    Ponga Appreciation Thread.

    I don’t care about him playing for Australia. Or Queensland for that matter. I want a premiership. Appears he wants that too.

    Rumoured Targets 3

    I have some hope we get Pezet. Is he going to want to be a halves understudy for the next 5 or 6 years to Munster and Hughes?

    Match Discussion: Finals Week 1 vs North Qld @ Queensland Country Bank Stadium, Townsville / Wulgurukaba

    The really frustrating thing is it would be dead easy to get him TPA’s right now - high quality sponsors who would want to throw money at KP. Just not at any of the others. He needs to buy into the restructure.

    Those players have TPA’s that form part of the salary. KP’s doesn’t. Disagree all you want. The point remains.

    Match Discussion: Finals Week 1 vs North Qld @ Queensland Country Bank Stadium, Townsville / Wulgurukaba

    I get why they did it - TPA’s are bullshit and he’s been burnt by one already, so it makes sense to have it all guaranteed. He also has to realise that means there is less for everyone else - and to put the right pieces around him as a result. My hope would be is if the right players could be...

    Match Discussion: Finals Week 1 vs North Qld @ Queensland Country Bank Stadium, Townsville / Wulgurukaba

    In a way he has done it to himself as well though. Insisting his extremely large salary is all in the cap puts the club to a disadvantage, means we have less calibre around him and means he has to do more of the work. Rework the contract, take some third party money and get some better players...

    Match Discussion: Finals Week 1 vs North Qld @ Queensland Country Bank Stadium, Townsville / Wulgurukaba

    We were so close… It was a brave effort, however in the end we just don’t have enough great players around Ponga to be a genuine threat. Hopefully we clear the players we need to, put some genuine class players around the core that we have and the future can look really good.

    Sack Adam O'Brien

    There is zero chance this is happening… However what options are out there? And don’t say Maguire after he won an Origin with a squad no club could ever get and players only having to be around him for 3 games. He isn’t a good club coach across a season - the Tigers experience shows that...

    Match Discussion: Finals Week 1 vs North Qld @ Queensland Country Bank Stadium, Townsville / Wulgurukaba

    We lost in golden point up there earlier in the year right? We are a massive chance. Hopefully people keep writing us off. Hopefully the Cowboys think they will coast though.

    We are good, but not Panthers good. Calm down now.

    Match Discussion: Round 27 vs Dolphins @ McDonald Jones Stadium, New Lambton / Awabakal

    It wasn’t bait. I just don’t know if we’ve ever done it to be honest. Perhaps not even during the Joey era… Forget that - we made it consecutively from 1997 to 2003. It certainly has to be our most successful stretch outside of that - as sad as it is. We have the base of a pretty good squad...

    Match Discussion: Round 27 vs Dolphins @ McDonald Jones Stadium, New Lambton / Awabakal

    It was always in us. It says a damn lot about the boys resilience. Injuries, the start of a major restructure where some of them won’t be here in the future - they knuckled down and got it done. Good on them.

    Match Discussion: Round 27 vs Dolphins @ McDonald Jones Stadium, New Lambton / Awabakal

    Genuine question - no AOB bait. When is the last time we’ve been in the finals 4 out of 5 years?

    Clever by Elliott. Couldn’t be anything other than a strip penalty.

    Righto. Let’s not blow it now. Stay focussed!
