We have Te Kura coming through as well. I don't think we will lose any of them but if one does, so be it.
Baker starting for the Roosters on Friday might be one reason to watch the game. Not sure if we should be stealing all their players. I feel a bit sorry for the Roosters.

After 'gifting ' them the Turpinator we should have free reign to pick and choose whoerver we want from them.

Didn't he come off the bench in the 30th minute to replace Siua Wong?
Ah true, I'm not sure tbh I was just going off the team list. I didn't notice him whenever he may have been on the field though.

Baker has been named to start a few times recently and then come off the bench come game day with only about 20 minutes in total.
How would you rate him against Palasia?

Honestly, not even close. That said, 2023 Palasia v 2022 Palasia are almost like totally different players. I am looking forward to seeing what Baker becomes in our system. I think he will play a lot of games for us, particularly given Willison has some real injury issues.

If I remember right Jensen didn't get much of a wrap when he came to us, though he was probably thought of more highly than Baker. If Baker can follow a similar trajectory he could prove more than handy.

I think people were generally happy with no real high expectations upon it, most saw him as either a bench player or to add to depth and he has delivered. Definitely the type of signing I like to add to the squad because it raises the quality of the squad.
