I see this guy is a Mormon and wants to do his mission. Shame, I had high hopes for him.

So he has 8 siblings, no money but nrl talent that does give him the finances to help his family.

How do these guys rationalize giving away their God given talent to go and irritate people in their homes

They can secure their family's future now and go on their religious path when their 30+

Well ... could this be the reason why Fainu wasn't made part of the original 30 ..... rather than Barrett being a **** **** like some have harped on about .....

 

[Woodsie]

.... Also interesting how he also goes out of his way to rap Barrett for having confidence in him and telling him to back himself .....

Could it be that being ready for first grade is based on the individual?

Fainu upgraded to the 30. Cleared to play the season.

Got to love the club's efficiency in letting supporters know. This was completed on Tuesday, as mentioned in the pre-game discussion.

The Sea Eagles.

An agile, well-oiled machine.

No, not really.

Working as a concreter from the age of 13 or 14... should have probably kept that one a bit quiet?

Good read though, hoping he decides to do his mission later in life. Love that he has a chip on his shoulder from being discarded by the Slime

You can get your construction industry OHS white card the day you turn 14.

 

[Top End Eagle]

This guy is tough skilful fast and can pass. API is what API is but we only ever looked dangerous when Hastings was giving him an occasional rest. Watch where the forwards get the ball in this game.

 

[Lyonstomenzies]

Excited to see him running out with the big boys.

Go Manly

Great debut today. Really well done!

Had a lot of support in the stands as well. Nice to see the cameras put them on tv, twice.

 

[sheridanstand78]

This young lad is a breath of fresh air, come on Trent be brave, pick Tom Wright and Jade Anderson too, this is our future!!!

 

[HappilyManly]

So happy for Nase to have half of the stands filled with his proud family

Loved his long pass out wide that led to Joel's try.

Also ran from dummy half a few times which showed his composure

 

[mave]

Excellent debut game.
Long pass is excellent.

 

[Kiwi Eagle]

Good little player, should grow a lot over the remainder of the season

 

[hozza]

Id be holding off on giving API his new deal to see how this young bloke goes for the remainder of the season. He steps up, I’d let API go and use the coin to upgrade this young bloke AND use some much needed cash to strengthen other areas..

 

[XV-1]

He had a good game very solid. Next season we need to play both he and Api like we did today with hodkinson.
Api plays 25-30 then Fainu comes on and stays on until 50-55th minute and taupau comes on around then too.

Correct. With the amount of D Api does his passing drops off after 30 mins.
