    Round 5 Vs Titans

    I can understand it tbh, a strike weapon on each side should make us more dangerous in theory. Just not working in the moment. I think Jed is too slow to play centre at first grade level. Happy to be proven wrong but.

    Round 5 Vs Titans

    I think Hetherington is in our top 17, definitely needs to kick on though. We have gone ‘all in’ on 5 or 6 players & atm only Kikau is consistently delivering. Cleary is improving, Blake, RCG, Maloney are offering very little. I’m worried about Blake tbh, he’s looking very one dimensional...

    hookers for next year

    $800k v $150k. Also helps when you have the Burgess boys & Tatola rolling forward.

    Round 5 Vs Titans

    Tbh thought momentum changed when we took Katoa off. Lost our shape & structure. To Ivan’s credit he tried to right his wrong by bringing Katoa back quickly but it was too late. One thing I liked about Hook is that he didn’t sub for the sake of subbing which I think happened last night at...

    Round 5 Vs Titans

    They’d look so much stronger with Brimson at the back & Gordon replacing Copley. Also strange how little time Arrow played.

    Round 5 Vs Titans

    Yeh I did forget about those things. He just doesn’t look like a threat with the ball though. Agree, Sele was good again but gets very limited time. I said it earlier today but we seem to really limit some of other forwards time in the hope RCG will eventually come good. Ellis has been the...

    Round 5 Vs Titans

    Nothing wrong with the play (excl. execution), just the timing of it was seriously brain dead. FWIW overall I thought Cleary was terrific. Maloney though, Did he even play? Really not bringing much to the team. Enough said about RCG. Not the end of the world, plenty of teams have played worse...

    News Do you care if Israel Folau returns to the NRL?

    ARU sign a fundamentalist Christian & then sack him for being a fundamentalist Christian...

    Is Cleary a dud?

    Leota's getting 20 - 30 mins a game & is pretty much being used as a pawn to get the best out of RCG. Give Leota a role & I think he'd excel but at the moment he's coming off the bench one week, starting & playing 20 mins the next, just so we can try & motivate RCG to play at half the level he...

    Rumoured and Confirmed signings - Part 4

    Agree but IMO we should of given him that opportunity. Big rangey outside back which I assume would be good under the high ball. Or MWZ who is solid but the same type of outside back as DWZ, Mansour, Whare etc.

    Round 5 Vs Titans

    Yeh I'm worried about this game too tbh, especially if they start Brimson at fullback which surely they will.

    Round 4 V Tigers

    Refs make mistakes, move on.

    Rumoured and Confirmed signings - Part 4

    He always looked a solid player to me, thought he'd eventually get a run in firsts given he's different to our other outside backs in size & build. Maybe I only watched his good games.

    Edwards or DWZ for fullback next year

    Yeh I’d like to see Aekins get a crack too. At the same time though, I wouldn’t mind seeing Edwards on a dry track v Titans. One good game could turn his season around & IMO a firing Edwards really helps our balance as a side.

    hookers for next year

    I’d stick with Katoa. Kid was good last night just an easy target. At the moment (& it might change), he’s well ahead of Egan in quality.

    Round 4 V Tigers

    I think we need to be realistic though, he’s likely one of the lowest paid first grade hookers in the game, who hasn’t played a full season at 9 & played a lot of ressies in the back row, yet people are judging him as if he should be Cam Smith. Our forwards are literally running one off the...

    Round 4 V Tigers

    If you base a hookers performance purely on his run metres, Nafe Seluini would be the Panthers GOAT. He played well, seems to be an easy scapegoat.

    Round 4 V Tigers

    Can only think it must be for defence purposes, Maybe to help Kikau?

    Round 4 V Tigers

    I thought Kikau knocked it on at the 10m line tbh. f**k, I thought Katoa played well tonight, not sure why he’s getting hammered tbh. Imo proved he’s well ahead of Egan at this point. Easy to say after the last 5 mins, but I actually thought Cleary had a much better game then previous. Much...

    Is Cleary a dud?

    JFH played really well the first 10 rounds, then plodded the rest of the year.
