    Wong yes, Tuponiua definite no. Some of the worst defence of any second rower in the comp, plus terrible hands. Robbo does have a love affair with him though, so Wong could be a chance to get impatient and leave. Although who knows, he might be happy to wallow in reserves over there despite the...

    No way its about winning comps then.. Panthers were his best chance to do that and to unlock his potential. How do you feel if you're Siua Wong? I'd be on the phone to him right away if I'm Flano. That is, if we can't land Crichton

    KOE (ex Canterbury Cup) and Jersey Flegg

    Don't think that is until next weekend, so still not sure. Maybe because it will be more physical in the middle for him in both Flegg and city v country than SG and they don't want to increase workload too much? Could explain why Buchanan is still playing as the centres is obviously a bit less...

    KOE (ex Canterbury Cup) and Jersey Flegg

    I'm talking right at the back end of the year. I expect some of these guys to get a couple games of cup. In terms of Russell, he is behind Leilua, Su'a, RFM, R Couchman, Dylan Egan and you could argue even maybe BMM for an edge role. I don't expect us to be in finals contention at the end of the...

    KOE (ex Canterbury Cup) and Jersey Flegg

    I wouldn't worry too much about it.. Halangahu will end up in cup by the end of the year, it's just a timing thing. He's top 30 next year as well, so he's skipped T&T and Supp squads and gone straight into the top 30 for 2025. Russell, Shereb, Coric will end up making way for sure later in the...

    Finau not playing in Flegg now either, they've changed the team list. Not sure why he isn't playing

    KOE (ex Canterbury Cup) and Jersey Flegg

    You would think they'll slowly trickle players into Flegg. I don't think you can promote too many at once, remembering that all of these guys will be in the lower age bracket in Flegg. You risk them getting beaten up and some big scores put on them, and them losing confidence (which the STG...

    Like it or not as well, he is part of the ongoing cultural issues at the club and the terrible perception of the club from the outside. No one is questioning he's been playing well, but given this, it speaks volumes that no one else in the NRL wants a bar of him

    I don't think moving on from de Belin is a bad thing. The catch is: who in the world are we replacing him with? Lawrie is deadset horrendous. Sele and F Molo are bench props currently starting. The young blokes we have coming into the 30 next year look the goods, but they need good forwards...

    Round 10 v Souths

    Incredibly unprofessional, but hilarious at the same time. Hopefully it embarrasses those at the top. Although they've never been embarrassed with anything they've done before. They still let Craig Young deliver match balls and sit in corporate seating at home games. And work for St George...

    Cook is awful. Hasn't been good in years, absolutely not. Not to mention his two forward passes he throws per set would get called in a Red V jersey. Jayden Brailey should be our target for 9, actually a genuine chance Newcastle let him go and is the perfect type of hooker for us to then allow...

BMM That would be the team I'd pick. Bird just not offering enough and comes up with at least an error a game, meaning...

    He was on something like 200k (AUD) in England, Souths have given him 600k. When there's that much of a discrepancy in pay, I guess the decision was made pretty simple. Dragons could've easily gone in for him if they'd wanted him, which means I suppose they didn't

    Multiple people should lose their jobs if something like that happened. I mean those same people should already be out of a job. They'd probably congratulate each other if they did that actually and glam up the signing as "bringing back a player who was in our system from a young age"

    If you want to point out one-off incidents from the game, then didn't you say Eisenhuth doesn't have an offload? He made an offload I recall in the game so there you go. His ruck control is excellent, clearly our best player at this by an absolute mile. And no one ever said he was marquee...

    We need some elite spark in this team. I'd be at least in the market for Fifita. We need to improve this pack significantly. I know we've got a heap of second rowers, but with the amount of cap space we have I genuinely don't think there's an issue recruiting elite talent where its possible...

    The Bermuda triangle@. Sharks r9

    The fact you and Hornby here are trying to compare JDB and Eisenhuth is remarkable and shows blind bias towards one side of an argument. Hornby is on his Flanagan death ride whilst you're riding JDB to death. JDB and Eisenhuth play completely different roles in this team. Eisenhuth's JOB is to...
