Quote: ploinerrhino "Perhaps Konrad wants to win something and with better structures and go forward at Saints he is going to get far more ball and in one to one situations at centre where they are short of numbers , doubt he will play 2nd row very often .
Yes the 2 year contract against the 1 year Leeds offered will also have been enticing and gives him chance of even more trophies'"
The rumour at Saints is that he’s already signed for another team in 2023 and we are a stop gap for him, as a chance to work with Woolf before the World Cup.
It’s a really strange signing, I have no idea where he fits in either in the centres or in the back row at Saints, as he’s not likely to displace the the incumbents, but seems crazy to sign him to mainly play reserves as hell run riot. Fitness is obviously going to be a major question mark here.
If he gets back to the body shape he had in the NRL, would there not be question marks over the conditioning team at Leeds? If he doesn’t there’ll be questions on what Saints were considering when signing him.
