Great point!

I wouldn't swap Puletua for O'Donnell. He's the most suspended player in NRL history and only played 7 games last year due to injury, not worth it at all in my opinion.

We dont want another over 30's in our forward pack eithier...

Agree, time for the occasional introduction of Walmsley and Hand, big units and keen as mustard.

Spot on.



Watching Wigan's forwards tonight reminded me of 2011 when we had to rely a lot on our young players - most of whom have been ignored subsequently of course - and how enthusiastic they were, from minute one to the final whistle. What a contrast to some of the lazy lards we have on our team at present.

Having him leave at the end of the season would be about the right timing - I think in retrospect we might have been better off letting Warrington have him (and maybe would have a better shot at Hill in the process). Having him leave now would be baffling... Usual Sun **** I think...

Aye get Luke O'Donnell in for us, that'd give us some toughness in the pack.

Yes, he'd be a typical Saints signing, another 32 year old antipodean.

I honestly don't know why you feel the need to act like that. When you have a reasonable head on you actually engage in some good discussions.

Just wait till your 1 man band leaves for Aus at the end of the year and see who you replace him with ...

O Donnell wouldnt be worth it. His shoulder is absolutely shot, leave him to go back to the NRL and chase the cash.

I wouldnt be too disheartened losing TP, he has given the team more than they could've asked for over the last few years playing out of position and getting the job done with minimal fuss.



A great player but time has well and truly caught up now

If there was truth in it, he is a player that we need to keep or at least replace like for like. He was was the only member of the pack who gave us respectable go-forward last week. I'd be gutted to lose him, he can make or break a game.



We can only carry so many Jon Wilkin types in the back row (his go forward was, quite frankly, embarrassing for a forward probably on 'international wages', but that is another matter) and we have a relatively undersized front row as it is without losing a unit.
