Doesn’t improve the titans at all. Illias would suit a team with a dominant halfback and limited salary for a 5/8, or a team that just wants him for NSW cup
Ilias should pack his bags and head to the UK. Would probably be able to win the Man of Steel award if on the right team. Like Leigh just signed Adam Cook from Canberra to a three year deal.

Why would you willingly listen to Anasta in any format, for any reason, ever?

I tend to listen when he is the source of truth, which was this case. I personally don't like his podcast at all. Maybe if he was interviewing someone current in Rugby League, but he doesn't seem to do that. More about horse racing on his podcast.

Which is in all likelihood he will be playing. QLD Cup. All teams need depth. I don't see him pushing out Campbell from halfback.

What is it about podcasts? Every man and his dog seems to have one. It’s almost impossible to make money out of them unless you’re already famous with a huge pre existing media following. Revenue streams are limited to subscription only content ; ads (which only come on board for those with already massive followings); affiliate links; donations. I assume it’s just an ego thing.

Given so many have one. And they are always pushing betting companies. I'd suggest it's those betting companies and the odd car company keeping them going.

Honestly I don't mind them. They pass time on the bus home and stop me just staring at the phone screen. But I prefer ones like Chimming in, where they interview someone one on one, over the ones that just talk about the games coming up. That said, I don;t mind Kents takes if I am tuning into ones of those.

Kenty has different takes usually. I prefer the look behind the media curtain on how certain stories play out in the media than him breaking down a game which he doesn’t do too often.

NAS > eels

Assuming he got a payout from the storm if he’s on around 350k (my guess) then it’s ok

Wonder if it’s a one year deal for r360 to kick in

Japanese union still favourites for next year

Probably unpopular opinnon but agree

NAS on a lower salary for a year would be worth a shot. If he sucks you dont play him then cut him at the end of the year. Eels did well with JAC, this could turn out ok.

Let's see, he's old and past his use by date. He looks exactly like the kind of forward Shane Flanagan likes to start.

I enjoyed when he got current players in to break down how a game should go and what to look for in the semi's. I can see him doing that segement more often throughout the year. Maybe not week to week.

Absolute waste of money. If you want a penalty magnet and regular practice playing with 12 men then he’s your man.
