If the NRL had relegation then Newcastle would have been. Last by a long way and that's purely because of their roster. One of the best in a very bad lot.
Good young forward, will get better going forward but will never be a super star.

Have you got the right Mata'utia? This one plays centre, wing and full back. He does have three brothers however. True the Knights finished bottom of the ladder but, if they had the English-style '8's' who is to say whether they would have been relegated? Also, I wonder how many of our 'Super' League teams could have beaten them?

Hi j.c.

I've come on here to be educated into the wider issues of RL, beyond the M62 corridor.

Ok, must have the wrong one. Same comment applies though; good young player, will get better going forward but will never be a super star.

Excellent recruitment by Leigh so far, but better than their recruitment for last season. Thinking a bit more long term and not panic signings.

The Championship could be a really good league this year, the last 3 years Leigh and Rovers have run away with the league, next year with Leigh, Toronto and possible Toulouse in there in could be a real battle for the top 2.

The 8's should be very tasty next year, wouldn't fancy being a SL side in there.

That's a very decent signing - Leigh showing intent for next season.

Hes a poor mans gray viane

With the signing of Samuel Rapira, William Barthau and Antoni Maria by terrific Toulouse, lowly Leigh will be in a spot of bother trying to compete with the sheer class of terrific Toulouse.

Peter Mata'utia is just a poor man's Matty Utai.

Should that not be Matthew Utai?

RLFans 2 poorest trolls have arrived. Shame, was a semi decent thread this.

Indeed. Back on topic, very good signing for us. Likely that a decent wage and decent length contract won him over.

Just need about another 20 players now!
