Official: Jamie Buhrer signs a 2 yr deal with the Knights

Tilse is playing for Hull KR.
Reviews are mixed from what I read.
They didn't like him at first, but seem to have warmed to him.
 
Tilse no thanks that's why he is in England no one here wanted him big big no thanks.
 
Snowden was a gold medal sprinter compared to Tilse, with how much more athletic people are now compared to 5 years ago he would get belted in the NRL.
 
I thought slowden was bad enough. I couldn't take a slower less effective version of him. Get some asada into snowy and he was unstoppable. Haha.
 
Ive said it a few times already this yr, the only forward id want here from the SL is Cuthbertson.

The rest are no better then what we have in our current team or are 33+

Whitehead, Soliola, Moa, Cooper, Ellis, Graham, Burgess bros.

Forwards over there can often transition to NRL pretty well. There's currently a few forwards over there definitely worth a look imo.
 
The ESL teams don't train as hard as NRL clubs.
You never know which players will improve with NRL level training, and which won't.
Hodgson ia a classic example. He was good but not great in the ESL, but the more he trains, the better he gets.
Even the Burgess brothers weren't that good till they started training with Souths.

I think most good, youngish English forwards have some improvement in them when they start proper training, but the question is, how much, and how do you tell which ones have the most improvement in them?
 
Can he fill in the halves do we know? Only because of the injury prone Mullen, we need a versatile gidley like player who can cover a range of positions
