Club desperately needs two quality middle forwards King and Curran will likely be there Hughes, Knight and Patolo can fight for the final prop position.
Edwards and Salmon can fight it out for a role at lock unless CC decides to go with size than its Knight or Patolo.
In whats available for next season I think we have just as good stock in our own ranks so we may as well try and get the best out of them. Potentially I think theres a couple that could be as good as most other dominant props for other teams if all goes well.
We havn't seen the best of Patolo yet and he has the size to do some damage. Hes been a bit of a slow burner though injury hasn't helped. I rate Knight as well. I remember him being pretty good for Souths at one point but once again he got injured. But he has a bit of ball stills and size.
Big Sam Hughes has been resigned so they must see something in him. I know Parra had wraps on him when he was in Harold Mathews. He certainly has the size. We have added a couple of fringe 1st graders in Faamausili and
Kitione Kautoga. I think
Kautoga has been added to the squad.
But I am hoping that
ISAAC MATALAVEA-BOOTH gets his chance because he is a monster and can change the momentum of a game with his size and power game. I think he is a development player still but I am hoping he gets a crack next season.
