Faulalo must be highly regarded they've given him 2 spots in the 30.

Faulalo must be highly regarded they've given him 2 spots in the 30.

Could be another form of an upgrade .
On a serious note however , hope that James can come on a bit better this season , showed a bit of promise with some decent yardage with Blacktown about mid season or so , , then seemed to slacken off a bit
Defence looks a bit on the ordinary side also , well just in the few games that i saw him play
Think that he really has to show a bit more to warrant a top 30 spot

is it possible to have 2 Tommy Turbos instead?
So the well informed list has 27 players plus add Waddell and Hopoate. So one spot left. Is that how everyone sees it?

Yep. But Patolo currently only train and train can't play till after 30 June. Chee Kam currently only development which can play rd 1 onwards but less $. So those blokes or a bolter fighting it out for an upgrade.

Sorry if asked before. Can someone please explain how an 18 year old who will be playing SG Ball and maybe Jersey Flegg, not even eligible for NRL, gets a precious top 30 place.

My guess is that what was required to get him to sign? Size of contract and cap restraints required a top 30
