The Wigan player with hep B was Jerry Seu Seu

Sorry it was Pongia !!!!!!!

I think after Pongia played a season with Wigan, it was revealed he had hepatitis B.
Thus curtailing his stay in England.

Taking long enough we need some fresh blood quickly

We do.

Just hope that when officially announced he is match fit unlike Hickey.

Been comparing his size to the rest of our players on Wiki. He is a stone and half heavier than England, currently our biggest prop.

For me initally may be good to use as impact off the bench with England and Simon starting

Think Chester will stick with Scruton and England as starting props with Fafita, Arona and Simon off the bench...

My memory isn't good on the why
But yeah it was some sort of typical BS from a big club

That is one heck of a set of props
I don't think any team would be able to steam role us with all that size. We should be rolling over them

From the bits of fafita I've seen he will generate us more offloads too. Down side might be work rate in defence. Which is something nick scrouton and arona excel at and should balance the defend attack ratio. Though he may be a complete package in sl
Just hope this visa issue sorted SAP so we can start playing him

Depending if everyone is fit and available something like this would be my 17.

Jowitt
BJB/Hall (Hall is a winger for me)
B. Tupou
Arundal
Johnstone
Miller
Finn
Scruton
Moore
England
Ashurst
Kirmond
Sio/Annakin

A Tupou
Arona - Interchange at Loose with Sio
Fifita
Simon

Quite a good side that.

My only downer to it would be Bill Tupou lacks a pasing game which is something needed as a good centre.

I would swap that round with Hall in centre and Tupou or BJb wing

Maybe its something tupou will get with more game time. Hall is a liability in defence atleast on the wing he is not as vulnerable.

It looks a very good side just need Fifita to sign for 2 years & provide that additional size and impact from the bench..if Trinity sign Keegan Hirst next season Trinity will have one of the biggest packs in SL.

I dont have the stats but, we haven't looked "bigger" than any of our SL opposition this season.
Hull, Catalan, Warrington, Saints, KR even Cas & Widnes appeared "bigger" than us

Would probably have Tupou in the centre when defending and Hall switch to centre when attacking, Hall knows when to pass a ball.

Having England, Fafita and Hirst in the 17 next season would change that....
