Recruitment 2021 Warriors Recruitment DISCUSSION

[Hadyn]

A couple of players I wouldnt mind seeing upgraded to main contracts are the Fijian winger Ratuva and Preston Riki.
I know Riki is listed as a prop but he reminds me more of a rangy backrower with good hands and feet like Kikau.I don't know what his work rates like but hes young and got a real raw boned potential about him.
They'd both be cheap upgrades and I'd get him on board asap because they'll be some old codger coach talking to Dolphin Riki right at this moment.

Ratuva is in top 30

My guess is Pos is using cap restraint as a negotiating tool

 

[AlexM]

Well if it is cap related the article says " we couldn't offer him a deal past 2022" so that means there's some big money going to be tied up with an incoming player one thinks

Is something big brewing for November 1st? (Metcalf, Manu, Niukore) possibly???

 

[Aman]

All I want to know it who the Fook is this guy and why he’s constantly in our recruitment chat

 

[Ever Hopeful]

Another hooker off the market with Siliva Havili signed for 2 years by Souths. He's done pretty well for himself since leaving.

 

[Waipiro]

You guys are really big on Harris. I was a little critical of him this year. Mostly because I was so big on him.
Personally I think it might be time to move on..

My concern with Tohu Harris is he seems to be taking concussion shots a bit too regularly and im worried that will get worse as times go by, I hope im wrong as he is a great player and now we have a decent couple of props it would be nice to see him ranging wide rather than taking the tough hit ups he has been forced to do this year

it would be nice, but what if there isnt? Do we have enough players in the team to last the year, or is it finally time for NB to bring up all those magic juniors that everyone keeps talking about?

Its imo. His best position
He will play 13. From now on my guess is

Hopefully his ball playing is on point the game is trending back to the old style 13.

Momirovski has signed with the Roosters for 3 years.

[Toookey]

I’m not overly disappointed, but would have been good to get him.

Makes you wonder about Roosters tho - Billy Smith, Sualli and now Momo on their books - maybe their signing a replacement for Manu?

 

[Kestrel84]

With the Roosters getting Momirovski, does that mean they could be prepping to lose Manu?

 

[Wrighty]

That is what I am thinking too Tookey.
For those on the Joey Manu train. Buckle up.

Dunno, he's had injuries on top of injuries. Rotten luck really.

Mom, Smith, Sualli and Manu.Looks like one too

Is it too early to call it, Manu to the Warriors next year???????

Keary best be not retiring due to head knocks.
