This Latu Fainu signing is a potential watershed moment for the club. If we get him we have the best junior hooker and beat junior halfback plus a very good fullback. Plus a pipeline of talent to fill in the gaps around them.
My only concern would be whether we have the right coaches in place in both Cup and First Grade to properly develop them.
do you think we are after him as a 6 or 7?

At this point I think he is a 6.

Let’s just get him here first. We can worry about the details later.
If we do sign Latu Fainu who do we get to play halfback next year?

Looks like we might be planning on Madden

@kenny4517 I’d be looking at sexton / Tanah Boyd , Schneider , even cogger . I’d even chuck foran a final year in the 7.
Just because Fainu is 18.
@garry why ? He can’t tackle . Say what you will about Wakeham , at least he’s not a liability in defence .
You said over and over we won’t get Fainu, Koula is our real targetI’m still not confident we get Fainu 😆 expecting to be disappointed
we will get Fainu mate
not a news flash we missed a target, like moses munster etc... story of tigers
so we missed Koula doesn't mean we were not trying to get him... manly has paid big to get him apparently
if manly have told fainu he can negotiate where is he going to go? logic tells you he is going to Tigers due to Scott Fulton
@jedi-tiger imagine if after all this he went to the Dogs or something. Would be the most Wests Tigers thing ever.
