Purtell will probably finish this season with us then part ways :/

It would be sad to see Purtell go.

I know we're light on props but there must be a better option than an overrated player with a poor injury record who will be 32 next season.

I wouldn't be too sure, he's fairly hard from what I've heard.

Thoughts on Asotasi on the South Sydney forum: www.rabbitohs.me/warren/showthre ... ext-season Also this is the article which says that we've signed Roy Asotasi: www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sp ... sides.html We he count on the Overseas quota and/or the Non Fed Trained Quota? He played for Samoa yesterday.

If he is nailed on the club must know who is being let go to accommodate him.

NAS
Heath
Kearney
Lilia
Purtell

We have sammut till end of 2014 IIRC

I think he would be a great signing, people need to realise that the quality of player on the market is not what it once was with the NRL salary cap.

We might swap Lulia for Blythe as Warrington are playing Simon Grix in the centres and as far as I know they could possibly let one of their quota's retire or go.

Purtell could finish the season then decide to leave or retire due to health.

Don't think Heath will go anywhere.

Kearney won't be going after this season although Cummins could see Kear/Foster as fullback for 2014 until Naughton is ready?

Could be s straight swap for Nas, Nas out Asotasi in although that would not be beneficial to us :/

Or he could be exempt (he did play for Samoa? the other day)

Which sounds more plausible to you guys?

Manuokafoa signed a 2 yer deal only 6 months or so ago so it's unlikely to be him. My money would be on Lulia leaving.

We certainly could do with a little bit of experience in the pack and he would do very well in SL. I wouldn't want to see silly money thrown at him though.

Why are you guys still going on about the overseas quota? The rules changed several years ago now and his nationality means sod all.

The only restriction that counts anymore is the federation trained allowance, of which he most certainly counts towards.

If Lulia is to leave it would leave us short in the centres. Maybe we should sign Blythe on a permanent contract. It may not be Lulia that leaves though. Purtell may leave if he doesn't feel right, and I think Kearney's contract is up but he has an option for another year. I very much doubt L'Estrange or Manuokafoa will be leaving. There's a big hit from Asotasi in the NRL here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=xrjQdpRsgd4

We are in discussions with one player and one player only.

It's not Roy Asotasi, sorry to put this one to bed.

An overseas player? How old is he?
