it will be hard to watch next year if he keeps playing the way he is!!!! Whats the deal with toopoo havent heard anything him!

 

[Card Shark]

He's only come good since signing.

Obviously it was weighing on his mind.

 

[THE MESSIAH !!!]

Is funny players go to warriors and just dont perform

 

[blacktip-reefy]

Still time to renege.

 

[Window Licker]

the money must be pretty good from the warriors....... dont think we can afford to lose both boogs and toopoo.

 

[Card Shark]

Still time to renege.

Correct. Considering how well we / he are now going & how bad the Warriors are going, he may do that.

I know some want to keep Toups but I'd use his money for Bukuya (if possible) & Peachey. We can't have em all. Important to keep the young guys I reckon.

 

[RUBIKS]

He's only come good since signing.

Obviously it was weighing on his mind.

Yeah that.... oorrr, the fact that he was only getting 15mins out of position?

Against the Warriors (injury to Loots) and all the games since Gals injury he's been fantastic.

Should have never considered letting him go.

 

[SharkShocked]

Can't keep everyone.

Back row candidates

Gallen, Graham, Lewis, Heighno, Toops, Bukuya, Peachey, Sopoga

Am I missing anyone?

When Lewis and Gallen are back, his minutes will drop again.

Whilst losing him is unfortunate I can't see his loss being completely irreplaceable.

 

[blacktip-reefy]

both Toops & Bukes are must keeps.
The difference between PEach & Bukes last was massive.
Bukes troubled them all night & Peach was easily contained & slow play the balls.

Still time to renege.

Definitely - R13 is the deadline from memory - let's do a Papalii on the Warriors !

With no distractions, Boogs has been enormous the past couple of weeks.

Gallen, Graham, Lewis, Heighno, Toops, Bukuya, Peachey, Sopoga

I'd be gradually dropping Heighno out of that rotation when Gal plays.

Yes he's signed for 3 years, but he plays too similar a game to Gal. The others on the bench all offer something different. Heigno can fill in when we are down on troops.

 

[SharkShocked]

Can't see a renege as at all possible..

We are the nice guys remember.

 

[Frenzy.]

It's not up to "us" to renege anyway. He's off contract. A free agent. He can renege but all we can do to make him is match the Warriors offer whatever it is. Can't see it happening

 

[blacktip-reefy]

no. Shame though. Hes a shark. We made him & hes good. Very good.

 

[wobbegong]

Bukes should be playing centre - instead of Wright of course.

 

[blacktip-reefy]

first the Frizz now Bukes. Thats pharked.

 

[bluefox1968]

Give Peachey time! It has taken players like Wade Graham and Bukuya a lot of NRL games to develop into the class players that they have become.

Peachey will get better. The Soughs game was a slug-fest in wet conditions...

 

[Special K]

Wade is the same age as Peach and has been in the NRL since 2008 and is a stand in captain vs a bloke who hasn't played 80 minutes of NRL. That should tell you the class difference between the two. Please can people stop comparing the two.

Not dissing Peach but Wade is a next level talent.

 

[Madsharkie]

I think it's just peach's x-factor that has everyone excited K. Well that's what it is for me anyways.
