I think I mentioned him on here last year. Even sent an email to the club. Good finisher, cracking kicker, definately an improvement on what we have. |

The Star says Potter to bring Meli with him as he wants more than a 1 year deal, and we will be willing to give him a 2 year deal.
Would be an improvement on any of our wingers, certainly a better finisher.
Pretty much all the papers have had the Elima rumour in now, definitely a good replacement for Worrincy!!

On the face of it, you'd say no way. But when you think we have a lot of good backrowers and are severely lacking in wingers, it's not as clear cut as most would think. |

Will Meli be on quota or - having been here a while - will he be exempt?
If it were to be a straight choice about the last quota spot, the obvious answer would be Menzies. |

Menzies is more than just a good backrower though, IMO he's the best centre at the club as well.
If Meli were to take the last quota spot and deny Menzies of a place I'd hope we also had a good centre coming in to fill that gap.
BTW Meli's first season in SL was 2006 so by the end of this year he'd have been here 5 seasons in a row. Does that make him exempt? |

I just assumed Meli would be exempt. If he's not, there is no way I would want him over Menzies.

Meli, Elima and Palea'aesina would be good additions to the squad.

I'm presuming you mean Leon and not Karl!!
In which case he would be a great signing but I very much doubt it will happen.

We can dream!
Maybe Saints want to free up cap space because Simmons is bringing Benji Marshall with him |

Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.

Beaver would be at centre if I were picking the team. |

depends if he was classed as a kolpak player under old system which I think he was. to be exempt you have to be playing in SL before new quota rules came in (feb 07 or 08 I think) and a kolpak player. This is why morrison couldnt get it. he was over early enough but was a quota player under old rules.
Pretty certain meli will be exempt. |
