    Prop: Joe 'Apikotoa (unless the Chiefs have signed him)

    Midfielder: Josiah Maraku (if he is PI eligible), Orbyn Leger, Ray Nu'u

    You can take Stacey Ili off your list. He has re-signed with the Rebels.

                @george33 Isn't Ekuasi Fijian? Maybe more a potential signing for the Drua, if true.

                      If Kitone Vai has signed for the Blues is that a develop contract or Full.
                      If it’s full does than put any credence to the Sam Nock rumour of signing with the Chiefs ?.

                        @chris both these 2 are loose forwards , not entirely sure if they are full contracts , but i do know the Blues are very keen to retain them both , be similar to Soane Vikena (hooker ) who was signed last year
                        I would expect both Kitione Vai & Vaiokini Ekuasi along with Corey Evans to be locked in .
                        Still have not heard any further news on Sam Nock

                                      @george33 made a couple of calls , this is how it plays out , if Niko Jones has not secured a contract with MP hes of to the MRL ..looking at the looseforward mix they already have , seems he might be USA bound ..
