Show him the door to England and let Tuakura in. He played brilliantly against Canberra in the trial match. Fast prop with excellent offloading vision.
 
He only got on for a few minutes.

He seemed desperate to make an impact with ball in hand, sadly though it never really looked likely - he even caught a chip kick a metre out from their line and never looked likely to crash over.

Sadly I doubt this will happen.

We are about to enter a big rebuilding phase and I doubt Tuakura will feature in the Warriors plans due to his age.

If only he was a little younger :(.

Tuakura's on a 2-3year contract. Theres no reason why he wont be included in the warriors rebuilding phase. Theres a few props in the nrl that are 30 or nearing 30 and are making a huge impact eg: Price, Wiki, Webke to name a few. Give him a go, he wont disappoint. Hes probably one of the only few people who want to play league for the love of the game not for the money.
 
Give villa more game time to prove that he deserves to be in the squad.
 
Afetr thinking about it I think given big George a go wouldn't be a bad idea. Either him or Sammy at this stage are a better option than Villa. Ithink they would be more produtive and both of them will be here next season.

Bloody oath the've chosen villa someone that is OBVIOUSLY leaving next year instead of sam someone for the future. Its bloody crazy.
 
Tuakura while being older. Hasnt played NRL, that means his body hasnt had the rigour of being tested for several seasons. He should last another 5 seasons. Having said that Iafeta Paleaesina once told me that playing bartercard was alot more physical than NRL. NRL is faster more fittness based. But Bartercard belted you. I must admitt there is some giants playing BC
