Interesting that you should bring Tupou up. Here's an overseas threequarter from the NRL that a Sl club signed up during the season with free cap space.

Kind of what you're advocating we should do.

Oh yes, the Bulls experience with the now sacked Tupou is a great example for you to bring up in support of your proposition.
I hope Leeds follow the same path. really, I do.

I remember telling Bullseye on here that McNamara was way too young and inexperienced for the Bulls and that Toupou was no replacement for Vainikolo.

He didn't agree with me back then using Matty Elliot as an example.



I could see where he was coming from but still you can't always be right.

I didn't need to bring up Toupou when Leeds already had their very own Toopi experience.

On the other hand Lauitiiti hasn't worked out too bad and elsewhere Dobson steered Catalans around quite nicely in Jones' injury absence and 100% saved Wigan and the RFL from fudging on their imminent relegation from SL.
