  • He's baaaack. FPN walks out on Wigan, looking for an NRL deal

    We need an experienced prop.

    FPN had as many Pros as Cons with us IMO, but perhaps he has matured and ironed out some of his flaws. Sometimes the islander boys need to leave the family for a while to mature - take a look at how good Soliola was after returning from a stint in the Super League.

    If Frankie is fit, for about 150 - 175k i'd have him back.

    Having a fired up Titsvano and Cranky Franky coming off the bench at the 25 min mark would have a few teams nervous.

    I agree and if he will take the money you mentioned he would be a bargain off the bench.

              I tell you who I miss and I feel were silly in letting him go was Suaia Matagi he added some real venom in the middle third, off contract at the end of the year and would be a good pick up depending on dollars.

                    Lay off the drugs... There is a reason we let him go and a reason he left Wigan early. Soliola was actually pretty decent in the backrow before he went to England. He simply found his best position as he was too slow for the backs.

                      I can barely remember him ever making an impact for the roosters, was it him in a match for the raiders who gave away an unexplainable penalty off the ball and cost them the match when the raiders basically had it in the bag?

                      Every year we waited for this tough guy to make an impact, and disappointed every year.

                      Send him to Newcastle.

                        Yeah what was the go there? We literally had him for half a season, he killed it then Pemriff grabbed him and didn’t even use him. So random!

                          Plus an end of year bonus of $200k, less $5k for each penalty or dropped ball.

                            You got my vote there. Frank was too penalty prone and easily gassed. Matagi was consistent, looking for work, fearless and played big minutes with quick play the balls. But I think he's happy where he is.

                              So basically he would be paying us to play.
