Could be an option for us at half back and back row'"
Lovodua is also only 25 …. |

Think he’s more of a 9 and I’m sure he’s played 13. Think he’s more of a hooker/utility forward than a half back.
Unsure why he’s not got a contract. He was getting big raps in 2022 but in 2023 not sure what’s happened.
As for Pauli Pauli. His issue has always been fitness. We need a pack leader to replace Fifita. Far as I can tell we don’t have one.
As for props available there’s two could be worth a look:
Ben Nakubawaii from Leigh. Won the championship last year with Leigh.
Ramon Silva - big brazillian prop only 23 been at Wigan
2 years but played games on loan this year at London and Toulouse. |

You'll never get a player to replace Fifita. He was unique. We'll need a different style of pack leader.

Only player I'd touch there is Ben Nakubawai but very much in the frame last year, would be surprised to see him drop to the Championship. Unless of course he's OOC.
Lovodua played 9 and 13 back in Aus but featured heavily for FC at stand off, not sure if that was due to injuries in the squad but clearly didn't impress them enough to earn another deal.

Agreed - he was the nearest thing we have had to a marquee player for a long time, and we had him for years and years. He was the difference for some people buying season tickets I would hazard a guess.
Even with cash reserves, almost impossible to replace. |

Pauli is a classic example of how things can go badly wrong, very quickly when you don't take things seriously. If he spent half the time and effort he did throwing his weight around up and down Wesgate into his rugby then he would probably be playing in the NRL.. He quickly went from rising NRL star at Parra to having to hop around championship clubs, shame.
I wonder how much game time Nsemba will get at Wigan of if they will be tempted to send us him over for next year, he looks a seriously good young player.

Is it the inability to keep to his position in the game?!  It sounds harsh, but he genuinely put in one of the worst top level performances espeically in wing positioning in a Sky match against Wigan in late May and hasnt been seen since, this was after a relatively promising 6 or 7 game streak but that was at centre..saying that, there's definitely a "player" espeically with his physical attributes there , but he is a raw talent who would probably benefit massively from a loan move - likely to be at your rivals, Fev |

What? He didn't know how to play a position he doesn't play. That's terrible. Send him back!

Would have him back ,When he signed from Leigh ,was one of the best young centres I have seen at Wakefield. Will get shot down, but better than any young centre we have at present . Hope D P can improve them

Probably because he isn’t a winger.

Evidently. But to be that positionally inept was incredible, it was like he had never played the game at any level before. Surely a centre should know where to stand as a fill in winger first and foremost..I think he'll benefit massively with a strong run of games in the Championship at centre. |

He was out playing many super league centres while with us.
If WP can't make something out of him I'd be really disappointed.
I did see the game you are talking about though. Wasn't good. |

You'll only get shot down because you wrongly refer to Leigh instead of Leeds but other than that I reckon most will agree with you.  |
