News NRL clubs can now select players from outside the Top 30. Here’s who is on your team’s radar

[Family Guy]

I would like to think we as a club haven't lost respect for players that command respect through loyalty and being great humans off and on the field !
We have Nadin Allen Alamoti and Schoupp for next year it's looking good !!!

I get your argument. Will is a good bloke and has been loyal...but in terms of the future, I'd rather see young blokes being given a shot. It makes the games far more exciting than seeing players like Napa and Hoppa, who have both been terrible, get a spot.

He has been solid in NSW cup. Outperformed Schoupp. I guess with any more injuries could crack a spot in the 17. Also with okunbor back soon hopefully it is the end of Kotoa all together.

With players like Heleta, schoupp, and okunbour in our backline, we would have a lot more punch!!

 

[stingray]

Yeah I mentioned it few weeks back that we should give Heleta a shot,I saw a photo of him on Facebook he looked like a beast will try find it again

You have to remember what was available wasn't any better

If Watson Heleta is a gun centre then why the fuck is Hoppa still in the side? Why are we being loyal to plodders who won't be here next year?

I'd also add BBO to that list. I think he's injured at the moment but I'd love to see him get a shot this year

probably due to contract amount under the cap, but I agree so maybe he won't be soon now that these guys can be used. If we are to correctly understand what Baz said weeks ago about being unable to fix problems then and there but to wait until after round 10, we just might see Watson in first grade. He has been picked exclusively on the wing for Mounties, but was a centre at Wests. Schoup has plied his trade at centre so maybe got first dibs.

Heleta is 25 now and has been in both the Tigers and Parra systems and couldn't crack their backlines. Biggest problem is defence, but is a bit of a nugget like Brian To'o and Christian Crichton.

5'8" according to ZT

 

[Bulldog1966]

Okunbor 6'5" look out for our raging bull hope returning in a month to 6 weeks!!

Heleta is likely onle ever going to be a stop gap because of injury and poorly performed types ahead of him, doubt he is an option at all going forward.

 

[DogsOfWar1704]

He's a weapon. Would have him over Allen hoppa and Katoa

 

[Bulldogsteve]

5'8" according to ZT

he is 172 cm too small hed get dominated in the air

 

[hotdogs]

He reminds me a bit of Willie Talau.I think Baz should give him a go with nothing to loose .Time to give Hoppa a spell,even Allen for that matter .
