Rumours and Stuff

Yes I agree that Blaze has all the traits of a quality player, it's just that I still don't think that he is physically ready for NRL. I could be wrong though, but I fear for young players especially ones that aren't big lumps and that we rush them way to quickly into the NRL. There have been countless examples of this, but anyway, hopefully my worries about this kid will be unjustified. He was pretty ordinary in defence though so we will have to wait and see.

But year he moves very well with the ball in hand and he stepped up from his previous performances that I had seen where he was timid in coming forward with the ball so it is a great sign that maybe he just needed more exposure in the top grade to get accustomed and settle in. He does look good out there when he has some space in front of him.

Here's to him continuing to develop and getting better and better with each game he plays. We need to keep producing quality young players so as to maintain our top 8 quality team and eventually crack the big one and win the damned thing. It's the only way for a club like ours to have premiership success.
Respectfully Ram, if he’s good enough he’s old enough. I am an ordinary judge of a football player, but he strikes me as a special kid. With the rules the way they are now, I feel the kids are sufficiently protected. So I would like to see BA use him regularly in NRL this season

I reckon Blaize has more of a future than Josh Schuster.
Watching him in Reserve Grade V Dragons today - Schuster reads a game pretty well. Wherever the ball is not going to be, that's where you will find him.
Has to be the laziest player on big money in the NRL. Too fat to get out of his own way!!!
Bet his team-mates are disappointed in his efforts...

Which Parramatta Eels forward has been mentioned in a possible swap deal with St George-Illawarra for unhappy winger Zac Lomax.


I’ll add the only forward I would consider swapping out of regular 17 would be Lane, and even then I’m not sure. Would welcome Lomax, but no point strengthening centre to weaken our forwards

Has been mentioned by whom ? STG has a wish list no doubt. They can have Emu.

They shouldn't be offered Emu. He is our future big bopper.
I don't want to give away any forwards but the only ones I would think about are Maka or Ogden.
Well I did think about them, but I was being realistic about who they they woukd take.

TBH I still don’t get the concept of a big cash centre. I know Souths paid up for Wighton and Pennys just renewed Togo for Fort Knox, but gee Lomax ?

That would be our choice seeing that both are free agents next season. It would be someone that’s under contract like Lomax. I’d give them Lane and replace him with Trey Mooney in season 2025 who is still unsigned.

Just a hunch but reckon GC will pick him shortly.

Dessie will think he played his best footy under him and back himself to turn him around again with Foran in the halves.

Flick Boyd to Qld Cup.

It's getting desperate up there already they look disgraceful the Titans across 3 games so far.
