Zero chance. Api's one of the best players in his position. Which is one of the most important positions in the team. His next contract will be bigger.
He still lives in Manly in an apartment they bought before he signed with you. No intentions of moving from what I hear. His wife is from the area and any chance he had of them leaving the area has probably gone up in smoke with his recent behaviour. They're also other reasons they probably won't leave the area which I won't get into.
A big money deal with a club closer to home seems very likely imo. Maybe Dogs might have another crack at him again.
I would keep Edwards. He wouldn't be on a huge amount and he is solid. I don't see anything in Staines as fullback. Edwards to keep the spot for a year or two until the next superstar junior is ready... (who is that, BTW?)
Sorensen rewarded for his good form with an extension till 2023 - https://www.nrl.com/news/2021/01/23...cial-rosters-and-contracts-for-all-16-clubs2/

I've seen him in the lower grades and he was all class from Fullback and he has shown glimpses of that in 1st grade. I'd give him a bit more time to mature yet.Laurie and Staines have very similar builds. Laurie 2 years older. I don't see a problem with run metres.
On ball playing I'd disagree. It hasn't been seen much on the wing but he has a great passing game. His acceleration and agility will create plenty of opportunities on the outside.
I think we have bet on the right horse between Laurie/Staines.
Yes agreed, I too have been watching him through lower grades and was always impressed by his ability. I was stoked when he got his break in FG. We need to be patient until he develops because I'm sure there is a star player in there.I've seen him in the lower grades and he was all class from Fullback and he has shown glimpses of that in 1st grade.

And for a bloke who weighs nothing he can stop big guys in their tracks pretty well. His speed allows him to rush up and make the contact before the opposition can get us retreating and asking questions.Staines defence has been very been very impressive. Reads the game well
The issue with the next superstars is the 2 years missed junior development
That will be across the game, not just Penrith.
The cream of the crop tend to rise to the top.The issue with the next superstars is the 2 years missed junior development
What position does he play?The cream of the crop tend to rise to the top.
Haven’t been able to watch too much junior footy this past two disrupted seasons but have to hope there are a handful of kids with NRL potential. John Sagaga has been resigned and there are wraps on him so hopefully he develops over the course of his new two year deal. I haven’t seen a lot of him.
Front RowWhat position does he play?
Is he any good? Thanks.Front Row
There’s plenty of youngsters who excel in the Matt’s, Ball and Flegg And for whatever reason never make it to the NRL.Is he any good? Thanks.

All this is great news for a side as young as oursThey have played 6 months in last 2 years.
Had to put the age groups up. Won't have anymore footy now. Very hard to pick guys for NRL in 2 years as a result

Not ideal, but the best of the best will still rise to the top. May take a little longer, I don’t know, but the best kids will be indoctrinated into the pathways systems in place.They have played 6 months in last 2 years.
