Levi : Mon Oct 10, 2022 5:51 pm  

Leaving for home. Bad blow for us. We need a replacement as others not good enough.He's been excellent at times and very consistent.

Re: Levi : Mon Oct 10, 2022 6:21 pm  

Indeed it’s a loss.
We have others who can step in AOB, golding has helped out there roby who has yet to play first team but has done well in the lower leagues and of course young rush but no one of the quality of Levi.
Bad timing.

Well Sh*t, best hooker in the league for me this year, real blow, we have a zillion front row/back rowers and just keep signing more, but only AOB as hooker... and good as AOB has been for us Levi was in a different class. This is a massive blow, not sure how we could possibly get another of this quality =x

It sounds like this has been going on for a while so you would suspect a replacement has been lined up as he definitely needs to be replaced.

The issue Is, is there anyone of that quality who is available right now.
Unless tom starling fancies getting away from all of his controversies in aus.
There’s been a bit of movement in hookers in the NRL end of this year, but according to fox sports there are only two NRL hookers OOC and one of those is manase fainu!! the other is Jake Turpin. A completely different player to Levi- definitely not a ball runner a distributor and tackler and not an 80 minute player.
Not sure where Levi is going but let’s hope someone needs to lose someone for cap reasons.
There’s no point getting someone of a lower quality, I’d rather play the youngsters.

Nathan Peats

Sound like Peats who would be an improvement on what we currently have but lacks the speed and power of Levi.
Levi has signed a two year deal with Canberra.

He’s a solid enough player- but he’s not a running player like Levi, and he’s contracted to Toulouse for next season. we need a runner of the ball. Honestly I wouldn’t want to use an overseas spot on peats right now.
I’d love a player like drewy back.

Just as long as we don’t get Matt frawley back in return!
But Tom starling would be nice! Can’t see him getting a visa though

There will almost certainly be a get out clause that kicked in when they got relegated.
