I’d give my left nut for Kikau he’s gone to a whole new level this season.

 

[Forbes Creek Dragons]

I hope we dont sign McGuire tbh...I would find it very difficult cheering for that bloke in the red v.........to grubby for mine

I think he would quickly become a fan favourite personally but I don’t want him costing us a player we need.

I’m from Forbes Creek so it’s all good I still have my middle and right nut left.

Billy Burns is a really good player, the whole handling issues thing is overstated IMO. It’s just symptomatic of a youngster when he gets an NRL opportunity just trying to hard to impress. Long term/short term has much more upside than Tyrell Fuimaono and off the bench better than Trent Merrin whose days are numbered. Great pick up for you guys. (I rate Merrin his first season with us he was brilliant, great player, great person to have around a club but I would expect Billy to take his bench spot, younger, fitter, faster and has some really good attributes).

All young blokes have handling errors, a big part of it is combinations and confidence. If he were to play week in week out and build some combos it would improve.

Had one bad game last year, and as Dylan Edwards will tell you, it takes an awful lot of good games to even up the ledger for one bad one in the court of public opinion. He was in the 21 this week, I think its just a case of we are one front rower short and one second rower over.

Edwards is rock solid, he gets a bad rap because he's not a Pap or Teddy but that game he got injured in he was killing it. He is all you need at the back.

He had a shaky patch in '19 after coming back from a shoulder recon and it seems to have haunted him. He's better off the ball than either of them.

Dylan is a really solid fullback, but sadly he’ll never get the wraps he deserves from our followers in our forum in LU. I do think however he is much more appreciated across the wider supporter base who don’t necessarily come on here.

What do you think of Fui's current form, I'm impressed.

My missus is a Penrith supporter so I pretty much watch all their games. I rate him, if Duftman could just get up to his level in actual fullback play I would be over the moon. No need to aim at Tedesco levels, just a good serviceable fullback would do me. I have high hopes he can get there.

Fui has done really well, really happy for him.

We should be giving Blacker a chance in first grade not letting him go. Poasa has been a mixed bag so far, plays ok one week then pretty average the next so giving Blacker a shot at his bench spot might be worth trying. If Penrith are after him then they must see some future value there.We need big guys.

Blacker is no where near 1st grade ready or has done anything yet to warrant a call up over who is there thus far. He wont make Penrith 1st grade side for some time either if he goes.

The Warriors and Broncos aren’t the only club currently in player trade talks with grand finalists the Penrith Panthers and St George Illawarra negotiating a swap between rookie NRL forwards Billy Burns and Eddie Blacker.

Burns is a backrower who is currently sitting behind Viliame Kikau, Kurt Capewell and Liam Martin at Penrith while Blacker is a rookie front-rower who has been pressing for NRL selection this season.

Both clubs are expected to announce the swap in the next 24 hours.
