in states in a paper that oldham are in talks with macenzie yei.

the ex featherstone prop with a view to signing him.

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 🤔 🏉

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 😉 😀 👍

Sounds like an announce at 10am tomorrow 

 

With the best, thats a good bit of PR, though I would say the Bedford team, theres, like, you know, 13 blokes who can get together at the weekend to have a game together, which doesnt point to expansion of the game. Point, yeah go on!

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.
