Some coaching role maybe. The guy still running round a pitch at 37.

In what way?

We can finally get him in the 2nd Row

Fusitua 2 year extension, hall to replace Martin

Hall should have been resigned post NRL. But for next season…..seriously?

I think the club wants him for back office; but the fact he can play still is a bonus. He keeps himself in good condition - I guess it’s up to one of the younger lads to challenge him for a spot in the side next year.

It’s only one year. I think we need to see some context around the other signings we make for 2025.

INOUTHe''s still fit hardly ever injured.Played 83 games for HkR with a return of 52 tries.He's a far better than Roberts.

Hall is a physical freak, and it's a huge testement to him that he's still producing the goods at his age.

I think it's a sensible signing, and marks the end of Fus's time at the club. Hall is still quality, fit and athletic and can do what we've stuggled with this season - creating momentum in the first couple of carries.

He also doesn't block the path of Roberts, McCormack etc., who probably won't be ready to be starting players next year.

In terms of his off field role, didn't he train to be an accountant? Either way, he's a smart bloke and obviously a model pro to have lasted this long at the highest level.

Agree with Jim on this one. It needs to be viewed in the context of the overall recruitment for 2025. Its one year and qualifies for club trained dispensation so the salary cap impact will be a big saving on Fusitua and releases a quota spot! Even at 37 he can hardly contribute less than Fus! Plus the way we play our wingers are used primarily for doing the donkey work out of defence. If we get two big forwards as part of the 2025 recruitment with money and quota spots freed up can understand the logic.
He can hardly make us any worse!

Apparently we were after Phil Ford but Rohan thought he was a too structured player for his style of play!
