Am I right in thinking we tried to sign him?
If so, why didn't we? St's Salary cap must be bursting at the seams.
This would not be the first signing we have missed out on in recent years. Rumour aside I am aware that Lauatiiti nearly came our way and its well documented that we were talking to Dobson.
If the board didn't offer Puletua the right amount (and by that I would say he should have been made our top earner) then thats another nail in their coffin.
The bloke is a freak of a player.

Pretty sure his agent said in the Aussie press at the time that Hull and Saints were chasing him.

Fabulous player.
I really hope we didn't try and yet again miss out. He would have been some player in the Black n White, very impressed so far this season.

Nah. We got rid of Talau, Fozzard, Scully and Bennett at the end of last season, only bringing in Puletua. We didn't recruit for Talau at left centre; that's a favourite slot for our young guys to get their first grade debuts! We still have money under the cap.
I have to say, for just one signing we have dropped on really lucky. He's an amazing player. |

Quite depressing for the opposition - Puletua runs riot, goes off for a breather and Fa'asavalu comes on.  |

how saints get under the salary cap amazes me...there support is terrible for a team that has dominated for the past 5 years or so......how can one team boast a team where every player was or is a full international ie: last season is making the salary cap a mokery......same goes for wire.......saying that though, with the new tax laws coming into place regards aussies having %40 of there wages put in offshore accounts, we'll soon see who is playing by the "RULES"....
