Official Oregon Kaufusi

[HaroldBishop]

Who misses out next year with a fully fit squad? Assuming Jack is retained, one of Toby, Kaufusi, Tommy, Talakai, Williams or BHU must drop out for AFB to start.

Tough one that I can't answer tbh, great headache for Fitz to have.

 

[Sevshark]

Problem is someone has to budge for AFB.
And Kafusi/Williams are the only 2 off contract.
Unless we try move on Hunt - but then one of the above have to drop to NSW cup (or Rudolf)

Fact Tuks is playing ahead of him right now says alot

I guess that depends on Iro.
If he goes, Sifa moves back to centre.
If not, then it’s a good problem to have and you pick “horses for courses”.

In saying that thou, I’m sure injuries (and dare I say, suspensions) will dictate along the way.

I always though Sifa would age out of centre within next few seasons. Just not very great lateral mover anyway and will get harder and harder to keep weight low.

I could see a spot opening up for a contest if Iro left - Sifa, Stonestreet, Gabrael, Vea'ila probably all in contention. You can get a good centre from that lot with another preseason under their belt fighting for it.
Sifa a good chance of winning but may transition back to forwards during next season, or following it.

Happy to keep Iro though if we can

To an extent Finucane already budged.

We'll see how much anyone else needs to still - Kaufusi (better offer) or Hunt (better opportunity) most likely, maybe Rudolf but he just extended and you risk squad instability if you try and force him out (they've warmed to him eventually!)

Very happy from him scoring a try. Reward for his efforts this season.

 

[jocktheshark]

I feel amazingly reassured when he is on the park , unassuming and hard working , happy for him to be in our team .

 

[Western Sharkie]

Another nail in Hunt’s coffin (at the Sharks) perhaps?

 

[Blue_Eyes84]

Great game today.

 

[Shortfin Mako]

I think he is getting used to his role now.

 

[MMsharks]

agree with all the comments

going well, strong and doing his role; next few weeks will be good for him

 

[Gards]

Beautiful man

Doing good things for us with and without the ball

I don't really get why a barge over try with half a team hanging off you counts as a line break though

Has nothing to do with Hunt.

Most people were happy offloading Oregon last yr too.

[Capital_Shark]

I know I am & I was for keeping Oregon.

 

[Super Impose]

Hunt is signed through 25.

Only forwards off contract at the end of this year are Burns, Williams and Kaufusi (mutual option)

How does the mutual option work again ?

Both club and player have to agree to its activation before a certain time, not sure which round it has to be activated by though.

Mate wtf would you do if you had Oregon waiting for you on one bed and Ellie on another?

 

[Art Vandelay]

hes playing well.
good problem to have

Royce is the odd man out now

Yeah I think the dollars are already set and both have to opt in.
