What’s that based on though? Him running against 17 year olds?

Welcome! And we only benefit if we sign him for next year. I am hoping that the loan arrangement was a condition of a new contract...
I think people are upset because we are injury plagued and hardly in a position to loan one of our Top 30.

I wonder if he gets a couple weeks warm up then we see him for the rest of the season. Initially I thought wtf. On the flip side we lose this weekend, what do we have to lose, just throw him in next week.
or he is gone for next year and not in our plans.
Can we call him back at any time?

I see in his profile that he is 25 years old? Give him a run with the Warriors, make an assessment on whether he is worth persisting with. If he is, bring him back.
If not, he can follow that well-worn Hopoate path with another club.

Personally I think this is great news. Think about it... obviously with no nsw cup to get an 18yr old body right for 1st grade (coming off 2yrs with no footy), Des is getting him ready for next season.
Given all our problems, hoppa is not capable of coming in fresh and single-handedly turning our club's fortunes in his first few weeks on debut. Let him have a run and a hit with the warriors, gain a little experience, make some errors and poor defensive reads... and just when he starts getting the hang of it - boom back at brookie. Invaluable experience. Well played Desmond

Yep, Harry Grant was loaned for a full season but he is the exception. Any other loan player can be recalled at any time. Roosters recalled Faamausili after they suffered multiple injuries.
He's still a teenager...but agreed

Des will be focusing this as a positive for young Hoppa. Telling him she’s earnt the chance, big part of our future etc. not like he will go to NZ long term, especially with RTS there. The more I sit and consider it, it has to be a good thing for us if he’s not gonna get a start if Toms coming back. There’s every chance we won’t see a reserve grade comp next year either with covid so give him a run. I can see the argument to blood him for us too tho.
Bring back the.... Biff?

Hopoate can pass which makes him better than elliot and he can catch which makes him better than Tafua
Fair play...
