How old is he and is he any good, because all our props seem to be fit, unless it's someone who they are looking at for next season 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big lad then, it's about time we had big props who can break the line and off load, which we haven't had till this year, and he's just at the right age 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Art of Hand and Foot Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 According to the 2 threads about him on the fev forum he was injured and left in order to focus on his rehabilitation. So he's either recovered or he's been signed in readiness for next season! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roughyed Rats Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 Great signing if he can stay fit. Good age and a really explosive player. Not sure we really needed strengthening in the pack as we are very strong there already but I'll take it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Phantom Horseman Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 (edited) Looked tremendous for PNG at the World Cup and made a big impression when he first joined Fev. Started to become a bit careless with offloads though and then injured his knee mid-season which kept him out for a lengthy period. Made his reappearance in Fev's final league game but didn't really impress and didn't make the squad for the play-off game. His knee was still reportedly an issue at the start of this year and wasn't seen until making his return in the Cup game at Leigh where he didn't look to be anywhere near fully fit, had plenty of support on his knee and wasn't running in with the same venom as last year. He was also sin-binned for a tip tackle and subsequently given a 4-game ban. The piece on the Oldham website about the 4-game ban starting this weekend is incorrect, it's already expired (or will have after this weekend). On his day he is indeed a wrecking ball, the question will be whether or not he can get back to full fitness. I think the comment from James Ford about "he hasn't quite nailed his recovery" explains a lot about his departure, but he won't need to be at his best to prove difficult for L1 defences to handle. Seems a great guy, likely to be a big fan favourite, especially if he can get back to something like his early-season form of last year. Oldham now have 4 players from Fev's pack that steamrollered Keighley in the opening game of last season.

I might have been mistaken about this tbh...he left Fev in early April so his suspension probably still has a few games to serve, though it sounds like he's still not fit enough to play anyway.
