    Harsh on the nuffs tbh. I'd take Egan Butcher in a heartbeat.

    Why don't we ever "raid" Union?

    If people are already worried about him being a ‘billboard’ for the ARU over the next 18 months, doesn’t that prove the ARU have made the right move securing him for that money? Even without setting foot on the field he’s caused a stir and some exposure. I also don’t get the 3rd best fullback...

    Why don't we ever "raid" Union?

    How is that relevant? I'm not arguing that they paid peanuts for Suaalii but I think it's an investment which will pay dividends. I'd argue Suaalii is of more value to RU than both Tedesco and Cleary because he has a history and a desire to play RU. He shouldn't take long to 'acclimatize' and...

    Why don't we ever "raid" Union?

    Because he hasn't played Origin he's unproven? Let's not act like he's a run-of-the-mill outside back, he's the best young player in the game and has a history in RU already. If paying $1.6m is going to send the RA broke, their bread is already buttered so may as well throw a hail mary or two.

    Why don't we ever "raid" Union?

    f**k I find it cringey the way Gus and co. go on about Union. So insecure. He's the best young talent in the game, I think it's a smart decision from RU. Definitely going to bring them some profile, good luck to him and them.

    Round 5 v Canberra

    Cogger will be next up based on trials.

    Round 4 vs the eels

    Think the criticism of Garner is way over cooked. Did nothing wrong Thurs night and then went down injured. Game v Rabbits he was arguably one of our best. If Luai doesn’t trust him, that’s on Luai. Basic stuff but Luai is so sideways at the moment that he squeezes our left edge and really has...

    Martins been trash this year so far but.

    Round 4 vs the eels

    I don’t think we're in as much trouble as some make out. Still very early days. Our attack is bang average but that has been the case for the last couple of years. We could easily be 3 - 0 (same as Parra tbh). Outside of the Broncs, I haven't seen any other teams improve enough to really worry me.

    Round 4 vs the eels

    Only one man can save us. Return of the King.

    Round 4 vs the eels

    You’ve got to expect more from your origin halves. Controlled field position in that second half and neither fired a shot until the last 5 minutes.

    Round 4 vs the eels

    Not sure why people are so critical of Garner and/or Hoskings, unless we’re paying Cleary $1.3m to take the wrong option more times then not, he should be the one in the firing line. Edit: this aged well.

    Cheers Fangs. Now they're odds on to pump us next week.

    Round 4 vs the eels

    Think they win on Thursday night and they always seem to give us a bit of a shake up so hardly a gimme for us... except for GF.

    Round 4 vs the eels

    Given the Eels run in rounds 5 to 10, they can easily go from 0 - 5 to 5 - 5 pretty easily. Still think Parra will be there or thereabouts.

    f**k me, didn’t know the 2 were mutually exclusive???

    Round 2 v Wabbits

    Dropped the ball a couple of times, other times they stick. The fact he got himself in those positions, most of the time from solely his own doing, is a great sign. That try saver from Mitchell as well was world class.

    Round 2 v Wabbits

    Souths were very light in the middle last night. We got time and space out wide because our forwards trampled them. Bring back Tatola, Arrow and even Sele and I think they're a different proposition.

    Round 2 v Wabbits

    El Salmondo has genuinely impressed me thus far this season. Has added some size and was a real handful last night. Think he can definitely do a job on an edge if required. Great to see Garner have a good game last night also. Ran hard from the 1st minute and ran some smart lines.
