  • David Fifita

    According to channel 9 Fifita has flew into Sydney & has met with Penrith about joining them. He has a player option at the Tits & has to round 10 to take that up. The JFH money now becoming available makes it more possible & Panthers want to find out his motivation et. Would slot straight in there & certainly keep them up the top for a few more years.

      Fire up the BBQ Robbo, let's get this done.

      Apparently has until Thursday to activate the Round 10 release clause in his contract.

        He’s a great player but his really good performances are few and far between. If you compare his form to Angus this season it’s chalk and cheese.

          Fantastic player, but I like our second rowers at a much lesser cost. Even though Angus is in good form, I can’t imagine he will be commanding much over 650 for his next contract. That’s a big difference to Fafita who will want 1 mil.

            if we could afford him I would say yes. A lot of unfulfilled talent in Fifita.

              Yep and for those who doubted Gus & said 'move him on right away, he's past it' THIS is why you support a guy through mental health challenges. If he can fight through all the shyte he did (being tasered, arrested, scheduled, forced to take the wrong meds which farked him up...etc) then he'll not only be USTOPPABLE when he returns, he'll probably be loyal as well.

              I'll take Crichton any day of the week in his current form.

                Woodfired pizzas and French wines in his mansion that overlooks Bondi beach! Where's my invite?

                  If Gussy is definitely going then I'd take Fifira. But I hope Gussy stays.

                    I’d rather Gus re sign
                    however if he goes out edge looks average unless Wong steps up - he seems to be the only other who could dominate in time
                    If Gus goes Fifita would be worth a look
                    get him the ball early and watch him dominate

                      Well said.

                        I’d much prefer Gus too, he’s been close to if not our best this year, and was pretty handy at the back end of last year as well. Happy for Fifita to take the other starting 2nd row spot though.

                          He is a lot like Latrell, can do things that most players can't, but can go missing.

                          If we are able to get him it would give us another impact player to help fill the hole that Manu will leave.

                          If we can't afford him or even if we have no intention of signing him, I hope Nick makes whoever does pay top dollar.

                            Well said Ism22, and kudos to those fans that stuck solid behind Gus.

                              Gus is in career best form and arguably the best edge forward in the comp. Our left edge hasn't looked this good since Cordner retired. He's also the perfect chaperone for a small half. Big, strong, mobile, skilled and composed. We must do whatever it takes to retain him!
