You can't force a player to stay. Free will is a thing.

We've lost exactly 4 players from our Top 30 for 2022. 2 of them (Hopgood and Jennings) have a combined 1 match played through 12 rounds of NRL.

The sky isn't falling.

It is amazing the amount of people on here that think x player is leaving club didn't want them...

Some players we should go harder for BUT if their path is blocked. The clubs hands are tied

So true. You can't blame kids looking for an opportunity. Which they currently don't have at Penrith.

There will be some who want to stay and learn from the NRL stars, (even if it's only short term). Sean O'Sullivan for example. Others are impatient.

Is it because O'Sullivan was sucessful running the team when Cleary was out in the first few rounds.
My point is teams looking to poach a half should know that. Halfback is such an in demand position compared to five eight. If he can get a five eight gig somewhere he should be able to get a gig somewhere in a position with dramatically less depth like halfback.

Well well well, Marshall King to the Dolphins, We should have made a play for this guy. Watch him excel under Wayne, would have done a job for us. With him and Matterson added Dolphins look so much better, if they can get Munster the following year I think they would have done a excellent job.

Awesome news. He, Mav and young Mason Teague will be the next few forwards we bring through over the next couple years.

Throw in Hassett too

Player of the year in Ball
Man of the match in City v Country the other week.

No one will be ready to go next season but 2024 who knows

Henry is another good one, more the solid toiler type than a star but we will need some of those as much as we need stars in our pack, hopefully he can kick on and take the place hopgood was going to take in the next year or so.

Reminds me of NYC aged Yeo.

needs to bulk up though. A pre season will help
