    Tau Tau has got ATTITUDE with bigger thighs, a fitting comparison would be 'Jonah Lomu"
    If he achieves only half of what Falou achieved in his time in first-grade, we will still be very happy...

    Powder puff... Pft. Just because you are a soft-spoken nice guy doesn't mean you are a powder puff..

      All I know is that is very, very exciting to have such a great prospect at our club. It should be very enjoyable watching Moga firstly secure his place in the first grade side and then hopefully emerging as one of the most, if not the most exciting youngster in the game. People say don't carried away but I say why not?

        Well he looked fine with the try he set up for Carney from the wing, looks like he will be fine in either position.

            Speaking of Izzy, saw him at the game yesterday. Looking lean. Looked like Will Smith actually haha. AFL would not be happy with his attendance if they knew. Got told off last season for watching his little brother play for the Eels.

            Moga would succeed on the wing outside Leilua to start the season but I think he will start at left centre. His ability to set up his outside man was a massive part of his game last season. That break was the only wide out-ball service he got off the back of a quick play the ball all game. The rest of his runs were from dummy half or off short balls from the halves.

              Tau Tau & Aubusson will be the centre combo against the Tigers.

                Powder puff meaning Izzy would smack you indefense & apologise

                Tau Tau will smash you in defense & say 'there's more comin'

                I'd say he'll play right centre against Lawrence & Leilua left centre next weekend....

                  Are you telling us your opinion or stating a fact?

                    The guy is our number 1 backrower, forget about Maubs & the centres.

                    Maubs will play backrow for the NSW soon.

                      & IMO Carney outside Leilua in the left & Perrett outside Moga on the right.

                        Letting go Phil Graham was a big mistake imho.. That way you could have paired hip up with Moga on the left and Leilua and Perrett on the right which would be a good balance of experience and youth. Moga would set up a thousand tries for Graham with his offloading.

                          106 kilograms is enormous.

                          It is bigger than Tasi, I think.

                              Doesn't look like there's an ounce of fat on him either!!! Reading his weight I've been thinking oooh yar yar... another big waist heavy coconut with size about all he's got going for him if he can get himself into shape without getting severely injured in the process.

                              But ya!!! I keep checking out the photos... he's a fit lad!!!!

                                It is very difficult for large guys like that to change direction and defend a sidestep, or turnaround and chase a kick behind the line.


                                It will be interesting to see if Moga can make an NRL career out of being an outside back, or whether he follows Tony Williams into the second row, or Soliola to ESL.
