I don't expect Pangai Jr to leave Brisbane.
Taupau could go anywhere. He has proven that he doesn't have to go to a top team, so we may still be in the mix.

I reckon Tapau will end up at Roosters. Napa will move and I also heard few rumours Panthers after a big name prop. And I reckon that will be Lodge.

quick glance and Titans, Knights and Roosters

most others, apart from those who signed none, are about equal to our signings

problem is we needed to sign a lot better and we also needed a new coach

we will be bottom four again

Alright, I can agree with Titans and Knight probably.
But Roosters? Crighton's a good signing, but Morris is 130 years old, and Ryan Hall won't even play most of next year.

If the Eels were to sign two wingers, one 31 years old and the other 33 years old you would be throwing a hissy fit.

Watmough signing was fine if for 2yrs. 3 yrs was to long and 4yrs was silly.
Scott was the same. Guy was average at best his finals 2 seasons.
I would sign players idealy under 28ylds. Anyone older then 30 id be reluctant to offer 3yrs deals or longer. Sure we may miss out in a few opportunities but the gamble and risk is high and unless was cheap and needed a chance like say T rex I just wouldn't play that game. The exception perhaps would be if in a premiership window and one class player for 2yrs may get us the title.

It's easy to play that game when you're the Storm or Roosters.
We were languishing at the bottom of the ladder for a decade and needed some quality and experience.
Beggars can't be choosers.

TBF I reckon Hayne will get more than 500k, but if we could jag one of them for that money, it’d be Hayne everyday of the week
Yeah they clearly both want more than 500k

People are dellusional if they think hayne only got 500k this year - 500 from us, 200+ from the tits

Hayne wont get much more then 500k.
He had a nice run of form after world cup but showed in 2018 that he is an injury prone 30yld. He was hardly sensational.

Yep the squad is looking very strong, we are looking pretty.


I can’t see why we aren’t almost the favourites for next season.

I really like our spine. So settled, the halves are a great combination and we have so much depth in the 9 spot. It should be very exciting.

you sound like me back in february

Surely we are on the box seat to sign him.


Peachey confirmed on Wednesday he wants out of the three-year deal reportedly worth $1.5 million and has instructed manager Sam Ayoub to kill the contract.

the GC will force him to sit out his contract and rightly so
That’s what they say, but if you listen to Gus’s podcast a few weeks ago, they wanted Maloney to let Peachey off. So there is a deal there, you just have to find what they want.
