both two year deals, so available after Super Rugby next year. Neither setting the French comps on fire

Kemeny would be worth a look too, he's a Sydney boy no?

I'd be going for one of the Qld hookers.... possibly Asiata as the other 2 are wallabies.

Asiata is the only one (potentially) off contract but he's very highly valued. They'll move heaven and earth to keep him, even if that means letting Nasser go early (I don't think it'll come to that though).

Still has a year left in his deal. Angus Scott-young is off contract though. Reds may move on him if Wright is unlikely to play again, but that would probably free up Brial.

Asked the same Q in the Wallabies thread but what's the status and form of Folau Fainga'a?

 

[Major Tom]

Actually with heaven, vailanuand probably Tupou heading overseas that’s decimated front row! They’ll need to get signing. Only Porecki and Dobbins left. Do they have any U20’s from last year or year before coming through?

It seems the Tahs may be moving Heaven to get him.

Blake is signed through next year. Don’t know about Asiata but he’s pretty needed at the Reds. He’s ahead of Nasser. Craig is young and behind all of them and is not signed past 2025 so I can see him moving to get more opportunity.

George (Blake) has also played at loose head more than hooker in 2025. He is starting to look very very good for 16/17 in any Super 23 and of course is comfortable running out for kick off. We really should be watching this guy.
