Rumoured Targets 3

[mozza91]

Old mate back to lose more arguments with his cherry picked ‘stats’.

 

[Yosh]

Maybe Pryce has a breakout season in 2025 and we manage to get a good seven, we might be a top 6 side. Still think we need a top top middle (our three starting middles are okay but none are top class) and a proper hooker to be in the conversation for top 4.

 

[Lynoman]

So the salary cap literally doesn't apply to Sydney clubs anymore? Tigers sign 50 players and yet still have cap room for a new high priced recruit and the Bulldogs keep signing players despite signing 100 players last season. And don't give me this "playing for less money" shit. Players don't move to one of the most expensive cities to live in Australia, for less money. "Premiership opportunities" don't pay for million dollar suburban houses and higher priced lving costs.

Are you being sexist or stupid?

This is a - Knights - NRL -thread - you ignorant or stupid? It’s rhetorical.

If I’d asked what’s Harold Mathews Cup? would you propose I have a phobia of kids? What’s Hurling? – I’m bigoted towards the Irish?

If you want to posture or pontificate on morality to give yourself that warm fuzzy feeling of being a decent human find another thread champ - or go to the bathroom mirror with a bottle of lube and sing kumbaya.

Own clothing or textiles made in Asia? a cell phone? consume animal products? or does your hair-trigger self-righteous morality have parameters? You sanctimonious prat.

You really take yourself quite seriously, don't you.

This is a rumoured targets thread. Tell me where the title mentions NRL. I created the thread you moron, and I made no such stipulation.

The offseason is kicking in...

Oh god yeah.
Seriously though 2025 is Mullen’s breakout year.

I was going to say Adam Elliot, but Mullo 2025 sounds good to me.

 

[slotmachine]

Nah, this is the year the Dan Saifiti starts having a go.

I think the main thing here is that someone made a point about the NRLW team being successful and that also contributes to being a “KPI” for the club in a sense.

Looking at it holistically the club is doing some good things. I suppose a lot of your posts on here seem to deride the club as being a really poorly run organisation, but the NRLW team has been really successful over the last few years and should be used as some evidence that the club is doing some things well.

Making a comment like “what’s the NRLW” obviously rubs people the wrong way because it basically de-values the NRLW as a product and a measure of success when it should be hailed as a pretty groundbreaking sporting competition in many ways.

Dr Dr kicking own goals again I see

Just to briefly go back to the point about a lack of talk around signings for us, we traditionally actually *are* one of those clubs that don't have a lot of reliable leaks. A lot of our signings in recent years have been announced without much fanfare beforehand.

That being said, I doubt there's much interesting in the pipeline right now anyway. Apart from Leo re-signing (or not) our squad is basically set.

 

[Yosh]

Apparently the Roosters are trying to sign Reece Robson. I hope we make a play at him. He screams old school Knights.

He won't leave NQ. That side is incredible. They just under perform.

 

[Mr_Knightside]

Robson would be the ideal target for us imo. So dangerous around the ruck when there’s a quick PTB. Absolutely tough as nails too.

 

[PhilGould]

His older brother came through our juniors in the mid 2010s, shame they didn't get Reece at the same time. Can't see the Knights looking to spend big on a hooker at the moment though, even if/when Brailey goes.

Hope we do because it's a spine position.

Ponga
Pryce
Pezet
Robson
Crossland

That's a top 4 spine.

 

[PhilGould]

As hard as it is to argue against that obvious top 4 spine featuring 2 unproven halves (one who doesn't play for the Knights, one who might not either in 2026 unless he significantly improves), having the incumbent NZ hooker on your bench and u/19 Blues hooker behind him in reserve grade illustrates why I don't think hooker is the area of the spine they'll be looking to throw big money at.
