Always wait for official confirmation

I am guessing from that affirmative? Instead of the Saab or additional maybe?

Thank you mate by the way - apologies for my lack of manners.

So is this because the Saab deal fell over? Surely we can't add Saab aswell without releasing an outside back, we are way overloaded on backs if we also add Saab.

Great signing if true. He's big, strong and fast this kid.

Yep, pretty much like for like minus a few centimetres.

EDIT-Yep, it would seem so... I don't have any inside knowledge.

Tafua must be nervous....how long before the " England is a great place and snow isn't that cold " discussion gets started by his manager ?

 

[joeboy]

Great signing, much better than Saab

Surprised the roosters let him go

Tafua surely put out to pasture now.
