Sione Fainu leaving?

I agree. I wonder if it is a possible swap deal to get tuilagi here now.

Foxsports reporting a 3 year deal...shame but hard to tell where some of these guys are at with so much disruption to lower grades

Clever recruiting yet another one off to the Tigers. You can bet it's just a pre-cursor to the lad they really want to pinch from us.
 
Losing Sione - to the Tigers of all clubs - is a shame. Thought we had the Fainu clan sewn up, what with the club's support of Manase through an especially tough time.

Guess we won't be seeing a team full of Turbos and Fainus after all. Hope he get's some experience at the Tigers and finds his way back home eventually.
 
The tigers have overpaid plenty for a player to sit on the bench for flegg

The way the tigers are going he will probably end up captain/coach of the first grade team by the end of the year

mmm...into a struggling club, it's going to be a tough road to hoe. Welcome to the weekly pressure of trying to prove yourself in a low performing club, good luck with that Sione.
The Tugers need to change their thinking. They don't need talented young players; they have one of the biggest and best nursery of players in NSW. They need to change the way they are looking after this talent. Obviously many of their best juniors are happy to be poached, which suggests a culture problem within the club. When you grow up in a region you should want one day to represent its premier team.
If the Tugers concentrated on keeping their best juniors they would continually be challenging for the premiership.
