If it's just for this season while we get some backs back from injury and to give Pauli more game time I'm all for it. But Sau is 32, we have loads of backs (injured) and Pauli is young and has heaps of potential, so for the long term I don't think it's the best deal for us. Has anyone thought that his dad passing away may have something to do with his attitude of late? Unless I read his Instagram story wrong the other week, I don't think he's been back home since it happened

Doesn’t really matter how much potential Pauli has if he’s not interested or motivated . Poor performances from him on too many occasions , especially given the rest of the team have been running on empty .

Good bit of business that I think suits all parties!

Just a shame Sau is cup tied...will be able to take Kershaw out though and take the pressure off him a little.

It must also mean we are starting to look healthy again in the forwards with players returning which is a bonus...

Maybe now going forward though with the drier pitches and warmer weather (hopefully) we will start going with Wood and Randell interchanging instead of four forwards on the bench which has served us well...excited to see how Randell goes in the coming months because from his interview the other day it looks like he wants another contract so is going to have to play well to earn one which bodes well...

I hope Pauli responds well to the move and comes back a better player because going forward I still think there’s a player there who could be a real asset...

Smart move though from the club so long as Sau is fit and ready to play!

This is great news and a great signing to get us a bit closer to bill coming back

Great work the club !

Just thankful it wasn't Pauli for Minikin

I suspect pp has played his last game for trinity, chezzys patients has run out!!

At the moment it just a loan for a month it isn’t permanent, not yet anyway.

I wouldn’t be surprised if the deal lasted until the end of season.

I also wouldn’t be shocked if we brought in another back row forward at some point soon if we can.

Has someone at the club won the lottery or something?

Another back row forward...to add to...

Ashurst, Kirmond, Batchelor, Horo, King, Crowther...Randell as a 13.....

Wouldn't say we was short in that department and would be spending money we didn't really need to in my eyes?

Sau is a centre
We have no outside back cover at all, if mcb got injured for example who would replace him
He's the perfect signing
Tonnes of experience too

I’m well aware where Sau plays musson, and why we signed him...I gave my thought on it a few posts back...

Maybe I should have used the quote feature but I was replying to sacred cow about signing another back row forward!

Isn't he the guy that Reece had in his back pocket the other year?

If Pauli can manage the minimum, if not the bare minimum on the field, has anybody else wondered what his attitude is like off the field?
CC might just want him out of the camp.

We appear to base our opinion on PP because of one performance and criticism. To make it acceptable to some we suggest he may be a problem off the field. We forget that not that long ago he played 76 minutes. I watched him against Widnes, I don’t remember him missing any tackles and in return was difficult to actually tackle.
I would say let’s not get carried away and take it in face value we needed a centre and we needed PP to get game time. If he had a problem we would not have signed him again last season.
