| Trojan Horse: Wollo-Wollo-Wollo-Wayoo: imwakefieldtillidie: Trojan Horse: After only 1 game it’s way too early for me to decide if Atoni is one we should keep beyond this season.
A few more performances like vs saints and some consistency at SL level would go a long way to convincing me though.
I'm the same with Atoni. Unfortunately he was poor last time he was in SL, he needs to show he's moved on from that.
Give over. He started very tentatively but hit some good form or moved on as you say, once Fifita took him under his wing.
No, I won’t give over.
He was poor 2/3 of the season and improved the last 1/3 of the season. A season which we still finished rock bottom and got relegated.
I want to see some consistent good performances from Atoni before I make my mind up about him.
What exactly is wrong with that?
He has a lot to prove at SL level especially after our last time here in 2023.
I think the 'give over' was aimed at the bit before your post about, ' he was poor last time he was in SL'. As most agree once he got some backup in the middle he finished pretty strong in 2023.
TBf To Atoni, like plenty of guys that arrive from down under, he started slowly and to add to that he was in a poor team, all over the place in structure, quality and confidence. When he got some extra help in the middle when Fifita arrived, we saw him get more & more confidence and he finished the last 10 games or so off well imo he showed he was a SL-quality player. I think he's improved since then, even taking into account the comp last year, under DP and the guys, he's got fitter, finds his front more, rather than milking every meter and cracks on and plays the ball quicker than when he first arrived. For me, it's just about injuries and keeping his form consistent, if he does that he's a quality Prop, who I haven't got many doubts about. |

Agree Faatill is looking the real deal the more he plays ,the Question is who do we leave out of the 17 squad in the forwards when all fit Powell even said he is going to have to make some big decision about the team in a few week when players start returning.
What has impressed me with Faatilli is he hasn’t made any errors. It’s clear there is a player in there somewhere. Now he’s been here a month his minutes have increased to a good 30 minute spell or so. It was 100% the right call to ease him into games and slowly increase his minutes.
It’s a tough call for Powell now Rodwell is nearing fitness and Pitts only has a niggle.
A couple will have to train hard and wait their chance. The likes of Wigan, Saints etc have quality players who miss out but will still train hard and professionally for when they’re needed. That’s about the personality of the player which I hope we have good ones.
Still we have enough quality to rotate a little bit of a forward or two has a niggle so I think we may see minor changes as the weeks go by. The Hull game is a short turn around so players like Scott, maybe Rodwell, Roarke, Walmsley, Russell could ideally give a few pairs of fresh legs and energy options.
I don’t envy Powell but it’s better than the alternative of being down on troops.
I have confidence in pretty much any of our squad to take the field this year.

If as it seems some Salford players may be available I was looking at their squad today and honestly other than quota players there’s only one I think would be of interest. Joe Sharrocks who plays 13.

£75,000 apparently. Not a lot for that quality, but the cap space he frees up for Salford is important...until they fold at least.
