Fifita signs with Roosters
David Forfeita meeting his manager at a Gold Coast cafe this morning. It’s where he made the decision to quit the Titans and become a free agent. He wasn’t interested in talking. That was left to his coach. I guess it’s disappointing, but it’s also, you know, it’s it’s part of the it’s all part of the game. It’s all, it’s all part of the theatre. Don’t try and tell Dez that Fafita is getting out because the Titans are struggling. I think that’s unfair to say he’s a band in the ship. He’s made a decision. So it’s not about abandoning ships. Everybody knew what was on on the table, so that’s unfair to say that. 9 News revealed the Roosters play for Fafida and now he’s heading to Bondi. His new teammate Victor Radley was promoting next week’s Beer, Footy and Food Festival at North Sydney. He’ll be happy to have the Titans tear away in his team. It’s a powerhouse. I’ll take him. Victor knows first hand how good for feeder is. He’s got kind of good footwork and fend and stuff. So he’s not someone which runs straight out and you can try and flatten, so you got to kind of have your wits about it with him. So I don’t think anyone’s going to really flog him. I think you just. Doing your best not to get thrown off, really. Is that good? Yeah. Or stepped or stepped or anything. Yeah, he’s just, he’s got a lot more than just running. I’m alright with someone running straight at me. I’m able to step in this big lad, run shot at me. It’s the footwork, defend and everything with his power. Power is that’s what makes it difficult. Off contract Angus Crichton could have to make way for the new recruit, but Radley wants him to stay. He’s really revived his career and his life in a lot of ways, hasn’t he? Yeah, for sure. I think we always knew he would. Especially seen how hard he was training in the preseason. The day I got back, he was that jacked and apparently he was just training all offseason and he kind of had his mind set on what he wanted to do. And he’s doing it now, so that’s good.
