Zane tetevano signed for 2024

[Total Fool]

He’ll more likely sit in Reggies for ages…. I doubt he’ll play 1st grade

 

[Dogs79]

I was having a good day until reading this.

 

[Interestingg]

Signing someone months after a stroke. Sounds cruel

 

[Squirtlevstar]

A real heartbreaker. Got myself feeling moist and sticky today.

 

[J_B]

Honestly was saying WTF when I read he'd had a stroke. But if it was due to a hole in the heart which has been fixed and he's clear to play then I'll just have to go with the decision. Adds some size and experience to the roster. If it's a one year deal so be it. Worst case scenario he teaches the youngsters in reserves some tricks for a year. He might actually add value though. So I'll judge on what he delivers.

I agree 100%

 

[ElMagicElMasri]

It’s not a decision that will break the bank or have an impact financially. So why not ? We need middles

- mid 30s
- hasn’t played NRL in 4 years
- average when he did play
- had a literal stroke last year
- absolute garbage human being

I’d rather suffer with Hopoi or Todd than spend a cent on this loser

 

[Dapper Dog]

Not that I think this makes it a good signing, but the stroke aspect is not a concern
The stroke was mid-year and these were his stats from two international games late October:

[J_B]

Majority on here laughed at the poasa faamusuli signing too , now he's starting 13

 

[Bulldog Wrestler]

Surely it's not April 1 already...

 

[Moedogg]

Lol people overreacting. Most likely outside the top 30 and on peanuts. Media deliberately left out the details to troll the fans.

 

[The__GM]

Terrible signing all round. Bracing myself for the Tyrone May signing next.

 

[jof]

Worst case scenario he teaches the youngsters in reserves some tricks for a year.

Let's hope not:

"Tetevano pleaded guilty to eight charges in Newcastle Local Court last week, including two counts of common assault and two counts of assault occasioning actual bodily harm.

On each occasion Tetevano was affected by alcohol and attacked his then girlfriend by variously pushing her to the ground, kicking her, and on one occasion picking her up by her shirt and holding her against a wall, and throwing her around the bedroom at the Merewether unit they once shared."

 

[Robbothedestroyer]

Bog average 33 yr old recovering from stroke and heart surgery and hasn’t played in nrl since 2020, very astute signing. We should have kept Waddell.

And a shitec@&t…..

 

[Reecek89]

Is this the news Gus has been hinting at? Fuck that. I’d rather that Taukiaho or however you spell his name.
Another former Panther too, Ciraldo looking after a mate here. Better not be a top 30 spot

 

[CrittaMagic69]

- mid 30s
- hasn’t played NRL in 4 years
- average when he did play
- had a literal stroke last year
- absolute garbage human being

I’d rather suffer with Hopoi or Todd than spend a cent on this loser

I think we our fan base needs a cleansing. Gus could sign their child's murderer and they'd still find a way to spin it in a positive light.

 

[T-Rocket]

It's April 1st right...... right....

 

[DFLWatto]

- mid 30s
- hasn’t played NRL in 4 years
- average when he did play
- had a literal stroke last year
- absolute garbage human being

I’d rather suffer with Hopoi or Todd than spend a cent on this loser

I'd rather run with 12 players on the field than sign this flog

 

[CrittaMagic69]

Majority on here laughed at the poasa faamusuli signing too , now he's starting 13

I'm still laughing

 

[Kempsey Dog]

Not a fan of this... Would have rathered to wait and see who dolphins frf couldn't get a run in FG and try arrange a loan harry grant storm / tigers style

 

[Reecek89]

I want that to be a success story more than anything but cmon man it was against a b grade Q-cup team
