Round 1 of 2026

[Stake Removed]

Taking that Ison is fit.

1. Ison
2. Stonestreet
3. Gabreal
4. Iro
5. Mulitalo
6. Trindall
7. Hynes unless we can Jag someone DCE or Metcalf
8. AFB
9. Brailey
10. Burns
11. Nikora
12. Wilton
13. Colquhoun

14. Talakai
15. Kaufisi
16. Hazelton
17. McCullough/Tuuks/Felix
18. Pollard/Ford

I was tempted to keep Katoa, but we need genuine speed Gabreal, Stonestreet together are that risk they could leak points.
Burns at prop, he reminds me of Mitch Barnett when from backrower to prop has leg speed and a jink.
The 7 we need to move Hynes on, if it's DCE for a year or get Metcalf back, both an upgrade, and time to get minutes into Pollard.
The 17 has to be a shoot out Tuuks and younger brigade.
Left Toby and Uele out it's time they are moved on.
The squad from 2025 will not win us a comp, it's meets to be adjusted in areas

Geezus Stakey I'm still coming to terms with how 2025 went. Cant you give us a period to mourn first

[Since 73]

Have you got 2027 as well?

 

[Poss]

Where did you get Metcalf from?

 

[shaggs]

Where did you get Metcalf from?

I’m more concerned how he thinks Trindall is a better player than Hynes.

We would be better off with Hynes at 6 and pollard at 7.

 

[Quigs]

Geeze our off season is off to a flyer

 

[shadowboxer]

Which multi verse is this?
You lost me at ‘I was tempted to keep Katoa’… sorry it was ‘Taking that ISON is fit’ whatever that means

 

[Ozzi_78]

We have the bye in round 1

 

[Stake Removed]

Where did you get Metcalf from?

Off contract end of next year, sign him for 2027 get to agitate for release.
Example home sick, we can't place nice anymore

We would be better off with Hynes at 6 and pollard at 7.

I don't think he is, the thing is we signed Hynes to be "A" player but his "B" level, Pollard needs time he could play 2nd fiddle but it can't be to Hynes or Trindall and expect us to win

 

[Miller was a legend]

f**k you remind me of my brother

not the smart one either

 

[Quigs]

We have the bye in round 1

Soft draw again! Sheeze when is it our turn to cop the bad one

 

[roboshark]

I think it's unfair that we don't get 27 byes

 

[Dragon Slayer]

I think it's unfair that we don't get 27 byes

We’ve had 5 byes for awhile.

We play the Dargons twice a season.

 

[roboshark]

BB and AFB in dally m team of the year

 

[shaggs]

I don't think he is, the thing is we signed Hynes to be "A" player but his "B" level, Pollard needs time he could play 2nd fiddle but it can't be to Hynes or Trindall and expect us to win

I think you stick a proper halfback in the side and Hynes becomes an A level 5/8

 

[Since 73]

Can't remember who the 4 teams are but Vegas round is a ratings killer next year.

Knights are one

 

[Quigs]

The Orange Buffoon and his home security mob might have a bit to say come round 1 nek year.

If they find that an attempting visiting international tourist has had something naughty or nasty things to say against the Trump, even as little as social media entries then they can and will be refused entry to the god damn U S of A.

International tourism to the joint is down dramatically and if you follow what is happening with the upcoming World Cup Sookarh it is an eye opener. I think it is ten countries so far that have now been out right refused entry.

Canterbury and their very strong Lebanese following supporters could be in strife with 'The Home Security' especially those with sympathy to the Palestinian plight.

And Las Vegas visitors have bottomed right out and a lot of places are going broke.

It is one very furhucked up country at the moment and is getting worse.

It is fun for me to watch it as it all unfolds. 330 million people with over 800 million known firearms what could possibly go wrong.
