Nasheed here,
Received word today from my insider that Paul Alamoti is unlikely to be renewed.

The main reason is due to both money and defensive issues. It somewhat ties in to the RFM and Sutton issue in that way.

Apparently RFM went into bat for Alamoti. This could be a source of some of the tension with the coach I reported earlier.

Wish him all the best, but won’t be missed.

We have too many centres, I won't be too upset if we lose him. Younger Michael Gabriel probably end up being better anyways in the long run. Plus we have Samrami also, depth is fine.

Considering we've bought all these centres we don't actually have a single nailed on starter there next season. If Xerri doesn't hit the ground running we're in trouble.

Keen to see how he goes. I still want Kayal Iro but.

Funny because everybody labelled this kid as elite.

More of an indictment on our inability to coach and develop than his ability imo.

Hope he gets quality coaching elsewhere because it sure as shit isn’t happening at this club anytime soon.

Thanks Nasheed, we had no idea Alamoti was on the outer. His performances have earnt him a call up to NSW Cup, I thought this was a reward.

I always say his body changed. He had a lean body then he bulked. Meaning he wasn’t what he was anymore.

The same people slamming him and saying he should be let go will be bitching and moaning 2 years later if he becomes a regular first grader elsewhere

Alamoti was very good in junior rep footy - i dont recall him ever being lean - he was never the biggest player on the field but always one of the most skillful as well as aggressive with without the ball. Like so many dogs outside backs he hasnt learnt to defend well enough in fg and doesnt have the pace to make up for defensive errors or hesitation. He hasnt gotten taller either and body shape wise more suited to being a forward. Yet to turn 20 though.

Highlights the difference between fg n all other levels of footy

Blake Taffe will play fullback, Crichton and Xerri will be centre and I reckon they’ll keep Burns for back up.. let’s hope Xerri is as good as he use to be
