I'd say that is a little inaccurate - at the moment, this signing is to replace Flannery. It's not certain that Puletua will be leaving yet, and I'd bet he doesn't go to Wire if he does leave.

why?...hes awesome

He's good looking at stats and opinions don't watch much NRL but the point is that saints always moan at us about signing 30+ year old Aussies then do this so it's nice to know that if we sign anyone then saints are no longer in a position to moan about it. He's probably on less than graham too so could be quite a savvy signing tbh

Good signing IMO.



Not exactly a spring chicken, but he'll do well for Saints.

I watch the NRL regular and he's a fantastic signing. It's just what we need. He was very sought after and saints pulled it out the bag. Leeds, hudds, NRL clubs all wanted him and titans are gutted he's gone.



My only concern is he'll be 31 when he arrives but at the moment he's showing no signs of being finished.



He's been injured but due back Monday night and 4 weeks earlier than he was expected to return.

I'd imagine he'll fill a role not unlike Phil Bailey did here - Saints are haemorrhaging experienced players at the minute so an older head with plenty experience to mentor their impressive crop of youngsters is probably what they need rather than a novice.

True, we do need few old heads to balance out the young lads that are coming thru.



I'd say he's a lot better player than Bailey but I see your point which is a very good one.

Interesting that the Titans have left a mentoring position open for him when he eventually returns to Australia, must be a real pro and role model. Exactly what Saints need really given the current situation of senior players leaving the club.



Not a bad player to boot.



Should go well if he can adapt to living in the UK quickly.

Another one we've missed out on.



This will come back to haunt us.

A good signing, look forward to seeing him in Super League.
