Not of a hell of lot between Matty Gicquell & Kibble. I agree McReight is in another league, however Kibble friggin immense for jeeps. Deserves his spot 100%.

I mean local as Australian rather than going off-shore. I'd take Jake Simeon ahead of the QLD NRC props, probably. There's a few options out west too

There are a number of local Brissy props playing at a professional level internationally:
Paul Alo-Emile, Phil Kite, Jack Straker and Albert Anae to name a few, I'm sure there are others.
Most of those guys have had some involvement with the Reds over the last few years and are all 30 years old or younger.

It would be great to get Paul home, it was always a sad day to lose him at the time.
The bloke is literally built to play scrum.

Any word on what Korch is up to next season?

Paul Alo-Emile (Samoa) and Phil Kite (Tonga) are internationally capped. Need to look elsewhere.

I thought we just established teams were allowed to have international capped players? But only a few. What was the go when Braid was playing for us years ago?

The rules have changed many times over the years however since the Force were cut they have tried to push all imports out (until the Rebels signed Frank Lomani for next season).
Would they have picked him even if he had made himself available for Fiji? Seems unlikely given the outside backs talent they have.
If Daugunu has never been capped for anyone I don't think he counts as an international import.

Actually Scott Malolua was injured playing in his test match debut for Samoa and was in line for the World Cup. That would give him one international cap.
I wonder if it means he will be released by the Reds, was he named in current squad?

Without knowing the rules specifically, Maloula was contracted before he was capped so his contract with the Reds remains. But don't expect him to last longer than that.
Daugunu was signed on an international development contract (basically a player with the intention of becoming Wallaby eligible). I don't believe RA are doing these anymore?

I would expect Scott M to be playing mostly QPR next year with Tate and Moses available. I did hear it might be for Norths not Souths though.
I think he might surpass Moses. Was very impressed with him this year.

Moses had a poor start and lost this position. After that he struggled to get much game time sharing the role with LD at Wests. Makes it hard to play your way into form or to continue to improve.
