Reports from down under on social media that Warrington could sign Wests winger Kevin Naiqama on a 2 year deal.

Thoughts?

Small not particularly fast can't defend much. ....

Looks like Rochdale will have a good un half way through the season. ...

sounds like he fits our recruitment profile anyway.

Can he scoot from dummy half, though?

I didn't think we'd be able to get anyone else due to Salary Cap ... he looks good to me.

He's been very good at Wests this season. Suprised they are letting him go.

Obviously not up to the "Biscuit's" standard. Who must have been one of the true greats.

I think we should sign him up. I don't follow the game over there but looking at some posts he's already destined for a successful 'scapegoat' career with us

sorry I didnt realise you had to be state of origin standard like your good self to make flippant comments on a Rugby league Forum.

whats your views on him ..... you do have views and are prepared to stick them on here so the lads that all played pro (to the very highest standard mind) can comment on them and give them their blessing and then maybe you'll get your well earned spot on Rugby League backchat because you're a loving Rugby league genius and really we should close this board down because your wisdom is so great there is chuff all left to say.

on the other hand the thread about a different winger - Jorge Taufua which has similarly descended into whittery .... Taufua i do like, hes a top finisher and real Quality.

if I was given the choice between Naiqama and Uatai id choose Kevin Penny, but Jorge Taufua is a different gravy.....

please add your smart comments in your own time.............. or maybe like me you think Tafau is a top prospect how bad would that be having the same opinion as me...

apologies if ive been getting vexed at a 12 year old...........

He's a good one.
Not a fan of little wingers unless they are solid in all area to make up on height. He does it with knobs on.
An improvement over Russell and Penny.
Potentially would make that difference up where we lacked on the edge against Pies.

Blimey "biscuit" (Mr Angry) settle down.

On reflection don't you think that your response of
"Small not particularly fast can't defend much. ....
Looks like Rochdale will have a good un half way through the season. ..."
Was a just a bit cruel. Hence my response.

re. your playing ability
It's just that normally when blokes have played a bit they tend to be a bit more tolerant of others.
Players tend not to slate each other so easily. So I assumed you'd never stepped onto a pitch.

Happy days eh!

Obviously you've not seen him play,yet another player written off by a doubting Wire fan.Absolute Joke!

He's not a winger Naiqama - extremely strong but no pace what so ever.

Centre/Full back/Half back

He's creative and xfactor but he's not a Hall/Manfredi/Solomona

I'd prefer Jorge Taufua any day of the week to be honest.

Hull FC are after Naiqama as well as us.

I've heard a whisper he's already penned a 2 year deal at Wire.

I played ok. Represented the town at amateur level other than that did ok. .. had reasonable pace was a decent defender but lacked size. Was tough but never dirty never sent off but sin binned loads especially at hooker where I was a particularly obnoxious gob played every position bar prop forward.

All that makes my opinions no more valid than anyone else's though.

I've had premier sports for about three years on the bounce and that means I've seen every league game. So I probably seen more of Naiqama than some of our own players. .... which is why I would have preferred Jorge Taufua. ....

But crack on making assumptions....

Well said. ...

Well "Biscuit" we all make assumptions on bits of info. on here. The facts you give about your rugby career make me think you are a really hard lad and the fact that you say you were gobby probably means you were very very gobby. The picture of Les Boyd etc. gives a clue of your age. etc etc
If I told you I lived near Cambridge ... you'd think I'm posh and wear a cravat. If I told you I got sent off twice (in the same season) you'd think a bit differently (in fact I'm a wimp). I was in the corner where Brian Bevan scored his last try v. Leigh and that tells you a fair bit.

Wouldn't it be fun to meet the regulars who use this forum ... I bet we'd get on great ... don't worry it won't happen. You could walk in with a hat with "Flying Biscuit" on it. Then someone would walk in with "Fantastic Mr Cat" on a label on his forehead. Oh that's "Rubber Duckie!" ... never thought he'd be a vicar. Who is that in the frock? Oh it's the "Offload".

i played hooker for 10 years, represented the town for 4 of them and lancashire.... However i was very dirty. Knees into the tackle, late shots on the ground.. and my particular favorite, dropping the arm off the prop going into the scrum and using it to punch the opposition hooker after we had packed down... i never gobbed off though.. i just kept my mouth shut and got on with business... of course this style of play gets you a reputation over time and i was always a marked man... looked in the mirror one monday morning when i was about 20, with 2 black eyes and a lip with a few stitches in, and thought that my dashing good lucks might be effected if i carried on.. also my knee was shot to pieces and my shoulder had dislocated twice.. so walked away from the game... best decision i ever made.

There's a video on You Tube of his tries - great finisher - strong but only same height as Russell.He has got pace but again similar to Russell in that he would get caught in a clean break situation.He seems to have played most of his career on the wing but this season for Wests has played right centre.He has also played full back for Fiji.Highly rated by press and fans but there are real doubts about his defence according to Wests fans forum.

He's definitely a Tony Smith player.

Reasonable in all areas. Great in none.

God bless you my son.
Me and Kevin Naiqama will share mass.
Amen.

Well here's my opinion.

I've never seen him play, ever.

But I can't bear the thought of starting the season with Atkins and Evans at centre.

So I hope to god that we do sign him, he can't be any worse.
