  • Foketi

    This MFer is going to be a beast for us.

    My favourite of all the new starters.

    Hats off to him.

    You could see from when he first debuted that he could play & credit to the Roosters pathways, we just have to hope now that he can be consistent & hopefully not get injured much.

            Foketi needs to make the tough call and change his last name to Butcher.
            I know it sounds shit, but Salesi Butcher will guarantee you a place in the team for life!

              I'm a big fan of Foketi and his progress has been my favourite part of the season so far. I'd love to see him move to lock during Radley's absence which would unlock his running game more, when I first saw him in the trials a few years ago he played lock he was reminiscent of a young Anthony Tupou crashing through the defensive line up the middle Souths couldn't handle him. He does a very good job at prop but there's more to his game that we could get out of him in the 13 I reckon.

                We need to lock him up long term, before the Bears or others try to entice him away from us. He is going to be a superstar!!

                  I agree Simp mun. He is definitely a 13. But looks like he can play anywhere in the forward pack which is fantastic for us.

                  He’ll play at the highest honours. Anyone know who he will represent? Hopefully a Blue.

                    club site says his junior club was in auckland so maybe nz.
                    a forward with a lot of skills and as we learned last night good speed

                      Definately a gun in the making.I was hanging out for him to play firstgrade and isn't dissapointing.Read an article a few weeks ago he was in the top 10 fastest blokes in league..he came 10th.

                          Nah we don't want him missing club games due to origin. Hopefully he stays loyal to NZ.

                            Any chance you can dig the article up and share it here (or cut & paste).

                              I wish that Robbo would go back to that 2020 style of play where we ran through teams up the middle with short passing combinations and a rampaging Teddy/forward on the end of it I think Foketi would be perfect for that because he's quick and hard to stop once he's going.
