    Is 2023 the year?

    Exactly ... Trindall's had enough chances, he cannot execute under pressure, his decision making is poor ... cut him loose

    Is 2023 the year?

    Bump .... Leniu was excellent for the Riff tonight, great impact off the bench. Forget paying overs for Klemmer, Tapau etc ... let's go after Leniu !!

    Is 2023 the year?

    I agree with a lot of the takes on here. We overachieved to finish in 2nd spot, but unfortunately we didn't have the extra gears and composure when the finals pressure was on. I felt sorry for Fitz after the Souths game, he was shattered in that press conference. He was such a whole-hearted...

    Game Day: First Semi vs Cows

    Yep I'm still filthy about that call - utter BS. He doesn't play it on the mark, he puts the ball behind the marker - lost ball. And its gets basically zero mention in commentary or match reports. Just watch our semi get decided by something similar - the number of players either walking...

    Semi Finals 2022

    Me too - Ticketek's website queueing has been diabolical today !! What a shambles, how hard is it to implement a true FIFO queue with load balancing ... when that's your core business ? I've never had an issue with Ticketmaster for high demand events - but Ticketek is getting worse by the...

    Things that worry me for the finals

    We've done really well coping with the injuries we've had over the back half of the regular season - but there are a few areas that really worry me looking ahead to the finals: 1) Our kicking game - our long kicking game sucks, our short kicking game/repeat sets have gone backwards - the only...

    GAME DAY vs Western Sydney Balmain Magpie Tigers

    Ordinary second half, we took the foot off the pedal again. But with the players we have injured, we are doing OK. I wish Nicho would square up & start playing straighter more often - this run sideways, then prop & cut back the other way stuff disrupts our flow, and leaves the outside runners...

    Rumoured / Confirmed Signings

    I hope it's not Ofahengaue ? He is on big dollars, 600k from memory. Worth nowhere near that.

    Rumoured / Confirmed Signings

    Fifita 194 cm Hunt 192 cm BHU 191 cm Toby 190 cm Dale 188 cm Kaufusi 188cm - for a front rower these days that is NOT tall, compared to some of the monsters others sides have. Hence my point that we should definitely retain Hunt with Fifita likely retiring, otherwise our pack will be too...

    Rumoured / Confirmed Signings

    I hope not - I can't believe we wouldn't sign Royce for another 2 years !? Our pack is small as it is - next year the only big bodies will be BHU & Hunt at this stage. Of the middles Kaufusi is solid/nuggety but not super tall, same as Williams. Toby is all effort but not massive. Dale &...

    Will Kennedy gone

    Nicho has to stay at 7, and learn to have some patience & build pressure in the leadup to the finals. I know Fitzy tells him to play what he sees, but he runs around like a chook with his head cut off at times. I'm OK with Miller or Dykes, but both will have weaknesses in defence.

    Finucane suspension

    Our defence should be pretty straightforward: Did Finucane contact the head with his shoulder or arm - No. Did Finucane lead with his head, intentionally or accidentally - No. It was an accidental head clash in a strong tackle. If they are going to start suspending accidental head clashes...

    Game Day v Penrifff

    We showed that the Panthers are not unbeatable in a finals game. Yes we really only put them under pressure for the first 20-25 mins, but we can build on that experience - Fitzy will keep hammering resilience into us. We have a lot of improvement still left in us, we are nowhere near the...

    Official Team List: Vs Raider

    Harris Tevita would be a great pickup - he's got some football in him, can kick OK, and is a solid defender. Under Fitzy's coaching he would kill it. Even if Moyser signs for 2 more years, CHT would be worth it - particularly when the jury is still out on Trindall.

    Game Day- Sharks vs Sea Eagle. Steve Rogers Trophy

    Like everyone I am happy to get the win in the end given our atrocious record against these pricks. And overall I am super happy about our progress under Fitzy, I never thought we would develop this quickly (and we still have a long way to go, but there's some great progress). But a few things...

    Rumoured / Confirmed Signings

    Centre wise, we can't have Tracey as a starting centre next year - he is the 14, or nothing. I'd be enquiring about Tevita Funa - perfect build for a centre, fast, tall, atheletic, can fill in at FB or wing if required. He seems to have fallen begin Morgan Harper & Saab in the pecking order at...

    Rumoured / Confirmed Signings

    Agree, Fotuaika around 600-650k would be an outstanding get - he is young, only going to get better, good footwork for a big unit. If he's considering offers after 1 Nov, I hope we get in the queue in front of the Stains ! Thompson is strong, but overpriced, even if the Dogs pay some freight...

    Chambers

    Sledging aside ... Chambers has been poor for the majority of his games. No longer up to speed defensively, no threat at all in attack. I don't care how good his mentoring of young players off the field has been ... on the field, he's a liability. Cut him loose Fitzy !

    Rumoured / Confirmed Signings

    That's true - even allowing for his inexperience, Trindall's decision making has been pretty poor. Taylor's problem is his temperament under pressure - he needed to take those months out of the game a while back, plus his body language is poor when he gets frustrated, he drops his head too...

    Game Day - Dog Day Afternoon

    How does Wilton get dropped for Fifita ? He's been one of our best over the past couple of months.
