Amor for me gets lost in Alex's shadow when played together- he showed at Leeds that he's still 'got it' . I'd like to see them interchange with each other more next year with Savelio and Tasi doing the same

I don't know, but I suspect that Amor played much of last season with an injury that was hampering him. I'm hoping to see him back to his old self after a full off-season.

It would make sense.
His performances were well behind his ones from 2014 for the majority of the season and they suddenly jumped back up for the run in.

The pack has to perfom as a group and, although Tasi might not have Mose's ability when at full tilt, he can still bring a lot to the table. He seems aggressive, which can never be underestimated - Vila was never the greatest forward on the team sheet, but he ticked a lot of boxes that others couldn't.

Salford RLFC Folly ARLFC Good john wilky last looked out on the pitch at salford. when the snow lay round about deep and crisp and even brightly played the lads that night though the frost was cruelllll when poor swinton scored a try we had 94urrrrrrrrrr:7891.jpg



Quote: MarioRugby "I'm obviously not a Saints fan but I have been reading your forum and as a rugby fan who has watched Lama Tasi extensively these past 2 seasons I'm amazed that some of your fans seem to think Tasi is going to be a world class signing. I can assure you he wont be.

Tasi is an average squad player at best. His line speed and defence in the line is questionable at best. His only contribution to games is one or two big hits he puts in once every 40 minutes on average. Annoyingly, some fans only seem to remember these hits and it gives them a little cheer but they forget the other 40 minutes a game he plays where he's being ripped apart by fast play the balls.

On top of this he's gained himself a reputation (correctly or not i dont know) of enjoying the night life in Manchester and he was on a booze-up with Chase in France this summer which meant they missed training and I believe both faced disciplinary action and Chase has now had his contract terminated.'"



Tasi has the potential to be class and I think he will go on to be one of the best props in the league at Saints. He's only 24 as well.

Well if you put him at Greg Richards level, I'm expecting the worst. icon_sad.gif

Quote: Top Saint "That's what were getting!'"

IF we do, then we're golden in the forwards for next season, with Savelio graduating.

I would be tempted to essentially rotate Greenwood and Thompson in the back row. Greenwood started so brightly, but it felt like a long season for him. He likes a physical battle, you can tell by how aggressive he is in defence, but his high centre of gravity meant that days "in the grind" could be extremely tough on him. It will be interesting to see what sort of weight he's put on in the off season.

I'd be tempted to include Vea in the rotation to keep him fresher for the business end of the season. Some of our forwards did look a touch jaded towards the back end of last season an Tasi will help to keep the props fresher. I loved Mose for his impact but his workrate was poor. Our pack is more rounded and has more genuine depth than last year. It's the backs where I think we could be in trouble following any injuries.

...Diagnosing SBD (Sporting Bipolar Disorder) since 2003... Negs bringing down the tone of your forum? Keyboard Bell-endery tiresome? Embarrassed by some of your own fans? Then you need... TheButcher I must be STOPPED!! Vice Chairman of The Scarlet Turkey Clique Grand Wizard Shill of Nibiru Prime & Dark Globe Champion Chairman of 'The Neil Barker School for gifted Clowns' "A Local Forum. For Local People":d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_6329.jpg



Barker/Mario seems to think the sun shines out of his own cloaca, when in fact, he's just a very poor troll. He continues to speak of himself in the third person and pretends to be a Salford fan (Why the fook you'd pretend to be a Salford fan I don't know) even though he was part of a Wigan fan group on Twitter. Please remember, good Saints fans, that this imbecile is not representative of all the decent Salford fans that frequent these boards, and just continues to try and pour negative vibes the way of us real fans.

As for Tasi, well, I think he'll do great for you guys. He's young, fit, enthusiastic and got plenty of development left in him which can only lead to better things. He was great for us in his time, and given the right environment will take the next step up to be a really decent prop.

Longys view of Tasi is that he will run through brick walls for you all day.

That was all Saints were looking for.

First accept sadness. Realise that without losing 70% of the time, winning wouldn't be such a relief.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_32990.jpg



My view on Lama Tasi having watched him play a lot is that he never realised his full potential in a Salford shirt. He showed glimpses at times of his strength near the try line but he often missed games and isn't what I consider a prop with long minutes in him. Perhaps he didn't thrive in the negative environment at Salford over the past two years and I'd expect him to do much better for you guys in a more competitive team.

I think most Saints fans would not argue with what you say he has potential to be good or lazy like Mose
