        What about RTS's defence at centre? The tackling style is a little different in RL, so that would be an adjustment.

        I’d say he is a better tackler than what Laumape was when playing league.

        And a better player all round at league by some margin , Roger is a gun

          TBF to Laumape his injuries meant we never really got to see how good he was ... that margin might not have been that big if he actually got play. Instead he opened the door for Kata to dither around.

              @ACT-Crusader yip pretty much.

              As said, not knowing about a subject is no reason not to comment on here. But what you should know about RTS vs a Benji, SBW or Laumape is this guy is one of the best rugby league players ever. Not just right now. Ever.

              If he goes to union he will succeed. I hope he stays in League though.

                    He probably should have come straight away for the best chance of making the ABs.

                      RTS would be taking a huge pay cut to leave the Warriors.

                        He's probably thinking to himself "If Bridge can make the ABs...."

                            Would the Blues be the best place for him to go? Highlanders would probably be the best place with the least amount of competition.

                              @Yeetyaah I doubt he would throw away a career just to play with the likes of Shannon Frizell.

                                        I think he will end up at the Blues or Canes. Only reason I say Canes is he was good buddies with Ardie and Laumape playing for NZ schools so that might entice him to come down. Most likely Blues though as that’s where he is already based and they could do with a better fullback option.
