I don't think he can be really judged off one international game this weekend. BA will know him well enough to know his weaknesses in defence, and hopefully but a structure in place to not get him isolated. Looking at his highlights/tries, he seems to score the same try over and over again, which implies teams can review it and try to defend against it, but he'll still score. Really confident in the backline to get some good metres out of backfield and set a platform for the forwards. Hopefully it enables Ackers to run at broken lines a bit more.

PS: the video of Maika's dad coming over to surprise him for Fathers Day is brilliant.

If it is the case I hope we have a clause in the deal that says we get first refusal should he decide to come back to SL.
Or does that only apply if he was contracted to us and we receive a fee?
Like others have said it might be a bit soon for him to try his luck out there something Arthur referred to when it first came about.

Riley Lumb signed up until the end of the 2029 season.

Suspect the Lumb news was put out yesterday because they knew this was coming. Poor all round, Gannon has shown no loyalty, the club have been very slow off the mark and they are now trying to put up a smokescreen which is not fair on Lumb.


Should all have been handled better by everyone.

Hopefully Gannon signs next 

He is signing next, for New Zealand Warriors.
