I see Warrington have just tweeted jigsaw piece #16. Who other than that prop from Gold Coast could it be. Either way pretty poor a week before the season starts. Missed all pre season, missed bonding trip!

But better than nothing at all hopefully?

Yeah i'm happy we finally have a 16, if it is Lelani Latu then i hope he comes over with a big point to prove and wants to impress

It’s Benny Westwood re-signed

Confirmed Latu

Let's hope he can deliver what we need. Low expectations given his pedigree.

Yeah i'm expecting about as much as Sammy Kibula to be honest with him, so i'm hoping both of them make an unexpected impact.
Any idea how long he's been signed for?

Signed for two seasons

Interesting.
I though you guys already had 7 non-fed trained players? Gelling, Murdoch-Masilla, Austin, Widdop, Mamo, Akauola and Jason Clark.
Is one of the above exempt? I can’t see that any of them count as federation-trained?

Look those pettifogging rules don’t apply to us anymore than the Salary Cap does, now move along at the back of the bus.

Someone has to play prop in the Reserve team.

Salary cap? What salary cap?

You were Saracens CEO and I claim my fiver!

The new Lama Tasi?

Recruitment has been far from ideal for the prop, but if he comes over with a point to prove it could be a half decent signing.

To be fair, history tells us that players who have come to the club with little fanfare and something to prove often do pretty well. Holden, Briers, Nutley, Bridge, Mackey etc. whereas the headline acts have been pretty hit and miss - mainly miss where overseas are concerned.

So I'm hoping Kibula & Latu both come fully motivated and eager to prove a point. Until they've had chance to be tested on the field, let's at least be supporters and [isupport[/i.
