Are you saying Nutz is better than Morewood? BLASPHEMY!

Morewood, is in fact, a much more consistent player than King.

Consistantly bad. King is the king of props.

Long live the King.

Yeah, I saw that Disco.

Did you watch the Newtown game on Sunday ? Tonga had a real dig. Big and robust which is what we need.

I like what i saw but must temper that with the fact it was just PL and it was a Grand Final and if someone doesnt have a dig in a GF then they shoul be shot..lol.

Like Hall?

Tonga would be a wicked signing. He looked really powerful and very intimidating in the PL game. Even going back to when he played for the Dogs he was a good player, and very effective in short bursts.

In my eyes, he'd be the ideal replacement for Lulu and would slot straight into a bench spot.

I'd be a bit surprised if the Roosters let him go, but I guess they have signed three front rowers in the off season (Nuts, Beattie and Myles can play prop as well). That tempers the loss of Morley somewhat I guess...

Tonga hardly plays the style of footy that Stuart likes (neither did Rose). Stuart is more of a fan of the mobile pack. Small front rowers with a high workrate, but basically just taking the field with 5 backrowers who rotate the work effectively. Tonga didn't fit that role, and as such didn't play as much footy as he really should've at the Roosters. That's how I saw it anyway, he's definately a first grade player.
