Some might say it's probably a bit late for that.

A raw talent but at 6'3" and 130kg, I wouldn't be too keen on getting in his way.

He comes from good stock. His old man was some player, albeit in wendyball.

His grandad, surely?

He's massive, and he's pretty quick too, but he's raw. Obviously Uncle Tony sees something he thinks he can work with. There definitely looks to be some potential there.

[Big Picture]

Apparently he only has 7 NRL appearances to his name, how will he qualify for a visa?

Is it Ray Parlour?

To use the popular Aussie parlance Pele has had big wraps put on him about being a NRL rookie gun prospect all throughout his junior development and was part of the 2018 Australian schoolboys tour to England that lost 2-0 but hasn’t really kicked on with his NRL career like some of his other teammates from that losing touring party.

He has to get the number 10 shirt.

He’s called Pele and is a forward it’s the perfect fit or should that be tight fit for the number 10 shirt.

It’s just a shame that pele didn’t crack the sharks 1st team and link up with Ronaldo mulitalo.

Big and quick probably compensates fortl the current rawness....looks great on paper

Peters is looking forward to the derby already.

He could dust off his boots and don the number 16 shirt.
