Yeah, I'm pretty sure he was. Was always going to be the case given his family.Was Luke Jones to Wests confirmed already?
BJ hasn’t been a regular First Grade starter for UQ since 2021, Kye will be the big miss if he stays with the Aussie 7’s.Wow the BJ Oats Brumbies announcement is interesting… wonder how the Red Heavies are looking for 2023
Can we start a discussion about his new hairdo then?Guess the announcement settles the Werchon discussion.
East making moves with Ravai - I hear Lucas Ripley has also been offered a Tiger invitation, time will tell.
Or his stupid "advisor" who let him get it.Can we start a discussion about his new hairdo then?

Ravai confirmed with Easts
Alex Mafi (now with the Rebels) has also left Bond and joined GPS. Could play a big part in the later rounds if not with the Wallabies.
Very strange Mafi would end up at GPS (didn’t he have a brother playing for Brothers?) I would have assumed Mafi went to wests… the bulldogs always on the lookout for quality hookers!
Matt Mafi has been playing for GPS for the last few seasons
was he previously at brothers?
That GPS backline looking savage. Wouldn't hate it if Tevita was bought into the Reds squad either, though we don't really need outside centres. Surprised he isn't popping back up at the Force.A few more familar names coming through the woodwork.
Criff Tupou apparently down training with Brothers. Mixed reactions down there to his return.
Tevita Kuridrani apparently either done in France or doesn't have a contract. Likely to retire in Brisbane and could play for GPS. Apparently Nemani Nadolo has sought special clearance from the Tahs to play QPR instead of Shute Shield when Super Rugby finishes, to play for GPS also alongside Tevita and likely Chris would return if the others did.

Western Sydney Two Blues are flogging him as a big signing for their club, can't imagine they'd be too pumped either.how likely is Nadolo?
It be nice for the Tahs to show that kind of compassion to a veteran player but it would set a ugly precedent… I don’t think QLD/NSW are formidable partners like that… more like petty rivals
It's not entirely without precedent already though - Faessler stuck with Randwick last year after being picked up by the Reds. With him only signed on for the year and pretty likely to retire at the end of it I can't see them being too worried about it.how likely is Nadolo?
