Tiaki Chan : Mon Jun 26, 2023 9:24 am  

And another one!!!!!!

The club have just confirmed the Tiaki Chan signing for Catalans, wonder if there is anymore coming?

I’m assuming he isn’t on quota? If he is it’s an odd one. If not decent project signing.

Federation trained I assume if he's come through the French system. Remember him being very aggressive and enthusiastic playing against us but not seen enough to judge.

He has played for France so presuming not.

Liked the looks of both the Chan brothers when I’ve seen them. I wouldn’t mind getting the other one at some point down the track as well, if he doesn’t start getting first team games at Melbourne.

One thing is you can be assured of he brings some high intensity aggressive play.

Very much in the Isa mould in regards his attitude/approach to the game.

I appreciate he is a prop but I also wouldn’t be surprised to see him be transitioned into a secondrow.

I think Joe is the better player.

I think so. He’s one to keep an eye on over the next couple of years. He’s quite a bit bigger than Tiaki, so that helps. I actually thought Tiaki was the younger brother, but I think the size difference tricked me, as he’s 2 years older according to google.

Hopefully, his brother will be coming next season as well.

Can't say this one fills me with hope, haven't seen him play much, but his stats aren't great and another lightweight mobile forward... is that what we need? We need big men!
