    Talakai needs to return to the forward pack

    Team List Tuesday - Rnd 1 vs Storm

    From memory the Storm didn’t “pass on him” - they granted him a release because he wanted to return to Sydney for family reasons (he was originally from the Sharks’ junior system). Plus with this logic, we should be dismissive of Doorey because the Dogs let him go.

    Team list Tuesday - trial vs Knights - 5.55pm Friday 17th Feb

    Agreed. Won’t be a fun couple of rounds though if we’re missing all of Lane, Doorey and Matto

    Rumoured / Confirmed Signings

    That was mainly Parramatta’s experience with Dykes.

    Rumours and Stuff

    I remember people on this forum saying the same thing about Papali’i when we first signed him. That he was a bog average forward from a bog average Warriors team.

    New recruits for 2023

    He’d still be an upgrade on Sharon

    Rumours and Stuff

    Makes sense. Probably a pre-Christmas announcement for 2024 (I believe he’s allowed to sign from Nov 1 for 2024 season)

    Positives for 2023

    I hope that’s a joke - I’d rather us lock up Bronson Xerri for 2024 than Curtis Scott.

    Positives for 2023

    I don’t disagree, but I’d argue Waqa has had the same deficiencies since he first came to our club. Sure he goes on “hot” streaks, but the same concerns remain (and while he formed a good combo with Opacic, he won’t be here next season). Also we shouldn’t forget that Dunster was showing fine...

    Positives for 2023

    I’d have Sean Russell or Haze Dunster in to replace Blake. I think both have the potential of being quality wingers

    Rumours and Stuff

    Even less reason to have Scott in our squad with the Simonson signing. Curtis is a player that never quite lived up to the hype behind him, even when he was at Melbourne.

    Rumours and Stuff

    I reckon the Simonson signing was in recognition that Sivo will be gone by the end of 2022. I like Bevan, but for better or worse, I'll never forget the image of him costing Wigan that GF (sure it was a mean bounce, but simply did not look like he was acting with enough urgency). Additionally...

    This is true, but in his own mind Fitz is an expert on all fields of Australian history and sport, thus why we have to suffer his out of touch and often bizarre statements when he ventures into the field of League 'journalism'. Hooper is definitely a deserved winner of this honour.

    Rumours and Stuff

    I honestly don’t get the Papali’i hype. Sure he had a breakout season in 2021, but he showed little promise in his previous 4. The reality is that we signed him on a bargain basement contract. There were people on this very forum a year ago that criticised his signing and argued that it was a...

    Yep, wouldn’t be surprised if Roosters still have Verills in their plans. They are loathe to letting anyone of value leaving, particularly in a position that a) is currently in high demand and b) they have particularly been cursed in with injuring over the past few seasons.

    Rumours and Stuff

    Agreed, no different to Will Smith leaving for Gold Coast. Sure seemingly a player that BA liked to keep around and play as a bench utility, but at the end of the day, there's probably better value for money out there in terms of squad composition.

    I reckon Lumelume would be the better fit for our team. Would be a good like-for-like replacement for Sivo, especially if he really is going to jet off to chase $$$

    Ennis has done a good job with Starling. He knows his stuff when it comes to developing hookers

    Rumours and Stuff

    Was reading a Fox Sports article earlier today (probably my first mistake) and whoever wrote it framed it in a way that suggested that our 'premiership window' would be closed unless we signed a first class hooker for next season... I think even the media is confused by the bizarre contract...
