He’s bigger than a lot in SL so just for once admit you were wrong or do you consider him not to be that great a player like some of your previous posts suggested, when he was rumoured to be leaving or would not follow Covid protocols.
I guess like you I don’t know if he is a good signing time will tell for both of us.

Stop it Scarlet. You know full well he didn't mean Fifita.
If you want to start a fight over something like this you are in the wrong place.

What are you going on about your new buddy stated he doesn’t like big forwards to justify the most recent signing. I pointed out that this suggested he therefore by definition did not rate Fifita, is that not correct. He then tried to justify his statement by claiming that to him Fifita is not that big however I wonder how he weighs (pun intended) up against the props at other SL club. I am certain he is our most destructive prop on our books.
I know he wants to show his loyalty to the club much like you by backing everything they do which is admirable but to try and justify this by suggesting big forwards are a thing of the past and that Fifita does not fit into this definition is just wrong.

Give it a rest

According to NRL website and Wikipedia Jai Whitbread is 6 ft 1 tall and 16 stones 12 pounds…. Not 6ft 2 tall and 17 1/2 stones….Unless he’s bulked up a bit?

and still growing

Seriously does it matter, really?

He will either be good or he won’t. Hell he’s an inch shorter and half a stone lighter according to old data, he’s hardly turned out to be Danny Diveto has he

Might not matter to you (#dontcommentthen) but it will matter to some, whether that's Willie Poching or big kev from the pub. He'll be competing at the very top of the sport I the northern hemisphere. An inch here or 5lbs there could be the difference between being picked or someone else taking your spot.

Accurate information is essential not only for the analysts and coaches but the for the fans too.

So don't look on Wikipedia then!

I'm pretty sure Willie has not decided to give him a contract based on his Wikipedia stats.

So you think the club gets its info from me and Wikipedia do you? Ok matey if you say so.

Ditto you think that players get picked on whether they are one inch taller!

I’ll be sure to get my info to a more accurate tolerance in future, wouldn’t want to jeopardise his future.

Fifita still joining Leigh is he?

Both very presumptuous to state Wiki, I never said which I thought was right or wrong just that multiple sources for the same information, that don't match is dangerous.

If you don't think that half an inch or 5lbs matters at the pinnacle of a sport, then you need to genuinely look into sport science and the research behind each and every player at the club. This isn't the 60's anymore, there are very few players who wi make the teamsheet without the statistics being reviewed first, which funnily enough would include height and weight. I'm not saying (weirdly never did) that Poching checks Wikipedia or the NRL site but as its accessible information to anyone, it is important that its accurate.

Strange thing to bring up on this thread, even stranger to compose your question like that. It almost suggests as if i said it was nailed on and not a rumour on the Leigh board. Now was it a genuine question or another pathetic attempt to try and bully someone on here?
