2026 rumoured and confirmed signings

[Luke Bowden]

Garner is a ripper! I was just worried we wouldn’t spend the money to keep him.

 

[age.s]

I think Garner (specifically in the context of replacing Kikau) was the point at which I realised we weren't just a regular club having a good couple of years.

Swapping Alamoti (a Bulldogs reject) for Crichton and having him perform incredibly in a grand final was another.

Sorro and Garner have been amazing benchies.

Sorro was amazing as an impact prop with late footwork and his ability to defend as a second rower if needed really doubled his value on the bench.

I thought Salmon and May were also excellent bench players.

No he’s not. He can’t pass from the ground and struggles to pass both ways.

Sorenson starting to get a few HIAs lately ,with henry coming back soon Sorenson could be the odd man out.

Sorro has had a few over the lat 3 - 4? years.

He wasn’t concussed last night

Obviously Sorro has been a great servant for us over our run and love the bloke, but he is getting on. Still in great shape but is losing a step. It wouldn’t surprise me if both Henry and Phillips jump him in the pecking order by the end of the year, but he takes up number 18 or 19 on the large bench; I can see Ivan using him in a big game if there is an early injury as he can be trusted.

Anyone know what ever happened to pou papali'i. He was meant to be part of the top 30 this year and seems to have disappeared from the juniors

Yeah boy. Love having him.

 

[Wetcats]

Thats great. I have a conspiracy theory. Noticed recently Paps and Henry seem to be tight, doing lots of family stuff together. Paps off contract next year, i wonder if he might be taking a big perth offer.
