I'm sure the club will or has already found a suitable replacement.

That would be cool, he and Olam would be a good combination of outrageous hair styles.

I'm assuming Grant is the replacement. Fingers crossed that the club has also poached a junior talent that could fill the role Tino played.

Good memory Mattpoet, played in 2016. He scored 4 tries for Storm Under 20s v Sharks one day.

Former Parramatta forward Tepai Moeroa will return to rugby league to play in the purple jersey for the remainder of the 2021 season.

Excellent signing. Rugby Australia are also chipping in some money so you’d think the Storm got him really cheap.

Evidently Rugby Union Australia are chipping in a 6 figure sum

He is 6ft 3in tall and 113kgs

We need him this weekend with Nelson out.

Tepai Moeroa was a consistent player at the Eels. He didn't exactly set the world on the fire at the Waratahs but who has?

Good signing for depth and will help us rest players, particularly those who are playing Origin in back end of season.

Interesting signing. He was pretty good his first couple of seasons then dropped off a fair bit. Hard to believe he's only in his mid 20's still.

Be like Leutele last year, depth signing in case but won't be likely to see much game time
