Former schoolboy Superstar leaving NRL: Heading To The Canes

[kiwiinmelb]

He is playing for the Storm right now for those that want a look at him

<p>NRL Game on atm (Melbourne vs Bulldogs) and the commentator mentioned in the first half that Nelson is staying put. Wonder how or why those rumours started in the first place.</p>

probably the usual stuff,<br><br>managers shopping their players around near contract renewal time to up their asking price and hopefully create a bidding war.

<p>so that's the 2023 world cup fucked for us then?</p>

<p>I think Rugby as a sport is fucked for us now, to the Lydia Ko bandwagon folks !</p>

<p>Since it was apparently all just agent-talk, I'd like to put forward a proposal that this thread be deleted and we shall never speak of this NRL superstar again in any rugby union capacity. He toyed with our hearts, the cruel yet physically impressive bastard. Nelson Asofa-Solomona, that is, not Canes4Life. Although C4L might be carrying tickets to the gun show for all we know. </p>

<p>So has Nelson actually looked impressive yet at senior level?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Because Akira Ioane was ripping it up last year in Super rugby. And I'd imagine he would be a weapon at NRL level too.</p>
