IT’S not David Mead the Western Force are after, but rising young league star Chance Peni from the Wests Tigers.
There were definitely conversations between the Force and Mead’s camp, but the club has decided not to make the Gold Coast Titans winger an offer.
Instead, they have turned their attention to 22-year-old Peni, who has yet to make his NRL debut but is tipped to have a bright future having already played for Junior Kiwis and Cook Islands.
At 190cm and 97kg, Peni is seen as an ideal outside back candidate by the Force, who have already signed Bulldogs NRL star Curtis Rona for 2017-18.
