how risky is it to run with James Graham? I love the guy but he seems to be really injury and concussion prone lately and it's making me want to avoid him as much as I don't want to.

    Just had a bit of a look and apparently he was going to have surgery over the break on his shoulder to get it right. So he could certainly score well.

    Taia in 2012 averaged 54 minutes in the 2nd row.
    28 tackles, 100 metres gained and 2.5 tackle busts a game.

    Was an error/missed tackle magnet though. In round 6 2012 he racked up -26 points in errors.
    Averaged losing over 7 points a game in missed tackles/errors.

    Probably priced a touch high for my liking. Whitehead had better superleague stats and is cheaper, so if he nabs a starting spot he is the way to go.

    What does everyone think about the Play the ball rule being enforced? Will it drop off after a week or two? Will it affect Fifita?

    Nice work Milchy  Very Happy  .  He was playing alongside DT royalty back then in Matty Hilder and Houston  Beating Heart  .  Although I think Hilder had peaked the year before and was on the decline DT wise by then.

    Apparently Moeroa put in a very good performance at lock in the trial v Panthers & ran hard & scored a try. The back row to start could very well be Ma'u, Scott, Moeroa.

    I can see Fifita getting penalised quite a bit as his play the ball is just a roll of the ball.

    he might get two penalties and then flano will roast him for it and he'll spend 1hr a day forced into practicing them and he'll never do it again

    Didn't they go there a year or 2 ago, and it lasted half a round?  Although that could have been playing it square.  Darius Boyd ala 2010 owes the Tigers a GF berth for that  Sad

    Not sure if he will start, but I feel he has the potential to score well from the bench as an impact player. I read that he only played one game where he felt close to 100% which I believe was the one he scored 50+.

    He is a pretty impressive Lad. Playing Australia School boys rugby union, Junior Kangaroos and even talk about shot putting for the olympics.
