Mine is only 2 so the full indoctrination isn't complete yet. Number 2 due in 6 weeks too. Welcome to a life of pain little fellas
They are easy to convert. All mine are Penrith or nothing

As crazy as it sounds if the price for Kikau goes too high I don't think we should chase it. The cost of having a crazy good spine I think
Child abuse if they support any other team other than the Panthers. I am joking about the child abuse too, just in case I offend people.They are easy to convert. All mine are Penrith or nothing

Nope,....Is it wrong of me to love him less than his Panther supporting brother?
Surely you'd get rid of Edwards and Leota before Kikau. Heck if everyone was earning what they'd contributed Crichton would be giving some of his money to Kikau.I know mate but the cap squeeze is going to force us to make massive calls in the future
May be unless our centre got his 800Seems a waste given we will have cap space

PropJust reading some site’s Rd 1 predicted team list. The Panthers number 17 was Lindsay Smith. I’ve never heard of him, what position does he play and how many minutes are you guys expecting him to get? Oh, also, will Leota get the starting gig over Leniu?
I expect Leota to start on the strength of being higher in the pecking order and having played greater minutes last year. The general consensus appears to be that Smith isn't ready just yet.Just reading some site’s Rd 1 predicted team list. The Panthers number 17 was Lindsay Smith.

Kikau finished 11th in the Player of the Year voting on this site, behind 6 other forwards. It's a pretty safe bet that the people who voted felt that he didn't reach his potential in 2020, despite being as dangerous a forward as any going around, and despite the way he tends to create attacking opportunities for those around him by drawing the defence. Maybe he didn't get enough credit for this.I thought a good point was made by suggesting we shouldn’t be breaking the piggy bank for Viliame Kikau. I tend to agree, I’m just not sure he is good value at figures around $800k. For mine, he needs his best season ever in our colours in 2021 to justify giving him really big dollars. He is capable of being a weapon, I’m just not sure he delivers as often as he should given his physical prowess. Probably not going to win any popularity contests on here by saying it, but he underwhelms at times when he really should be a weapon all of the time.
Why did you think Crichton scored so many easy tries where he was barely touched like he was playing wing? Things on a Rugby League don't happen in a vacuum. It happened so often because virtually every time Kikau got numbered up with a half the centres and wingers went oh shit and came in on Kikau creating numbers and space for the left edge. That doesn't happen nearly as often if Liam Martin is playing left second row. We have no one capable of replicating that effect. The only guys who could atm are Taumolo or maybe David Fifita. Maybe that huge second rower/centre the Sharks have.We need to find better terminology than get rid of!!!!!
As has been discussed ad nausea at times we have been forced into a situation where in order to meet our salary cap arrangements we have found ourselves in the unfortunate and sad situation of having to ‘move’ contracted players on.
‘Getting rid of’ is rather harsh in these politically correct times.
I can’t quite remember who posted it, may have been Herbert, but I thought a good point was made by suggesting we shouldn’t be breaking the piggy bank for Viliame Kikau.

Yeah you upgrade Staines then you play a kid on the cheap on the wing to replace Staines thus saving money for a few years until you upgrade him. Same with Leota, replace him with say Lachlan Timm the best prop in reggies in 2019 if you judge by numbers.
