Starving? He’s made 100+ metres every game plus has scored 5 tries in the past 6. Hardly what i call ‘starved’

Is everyone sold on Inu? I've heard a lot of criticism, especially of his defence. I've not watched him personally, it's just what I've heard.

Inu is a Sau type centre so has the same sort of atttibutes. Olpherts and Whelham are probably more a Gleeson type centre but we do seem to use Whelham a lot a first reciever.

I was always a big fan of Krisnan Inu,however in some matches last season and nearly every Catalans home game that I have seen on TV this season he has played really poorly in my opinion and doesn't look as fit as he should be. Having said that Catalans have very poor all round in 2017 and that could be the reason that Inu has been playing as he has. He is reportedly a high earner as well. |

Thanks for the reply, osrd. Sounds like he has the talent, but perhaps not the application. Sounds familiar to me. A bit like many of the signings we used to make. I'd give him a swerve. Glad I'm not the one making these decisions.

I know it’s probably been mentioned before but would we consider Luke Walsh if Cats go down? Has he been particularly poor or has he suffered from being behind a beaten pack most weeks? He can be brilliant and is a decent goal kicker which we’ve needed for a while

I think Walsh would probably be the most realistic target for us.

Going off the Bennion signing.I watched Rochdale's last two home games he did nothing.They did have a boy called Joe Tapia a crowd favourite he looked decent though.I think this Bennion started at wire they let him go to Dale then a loan to Swinton then back.I hope I am proved wrong. |

I think Bennion went mackay cutters after he left wire, I believe he was highly thought of at wire and it was a surprise they let him go. After mackay he followed their coach to Rochdale and has been solid there. Hardly marquee but worth a punt, young hungry player it's the type of signing we need. |

Starving? He’s made 100+ metres every game plus has scored 5 tries in the past 6. Hardly what i call ‘starved’ Get real Twist. Do some analysis. Manu made those yards a la Carney. Bulldozing - Great at it too. How many try assists from Junior in all those matches? Indeed How many passes from Junior in all those matches? Manu is vital for us but needs the service. If you want to play S`au then play him @ #3 not #4. |

Im genuinely concerned about next season i know it's not for another 4/5 months, but from rumours about signing players we're after. I feel we're 2/3 injuries from a shocking season probably nailed on bottom4.
1. Evalds
2/3 new players
4 sau
5 vatuvei
6 lui
7 new player - Gaz maybe deserves a chance
8 Koppy
9 New player
10 Tasi
11 BMM but spell him better
12 Jones
13 Flanaghan
14 New prop
15 Mossop not sure he'll recover
16 Brining
17 Mccarthy
Leaves Hauraki, Tomkins, Williams, Welham, Johnson, Bibby, Wood, Murray, Olpherts, Lannon & Griffiin - squad players
Not sure if ive missed anyone off but 6 quality players and im telling you we'll be high up the league it wont happen though we'll be buying lower league players and hope it works out. Massive gamble

Sau has been stand out performer every season he's been here, if we had 16 others with his attitude we would be a long way towards regular top 6 team. |

It's a myth that doesn't go away that Sau doesn't feed his winger. |
