| Quote: Barrie’s Glass Eye "I’d imagine Fus is on less on his new deal as well.
I think he consistently has finished the few chances we’ve sent his way. There some fault to be laid at our less than stellar attacking structure last year not giving him the opportunity to show off his finishing ability.
Having said that with all the other pieces sorted he should show much more this year, on the assumption he stays fit.'"
Yep. I'm hopeful that we'll play in excess of 30 plus games next year, and if so, you'd have to think Fus would be playing 25 or perhaps more if he wants an extension. If his body can manage that I'm sure he'll score on a regular basis. |

Woody: Can I pour you a draft, Mr. Peterson?
Norm: A little early, isn't it Woody?
Woody: For a beer?
Norm: No, for stupid questions.:19722.gif |

If given the opportunity in the opposition 20 metres zone Fusitua will score plenty of tries. He hasn't the pace to score from Distance like Johnson or Handley. I'm not sure if he has scored a try for us from in his own half, or even finished of a move started in our half. He may have done but none springs to mind.

What I like about Fus are his skill level which is very high for a big man, and his D when he comes in off the wing and puts a shot on. He does lack outright pace but that’s the compromise (and his injury record). Probably one of the best all-round players in the whole team when he is fit.
I’m hoping that our new half-back combo will be working out how to set him free in 2024, we criminally under-used him at times.

Fusitua is very good on form. It's just that Injuries mean he's out or not match fit for half the season.
I'm hoping he and Newman finally have some good luck this coming season

Hopefully plenty of cross field kicks for the big man as well. A tactic barely used last season |

As soon as Sinfield started kicking to the corner for him against Cas they couldn’t deal with him in the air. Only took the whole season…

Would be a big bonus. Not sure how realistic that is though….
Brutal game when you’ve already had lots of injuries and weakness’s…… |

Interesting times ahead I feel with Olpherts and Fusitua out of contract at the end of the season and Johnstone rumoured to be returning to UK.

Saw Olpherts in a gym in Wakefield today which seemed strange when he has all the facilities at HQ.
Says he`s putting in lots of effort and training ready for the start of the season.
Good luck to the lad if that`s his intentions.

Not sure it's been picked up on but looking back at the walmsley intercept that miller gave up on how fast did jack Smith look, made real ground on him and would have made the tackle given about another 10 meters.

Yes i noticed that and Walmsley is no sloutch.The little that ive seen of Smith he's always impressed me.Seems to have it all to be a good centre. |
