That's like replacing Cooper Cronk with Lachlan Lewis.
They like to bring kiwi players home. Dwz was meant to be out fullback when he came over but that didn’t work out. Warriors will target him I think

Yeah years of rotting away at the warriors will do that to a man.

RTS wasted so many good years at the Warriors.

Talk over here on radio that he isn't taking a pay cut at all, also talk that he's pretty much rubber stamped to play for the ABs. He won't say it though.

Unless he's Benji Marshall useless, he'll be an AB in 2022.

I reckon RTS will shine in the ABs midfield. I doubt he will play 15 unless he develops his kicking game. Benji was always too old, not sure if even had a rugby schoolboy history, more a touch player. I think it is difficult to transfer league to union halve skills.

Israel Folau was a great fullback in Rugby. RTS will be fine.

Browny will love this because it tacks a few more years onto his "rebuild" and he has a ready made excuse for the spoons he loves picking up.
And probably guarantees moylan a gig next year haha

But he did AFL first so he learned how to kick, I have never seen Roger kick the ball. I still agree, he'll be fine, the guys a freak.
I've seen RTS kick a ball...wish I didn't lol.

He'll make it bro. He was equally good at Rugby as he is League. Played both, played NZ schoolboys at the lower age group and played for the Blues development team or trial team. Might have even been the Blues.

He won't be trying to play FB, he'll go for a midfield spot, imo.
Or wing so he can return the ball in open play...

Right Wing or Fullback

Roger is a freak that grew up playing Union
No brainer

How hard can it be for a professional footballer to be able to kick the ball?
