Today's Sunday telegraph has us interested in Sione Faumuina as a replacement for BK.

Height: 190cm
Weight: 101kg
Current Club: Vodafone Warriors (No 98)

Apprantly Evarn Tuimavavei is also testing the market at the moment and he would be a good replacement for Kylie.

I'd be happy with Sione, tho the warriors would have to release him

Whoever gave the info about Tuimavavue is about a month behind the times, he signed a multi year deal with the Warriors

Faumuina would be great but i cant see it happening. I am pretty sure he has a long term deal with them, and also there is the other factor of when he was at canberra he walked out on his contract due to homesickness. Is a bit older now, and has had a stint in Hull, so maybe over that but who know

I like Sione but i'll believe it hen i see it!!

He's no BK (who is??) but he'd go alright

It sounds like the Warriors have financial problems and may need to offload some players.

will ad some good creativeness to the attack, could work well in tandem with Beaver running off him, gives us another point of attack apart from orford
