It doesn't prove that at all.

I could imagine that one of the lower clubs in SL, one of those potentially ripe for relegation --- here I am thinking of Wakefield, and perhaps even Widnes -- might sign him. But the elite clubs at the top of the ladder, like St Helens, Wigan, Warrington and Catalans, would not take on a 30 to 40 minute player at that high wage.

And Catalans

In the words of one of your countrymen - when the fly's circle the grass it is the turd that attracts them

You are apparently new to Super League, or else suffering from amnesia.

Last season Catalans finished up 7th in the regular season table, but then in the knockout games of the playoffs defeated Leeds and Huddersfield away to make the final four. They only went down in the penultimate game to competition winners St Helens. And that resounding success was before the arrival of superstars Todd Carney and Villiame Sione Tonga, both of whom have played State of Origin and for Australia. Carney and Tonga will cement Catalans status as a top four side in 2015, as they compete for silverware.

A team as polished and star studded as Catalans Dragons in 2015 could not afford to acquire or retain a 30 minute a game prop.

You are both "hamfisted" and "misguided" to put your reply inside the "quote" box



I've read through the statement you made above, and to be honest it does not make any sense. I've also read through my original post again, and it's perfectly ok. I therefore suggest the mistake is with your understanding of the English language

Rather like Graham Taylor, I would just love it if Catalans didn't make the Top 8 and had to slum it with the likes of Leigh in the Middle 8. Still, at least they'd only have to stoop to playing against FFMM for a mere 30 minutes.

Good to see Les Cats doing their bit to improve French RL

At the risk of repeating myself..........

how do you know that is all he will play in each game, Kermit ?

Sorry to be so pernickety and sorry if I've misunderstood but was it not keegan who is famous for the "just love it" quote??

Dont think I've ever seen so many fellow Leythers on the VT

Quite correct! It was Graham Taylor who said "do I not like Orange"! However, the underlying sentiment remains unchanged.

It only seems like yesterday that a 17 year old Sam Burgess flattened him.

That is the beauty of this signing for Leigh and for Fui Fui himself: he won't have to face opposition as fierce and talented as Sam Burgess. He will make an impact simply by virtue of the weakness of his opposition.

In the event of Leigh being promoted to Super League in 2016, Fui Fui will probably not want to face the heightened competition, especially of props from the top four clubs whom I mentioned in an earlier post. He may not want to take up a second year option, if offered. So far he has chosen his correct level for this stage of his career.

Great signing, I love fui fui. Amazed he wasnt signed by a SL club, he is still very good.

Careful!

I mentioned that a few days ago and I've had a stalker ever since. He'll be on here like a flash calling you "misguided"





In all honesty, if his attitude and training are right, he'll be pretty awesome in the championship.

Maybe 'good enough' but clearly not 'good enough' to command the salary Leigh are offering......

moimoi and brierly will be fantastic next seaon in building the up off the field.
this guy will be worth every penny and then some.

Which is what by the way? However please only supply the factual amount with a link and not the rumoured amount.

You should know by now, if you want to know anything about your club or players opposition fans are always the best sources of information!

Still no 1 story on the Beeb website for RL since 1st December!!!

Nice to see the marketing and media managers of the SL clubs proving their worth!!!!

The SL clubs media and marketing managers are, or should be, targeting their local areas as that's where the vast majority of their income comes from. They're also currently targeting their core support in order to sell season tickets and shirts.
Why would they be hugely bothered about the RL page of the BBC Sport website. Local news, their own websites and social media are far better tools for them at the moment.

The second year of the contract is Leigh's option. Moimoi wanted a 2 year contract and we negotiated a deal that lets us end our commitment after 12 months if we're not happy. The club has gone in to this deal with their eyes open. We have invested money in a player we have plans to exploit commercially and expect to perform on the pitch. I trust Paul Rowley's judgement, he's rarely been wrong but if he is then we have a safety net.
