Rts

[Guest]

Keep hearing topou's name being mentioned for next season. Isn't he still off contract off next year??

[Guest]

i may have gotten his name wrong - that young bloke we pinched from the coast last week who is meant to be pretty special

Special maybe but a couple of years away.

he played centre in union and could definitely be an option there - maybe long-term the club sees this goodsell bloke as a long-term fullback which would allow RTS to play centre. Imo, as long as he is somewhere in the 17 I will be happy. A potential long-term left edge pairing or Guerra - RTS - Moga though is tantilising. Moga and RTS swapping around between centre and wing and guerra's hole-running complementing moga's size and RTS' speed and feet.

This does highlight though how interesting it is going to be to see how the team takes the field round 1 as im sure robbo will have some new takes/spins on a few players and positions like smith did which is exciting

I still rate Henare Wells massively, I think he's been somewhat forgotten. Very different player to RTS but very talented.

I hear he might be playing in the centres this year with SKD. Anyone hear anything similar? Would make sense with Moga now out injured.

I hope it's not the same source that told you BJ was going to The Tigers.

No club makes plans for someone who has done nothing to be the long term fullback.

Wells is a touch footballer, he is not NRL material.. Can't tackle and not much chop under the high ball.

Mate its premature to put such an overall rating on a young guy like that.

There is still learning and development taking place.

No it's not.

No it's not.

You make a good case.

RTS is too small for centre, or winger. Okay for fullback. Maybe okay for 5/8.
Needs to put on at least 8kgs and grow another 1/2 a foot.

Yeah I just cannot see RTS as a Centre ever. Fullback and maybe one day 5/8 is where he can succeed.
