    Injuries Update

    I guess it was Luki we didn't get to sign...him! I'll see myself out ☺️

    Kyle Flanagan

    Imo, the extension is designed for KF to transition into the hooking role full time (or shared 9/14). Cook has only a few years left, and liddle isn't a full game hooker. Young Hjaltason is also few years away from full time first grade, if he even gets there. There's also the introduction of...

    2025 Squad List

    I have a feeling his end-of-season review wasn't very complimentary, as far as his football prowess in '24. Being a good clubman is far removed from being a good footballer, in fact if he wanted just to be a good clubman then he should retire and take on an ambassador role. So, the ball is in...

    Flanno's New Signings

    Maybe Lodge rolled the dice and put all his eggs into signing with the Bunnies. Now we may be in a position of power, where we can renegotiate at a lower price. Take it or leave it scenario.

    Hame Sele

    Not sure. Does risk override reason? Wouldn't surprise me if they did a Corey Allen with him, give him a year to absolutely 100% recover, with a promise of re-signing if he has to the satisfaction of everyone. It would be a complete disaster if something wasn't right and, worse case scenario...

    Flanno's New Signings

    Agree with your 2nd paragraph re: Flanos current contract and extension of same. Imo, no decision will be made on an extension (even if there is one to be made) until the new CEO is appointed, puts their feet under the desk, and even then a review of circumstances, processes and performance...

    Flanno's New Signings

    Once Atkinson is confirmed 100%, we will see a definite pathway transition of players. I would imagine from '26: Atkinson and Ilias as our halves pairing Cook and Liddle in as our 9/14. With Cook spending time at lock during the game. I would assume this would be Cookie's last year as he would...

    2025 Squad List

    Lawson, the RU recruit, will probably take that last supp spot, leaving the door open for an after NY signing, or alternatively, allowing promotion from either the t&t or supp list. I'm certain there's someone on the radar, just who remains the mystery.

    Flanno's New Signings

    I believe spot #30 will be reserved for one of our young forwards, and Halangau fits the bill.

    Flanno's New Signings

    There's an interesting comparison between Hunt/Flanagan (2024) and Walker/Ilias (2023). Both KFlan and Ilias will benefit from not having such dominating halves partners. I have a good feeling about this.

    2025 Squad List

    Mmm. I find it more interesting that in the Jammer interview, he mentioned the draw for '25 was out, so when was that, Thursday? Ilias confirms on Monday, well before Christmas. Which means it was advanced and to the point of being registered by the NRL. Maybe I'm reading too much into it, or...

    2025 Squad List

    I hear what you're saying and agree a "big middle" is a priority, however, which "big middle'? It's approaching the end of November, at this stage only Lodge is the current available and he appears to favour a return to be coached by Bennett. Are we really waiting for Hunt to decide, and see...

    2025 Squad List

    Question for those up-to'-speed with our wider squad. Who would partner LKT in the halves in reserve grade?

    Flanno's New Signings

    People still negative on signing Ilias. DA isn't available and AD is a risk. Well, there's a guy named ben Hunt who is still without a club for '25, maybe we should ................. (pink text)

    2025 Squad List

    I found it interesting that AD completed a medical with us as well. He's still contracted for '25 (as is Ilias), but there's no chatter on whether the Tigers are willing to chip in or not. My guess is that there seems to be no forwards on the market that would suit our objective at present...

    2025 Squad List

    Let's assume for a minute that we gave 28 signed players. As you state, Flanno would like to keep #30 open, yet we need a half and a prop. I'm guessing, the squad numbers are reliant on what type of contract Eisenhuth has signed. If not a top 30 then it makes sense to hold off on spot #30. So...

    The Rumours Thread

    Oh agree 100%, but so was Liddle, and Ilias has just returned from a broken leg, no guarantee, it has knitted successfully to withstand, not only a season, but multiple seasons. You could also argue TT has had a couple of torn hammies, and shoulder issues (and in no universe am I comparing...

    IMO, Douehi is by far the better option. He has more versatility and mental strength that Ilias. Obviously, the key is Atkinson, which seemingly the Sharks aren't keen to let him walk, either for '25 or onwards. So, where would that leave us?

    For those that haven't seen it there's a shorts video from the Facebook crew called "The Climb". Awesome stuff. Also, if someone could copy the link, that would be great.
