| Well, for me, it's a no brainer. We already have Manny, who is a fine prospect, playing well and improving by the week, and could become a Bulls legend if he stays a while.
OTOH there's the permanent and highly expenisve crock Asotasi, who has done nothing for years, and is the wrong side of 30, who would want five times the money that Manu does, plus we'd have to pay the various expense and costs involved, plus we lose both Manu and Sammut.
Clearly, then, we must sign Asotasi at any cost. It's the only barking thing to do if we are serious about taking the title of Super League's Ultimate Basket Case.

| Why on earth would we benefit from signing him? Keep Nas if possible - he's looking the business.
I'd only consider signing some over-the-hill marquee player if that brought a shedload of external money into the club. And, other than Sir Steve Menzies, our recent track record in recruiting marquee players is not that encouraging?

| No thanks. I think Manuokafoa has performed well for us and will be commanding a fair bit less than Asotasi in wages. It would be pretty daft to bring someone else in and take a gamble on him not settling in this country (see Orford/McKinnon).

| Potter has really done the business this season with his o/s signings. It's always risky signing someone from overseas, they may take a while to get going or even end up cutting their stay short like McKinnon, but all 3 of ours have hit the ground running and look to be top quality players.
I had my doubts about Purtell but he has been solid, didn't really know too much about Nas but he is now a guaranteed spot in the 17, and Lulia has been just as awesome as I had hoped, if not more so!

Best overseas signing we've made since Menzies, really hope we can keep hold of him as he is one of the best imports in SL.

Er...can't keep them both under the rules. Unless we get some special dispensation, one of them has to go for the next salary cap year.

| Manuokafoa has the potential to be the best prop in this league. Asotasi, not heard good write ups about him for a while. Plus Manuokafoa is playing out of his skin and at the moment is leading the chase for the last quota spot.
