    2026 rumoured and confirmed signings

    Wow you really have less idea then I thought. 14 gets 0 mins - That isn't a case of me not agreeing with the use of 14. There is no use to discuss. Are you really this slow? When Sorro was ruled out. The bench was Schneider Henry Papalli We effectively had a 2 man bench rotation for 78 mins

    2026 rumoured and confirmed signings

    We had Papalli on the bench. He can play 2nd row, Schneider played some lock and hooker as the year went on. 20mins of him at hooker. Papalli on the edge Let's Garner have a break and he can finish the game. We can all debate who we should have picked 14 but once Ivan picked Schneider, He...

    Money does nothing. They should weaken the Storm player wise to get Lomax

    No team has ever won the premiership after conceding 50pts in a regular season match

    Teams are at different stages across the pre season

    We don't know that but I don't see how Storm, Broncos, Souths and any of the other big clubs you want to throw in. Play 4 less games and the TV pays 50% more. FTA won't have any interest in PNG v most sides. So give them that or a 2nd NQ v Broncos game, option 2 will always win. We are on...

    2026 rumoured and confirmed signings

    Well yes I know you have no idea. In 2024 he averaged 55 mins In 2025 it was 48 mins. Sorro lasted 2 mins. We needed to find 78 mins. Having a 14 to play 15-20 from that and the result is likely different

    2026 rumoured and confirmed signings

    You either like to troll or have no NRL IQ Sorro was ruled out from the bunker doctor. He passed the on field stuff 2023. He is able to come back on, So we would go into the 2nd half with Garner on the bench to insert at some stage We also had a different make up of the side. In 2022 GF...

    How many times has Garner played 80 mins across the last few years? So we were running low on gas and not using the full 17 players isn't part of the result?

    2026 rumoured and confirmed signings

    Especially in this comp. It is set up to be even, they want a parity league. You can't stack a side or anything so to leave out that is a disadvantage

    Because it isn't as simple as 1 + 2 = 3 PVL has said a lot stuff over time. The makeup of the season FTA exclusive games. Length of the season All go into it

    So the game is the same in 2026 as it was in 2020?

    It is the one part that can be controlled. We have no say over how quickly Blaize develops for example How we use the bench can be fixed

    2026 rumoured and confirmed signings

    It is a different season if we don't have the fade outs. Cowboys X 2 Storm Canberra turn into wins We faded out v GC still won We get those results and we don't rest everyone v Dogs We finish 3rd and aren't up against it like we were. We were the fittest team over the last 5 years, So we...

    Manly lost a trial 56-10. Won the comp the same year

    2026 rumoured and confirmed signings

    Yep. Yeo is getting older so maybe we limit his minutes, running a bench hooker to play Kenny in 13 works. Outside of that, there is no point to not having 4 forwards in the game

    Games that are Ad free during play though? AFL with Quarters. Only Pay TV knows what the breakdown is for the subscription based. They aren't going to throw money away, So there must be some value in it. TV doesn't not setting the schedule will limit FTA raise. On the flipside expanded NRLW...

    Again more content for AFL deals. That aside. Sounds like they won't be selling different nights to different streamers. That is a good thing. Also would go with not reducing the games played as previously discussed

    Week 1 Trial v Cows

    There were 11 NRL games, You take out Falls, McLean and the starting pack and you have very few NSW Cups too. So it was probably seen as a way to test them and they use that to go back to NSW Cup and not be daunted by the jump up in class

    Week 1 Trial v Cows

    Billy Scott is a Kenny version who kicks. That is more Ivan's style

    Week 1 Trial v Cows

    What will hurt them is Vegas, They don't travel well. So I see them struggling early. Then Origin mean they lose a few guys and any team except for Tigers and Knights are capable of making the 8
