Round 5 vs Bulldogs

[Iamback]

It would have cost us players to keep him.

He was also chasing a 4 year deal.

It’s short sighted to say we f$&ked up.

We offered him $600k

Kikau $700k

So the money was there to keep him but we want to be a tight arse

 

[Iamback]

Care to explain how? He wanted 700k over 4years.
That means we probably lose Tago or May

I am fine with losing wingers. Them and middles are the easiest to replace

Taylan May has to keep his spot. This is an impressive backline.
Tago is more effective then Burton at centre. Burton was magic but Tago every carry is strong.
Edwards currently is the form fullback in the comp. Playing best he ever has.
Staines is playing well. He is NRL quality but May looks like he could challenge To'o as to who is better.

Depends on the winger and middle. You are right tho. There isn't many high quality edge forwards and 9s....
Korisau is a hard one cause he can produce mom performances or constantly be in your top 3 players. But at a poor club how will he be?

The best hookers in the game play at the best clubs currently but it does also make you wonder is being at the best clubs helping making them the best hookers?

I'd love to see Egan in your side now for example

You go back 10 years across Premiers and runners up. You never see 2 highly paid wingers
Props you get 1 good one but also a couple of cheap guys

We are tight asses. There is no way we buy anyone our best bet is Soni Luke develops quickly

Yes and why I suggested May and Staines might be a smart move and let Too go earn the big dollars elsewhere.

Dally M Points
Edwards 3, Eisenhuth 2, Tago 1.

May can player hooker next year. we just have to fit this guy in. Tago 1 more season in centre and he can replace Kikau 2024. Bring in my man Turuva.

 

[Fangs]

Didn't really watch. Looked boring on paper. Highlights were alright. Edwards try was a special one.

Broncos might be a test I think.

 

[martielang]

There was an effective tackle with Huth, Salmon and Kenny all involved.

I was in plod heaven.

 

[BossleyPanther]

Huth does really good and should keep his spot in the 17. Minimum wages and better than some FR at other clubs.

Not the plod try?

Huth to Kenny

I couldn't believe they said it was his first NRL try.

I can. He ran more metres for that then he has in his NRL career in total

Huth has been great this year IMO. He's not flashy, but gets through his work, and is solid in D.

He has his limitations, eg. he has zero impact off the bench, and he should never play 13.
But when Leota is fit, I'd have no issues if Huth kept his starting spot for a few weeks, and bring Leota off the bench to get back up to speed.

Yeah he starts or is out of the 17

Too flashy for my liking.

Just like Yeo was when he started...
