@bayimports he’s 19 years old with a shit team around him including no experienced halves. He was great in the World Cup for Tonga when he was 18 or 19?
He was school sports captain, dux etc. Came through the Panthers system but they have Cleary and Luai.
If it’s taking a punt on Katoa or picking Mitch Hunt for the All Blacks I know who I’d go for
Huh? The Dolphins have a decent squad and a good coach, he has experienced halves around him too, just one of them is fat and out of form, and the other one is a rocks and diamonds player.

@Nepia they don’t have a good squad at all. They’ve punched well above their weight in the first few weeks.
You have to realise just to how great the other nrl squads are. Most of them are past or before their best

I said decent not good, but, it's not a shit squad.

So where in that article does it say that Katoa will be playing for the Blues after the World Cup (i.e. 2024)?

@Nepia they won’t because the West Tigers exist
They’ve got Wayne Bennett and the hype of a first year team too

I’m a Goldie fan, but he’s taking the Mickey with some of those picks.
Ratima over Roigard? Nah.
Cane still starting at openiside? Not if don’t win the RWC cough cough…
Razor is a fan of Jacobsen but I reckon they’ll find a place for DP and Blackadder.
Tight 5 looks pretty good.

@ACT-Crusader It is a good sign that they are planning so far ahead. At the moment it is purely hypothetical, as we are only under halfway through the Super Pacific season. We also have an NPC season for a lot of talent to emerge and the 2024 Super Rugby season.

Yeah, not saying I agree with Goldies picks, but I think you (and the panel) missed what the selection was, a team for 2024 picked on form so far rhis season, why I couldn't understand the what about Jordan etc. It wasn't supposed to be who Razor would pick, but on form so far this season Balckadder has hardly played, and Cane has been best 7,and WC hasn't been played. so no good rubbishing team fro wrong reasons.

Really the team beaten by Samoa in their only game that counted in a game they were favourites for?, just out of curiosity, what position do you expect him to play? 10?
who was the last half that successfully transitioned in any country at the top level? (without using the line, he would have success because he would be trans)Look he is young and has talent but I still call BS on future AB. Im sure NZ rugby would say, never say never, I just don't see this happening

The panel may have, but I don’t think Ratima has played better than Roigard this SR season.
Cane has had one decent game (last weekend) and yet Blackadder has been a standout when selected. DP was below his best last weekend but had been excellent the other weeks.

I reckon 12 would be his position, more specifically as a 2nd 5/8 rather than inside centre if you get my drift. I stand corrected but he is a 6 in league isn't he? A 6 in league tends to play like a 2nd 5/8 in union.

He is small and currently doesn't look like the type of half that could take a lot of traffic coming his way. He plays both 6 and 7 in league, I would say arguably he might actually make a better halfback in union than an 10 or 12. He can command a team around well and is developing his game. I don't think he would play 12 in union, for me he would be a 9 or 10 if he did convert. But all guesses based off what i have seen and perhaps with age he could though
