A few people putting turuva in the centres. Has he played centre? Very difficult spot defensively. Quite specialist really. Need to determine that he can actually fill that roll.

Couldn't be worse defensively I suppose🙄

Played fullback and centre coming through the lower grades. The fact we are still looking at wingers suggests to me that we bought Turuva to play centre.

Im one of the ones throwing him in the centres and I have to be honest i dont know the answer to that question. Ive thrown him in there on need, hope and desperation. A quick check tells me that he has played 9 games in centre, 6 in Reggies, 1 in a trial, 1 in World Club Challenge and 1 for Fiji. 3 tries and only lost 2 of those games so who knows?

Some of the reporting around the time he signed suggested he had been signed with a view to play centre.

Onitoni Large has signed with Manly.

He was under contract for another 2 years, the only reason it would makes sense to release him would be if Galvin has extended.

I wonder if Richo will release a statement next year congratulating him if he makes finals.

Of all the juniors coming through I think letting Large go is one that will come back and bite us. Badly

@helmesy you can if they’re under contract. Will look pretty stupid if Galvin signs elsewhere next November. This makes no sense to me at all and confirms that we haven’t changed as a club at all.

This. You just say no until Galvin extends.

I can’t imagine any other club releasing someone who looks that promising when under contract. It’s just so stupid. We are such a stupid club.
