Sheck is one of the best young players i have ever seen.We dont want to lose this kid he will be better than folau cheaper too hes already here.

I have always said hes our future X Factor so to speak hopefully he gets a go in the later rounds of the competition!!

Guys ill tell you one thing that Folou will never be the same player again especially since hes lost 5-8 Kgs of muscle and lost his speed and strength waste of money IMO everyone seems to be forgetting about RTS atleast give him a chance id say

Speed is natural. How do you lose it?
And how do you know he's lost his speed? I assume GFL players do plenty of sprint work.
5-8 kilos of lost muscle is a big difference. What is it? 5kg? 6kg? 7kg or 8kg?
He could gain that weight in an off season.
Why not have both RTS and Falou if that's possible??
We'd be mad not to be in the hunt for Falou if he decided he wanted back in league.
Anyone not excited at the prospect of Falou coming to The Roosters has rocks in their head. They may as well go watch Bondi United on the weekends and continue to support the 'youth' policy!

AFL is a whole different kind of fitness to League - which is why Folau did so much work on changing his body shape for AFL.

Based on what I was reading when he went to AFL from League, I suspect it will take him more than an offseason to get back to League shape.

Depends who's training him I guess. Depends on how committed Falou is. If Falou was able to transform from a league build to a GFL build than surely he can change back with the right training.
I'd take the GFL type body shape of Falou over any of our current clowns and day of the week.

Don't disagree, just question how long. It took him a year to transform from League to AFL, just wonder how long it will take him to come back the other way.

I would be happy with the signing but wouldn't be expecting much year one.

I would be. We wouldn't be signing him to look good!
Some rookies come into first grade and star immediately (not at our club unfortunately). Why couldn't Falou who is an origin player come back to league and be a star straight away??
