Happy with this, team is starting to look a lot stronger for next year.

Certainly. Good to get business done early as well. And for all the changes in the pack the spine remains broadly the same, which will help.

Yes, good news. With him, Ratu and Swift that's a decent set of wingers. Acquisitions of Jones, Savelio and Swift also means we are improving our Fed trained contingent. Think our contracted overseas players are:
Faraimo
Tuimavave
Kelly

With potentially 4 free spots to be vacated by Mini, Manu, Paea and Talanoa (is that right?) and strong rumours of Thompson and Sao, think we'd still have 2 spots?

Maybe not.Can see Paea staying one more year

This is great news. For me Faraimo has had as much, if not more of an impact on the team than Fonua.

Not wanting to speculate too much, but I would not think that Swift would relocate to be a back up winger, suggesting that there maybe a question mark over Ratus availability for next year.

Think we will see Swift at centre sometime during the season when injuries hit

Quite possibly. Not heard any about Green.
