I reckon he'd be a perfect half for them short term, although with the rumour suggesting that Te Maire Martin is likely to join the tigers I think having him finally transition to number 9 will work well for them. They've needed to toughen up their spine physically for many years now. Sure he's on too much money and may not be the top-quality half the money suggests he will be (maybe he will be with a different half than mbye next to him) although I think the tigers just want to compete again and gain a big, reasonably skillful side (eg matulino, Sue, Idris and David Nofoaluma, Te Maire Martin, Malakai Watene-Zalezniak, McQueen), good signing.
