@Saints1890 Kevin Naiqama! I love life!

Seriously @Saints1890 whoever signed Holbrook deserves a medal. 3 years ago we was singing Dawson and Owens. Now weβre signing barba and naiqama. We was playing 5 runs and a kick now we can score from anywhere. What a time to be a saints fan.

How good would it be to see an @Saints1890 back 3 of Barba, Naiqama and Makinson next season?

With that hair style he will have to play centre to Grace

Sad to hear that @kevinnaiqama will be leaving the @WestsTigers in 2019. Outstanding clubman whose stuck with us true through all the tough times. Countless occasions of charity work and building up a positive image for the club. All the best & hope to see you back at the Tigers

I like how they listed him as a centre. Looks like Morgan is going then

Not even a saints fan but Kevin Naiqama will be quality for them. Looking forward to seeing in him SL

Kevin Naiqama is a bloody fantastic signing for Saints. If they keep hold of Barba, they will be winning trophies next season, I have no doubts about this.
