2025 Squad List

[baggygreen man]

Yes, every year they say in 2 years we will have a huge war chest to make big moves in recruitment.

I read we had a $4.5m war chest to spend on next season. Whether we do or not we sure as hell have nothing in the way of quality to spend it on. One knock back after the other.

The spending for 2025 started already

ie they take off who was leaving
Then who is not contracted for 2025
Then that war chest looks big every time lol


JDB
Cook
Sloan
Sele

No 6 needed our attack useless flanno and Hunt not the answer.
We need a marquee no 6 for 2025

I'm sure he'll tell us about one in his dribbles on the rumours thread.

Is this our best guess for our 6 x 2025 Supp Players

NickT

Ackers

Buchanan

Williams

Halangahu

king togia

an obvious players that should be on a TT or the supp list is Ryan Hutchinson and Daniel Meafou who believe it or not is still only 17yrs old (18yrs old in October). Daniel captained the Illawarra SG Ball team this season and was player of the year - sadly did his ACL last couple of games.

In the games I watched in SG Ball I felt that Hutchinson jumped ahead of Ackers by quite a way. Hutchison could be a year older? And Ackers did not seem as fit / injured a bit maybe ?

o Ackers has been injured all year though so I dont think we could judge him yet.. he must have something to have gotten the development deal for 2024.. but I think he has strong competition now... so he needs to be switched on.

o Meafou also injured, and being a year younger this has sort of given us some breathing space on his contract, we can get a look at him next year.. I expect that Steelers side to be a lot more competitive with Reed/Fitzgibbon, Meafou, maybe those other forwards like Amones, Treweek.. not sure if Buchanan plays.. and not sure on Kirk and Borg.. but pretty sure most of those kids played a year young this year...

o Hutchinson im not sure how old he is.. I liked him also.. but didnt seem to demand Flegg selection.. not sure how old he is.. if hes young then sweet, we get to watch him next year.

o Tom Kirk is the other one who re-signed last week and may well push Williams yet

o Mason Phillips another one to watch, Weatherill im not sure if hes HM or SG he just extended.. Random mentioned Futialo as a prop to watch.. im sure there are so many we dont even know about.. pretty exciting stuff!

but no idea who the final 6 dev spots will be, im not sure if they would announce them all at the end of the Flegg season or wait for pre-season, I've seen some assumed names, but I dunno if that stuff is locked in yet.
