No battle you moron.

Some people can see what is holding the team back from a premiership and admit that there need to be changes, because we are never winning a comp with this coach.

Others just like to argue for the sake of argument.

And you, well you are just an idiot who loves to think he's different to the "plebs".

The true comedy is you describing someone else as "woke".
Clutch play, moron. Too easy.

Joe Off was let go by Brisbane because he was just a reserve grade standard player. No better than the hacks we have now plodding their way down there. Tigers bought him for a lot of $$$$ and they soon realised he was terrible.

WHY do we continue to purchase these type of players ?

Davey
Momisea
Murchie
Ofahengaue is much better than those three. He has played Origin ffs.

Plenty of questions here with this signing

Has RCG had a hiccup with his rehab.

This has come out of nowhere and been sorted in 24 hours once it became public.

Who has rolled over here Tigers or Parra to have the deal sorted this quickly when it comes to freight for next 2 years.

Think it’s a great pickup. Walks into our current team.
Some of you pricks are so jaded you’d whinge if we signed Tedesco or Cleary.
I like the signing. With Greig also improving we are now set for props.
+1. It's about time we replaced Marata / Oregan and now Emu has stepped up, we'll have some steel in the middle (when Reg gets back that is).

We still need a centre and the kids like Blaze etc are year or two away. It's a shame Cini hasn't sorted his D out.

It seems like we wanted this more then the tigers so I’d be surprised if we aren’t paying his full salary
Who drops out of the 17 to make way … maka I suppose ?

definitely improves our side so not sure why so much whinging however still leaves us with a couple of massive problems with our top 17 (hooker and outside back) and also concerning that there doesn’t appear to anyone coming through our system of quality that we can bring into firsts and allow us to save salary space

Re Cini you said similar about Greig. Just needs an opportunity amongst better players like he did in the pre season. Surely hes better than Dunster or Waqa.

Actually, whilst Maka has a contract for 2024, there have been plenty of ESL clubs mention him as a potential for their front row next season. Remember that he played in England before however in the Championship League with Featherstone under Ryan Carr. So now after 50 (?) NRL games he's looking at playing for a big club in Super League. He might be going back, especially if he sees his time is up at the eels.

I reckon we go for Bradman Best with the money that Blake was on.

I had a staff member who once asked for a pay rise. I said that she needs to work harder, get to work on time etc if she wants more money. She said that she'll work harder if I pay her more. o_O

Why can't Cini just f**king sort out his hit n stick and then his form will put pressure on Simonsson ? Seriously, if you can't get ahead of Simonsson, then do you really have a future ? Dunster doesn't play centre and Waqa is injured. Perfect opportunity and now outside top 30 players can be selected. He should be playing out of his skin right now.

I see a couple of you f**kers got perfect rounds in the tipping comp last week. Which means you must have tipped against the Eels you disloyal merkins.
I don't do tipping anymore.

My dad is in one though at his local bowlo.

In Magic Round he was 0/7 and we told him to get off Parra in the final game as he was clearly bringing bad luck so he changed to the Titans 15 mins before kick off and managed to get 1/8.

If he stayed with Parra he would have got duck egg for the round.

Joffas a good player and great guy for culture/leadership etc off the field. I wasnt excited about his signing from brisbane but was pleasantly surprised about the player hes become. Trust me, youve got a good one. Hes not a game changer but hes better then a ''solid first grader.'' Cant believe Parra have actually signed a likable player from us, yuck.
