Rumoured & Confirmed Signings (2025 Season)

[Roosters rule]

Your only saying that because hes a chooks junior

I am saying that because I have seen a lot of him the past few years.

 

[Black Panther]

Yes he can tackle. He has a good motor too. Wahs seemed to be using him more of a middle forward this year in cup.
He is a solid player that doesn't stuff up. He has a high standard of fitness. Would easily fit into your setup.

His motor was no good for Boxing though.

 

[BossleyPanther]

For?

Substance abuse

Substance abuse

Meh

 

[hindy111]

I would say he is definitely under threat. Recent HIA problems and injuries are taking its toll on his body now. Not getting any younger either.

I prefer Garner. I think Sorrenson is in the top 17 but if one forward is to good to hold out then its probably his spot that is taken.

 

[hindy111]

He is 20 of course he isnt. He is so far ahead of Henry at the same age tho.

Henry to me is just an average worker. He hasn't improved a whole lot but probably 2026 he will start to. I feel 2 full seasons in Nrl before you start to get going as a middle. But he wont ever be a star I doubt. Not a huge loss and will be on overs.

No reason to carry a half on the bench. Stop with this insane shit!

Where probably better off with lussick going forward he can play halves, hooker and in the forwards

Even a straight up hooker with Kenny going into the pack makes more sense.
Cole is the ideal type of 14 but I believe he's just not good enough.

I expect the NRL bench to increase to 6, maybe even before the start of next year.

You can ridicule me as much as you want for this but I still believe the bench should be like the soccer. Have like 10 on the bench and mid game be able to make the call on who you want

I think 10 is too many but with the game now and HIAs I can see up to 8.
The one thing I believe is most important is not have specific head injury subs, that gives teams a place to cheat the system.

Going is ahead of Ale and Crosby

I really don't know much about him, but I'm sure you would know. I do understand he was player of the year though. Does he play multiple positions?

How your right

He plays in the middle mostly but is quite effective on an edge.

Captain of the NSW cup winning side.

He reminds of Erin Clarke a bit. Agressive runner and defender who is a pretty handy ball player as well.

Erin Clarke I wanted her before he went to the Warriors massive breakout year for him

Well if that's the chase then Going should have a spot being that versitile.

I do agree with the others on extending the bench to at least 5

I like Henry tbf, I think he is rock solid player with an awesomne attitude and work ether and could still develop into a much better player than he was im 2025. His best performances this season were a lot better than average, that being said a choice between Henry or Patea for our team right now is no choice at all IMO, Patea all day.

 

[betcats]

Erin Clarke is a good reason for us to be optimistic about guys like Going and Ale despite their age. Clarke was always a first grader but at 27/28 he found the right situation for himself and played like a star. Not saying Ale or Going will become stars but they might go from reserve graders to good first graders.
