Rumours and Stuff

Agreed, they had a reasonable view of us this year. Problem is that they never know as much about our team as we do so it can get a bit frustrating when they talk about us normally.
I thought they were a bit harsh on Offa. Otherwise they did OK for a bunch who don't know much about pre-season injuries / surgeries.

Lots of players are earmarked for huuuuge seasons, if maybe.

They didn't sledge us, so that's a plus.

They're free to leave because they're off contract, not because of the PO. The PO does the opposite. It means they are free to stay even if we don't want them, e.g. Dunster.
I’m referring to contract negotiations. I think we’ve decided that it’s worth not keeping any of our roster if the only way we can get them to sign is to include POs. We’ll have a max figure in mind and if we can’t reach an agreement we’ll move on and not use POs as a bargaining tool.

This is an interesting comment, does it mean better than the back-ups? Does it mean better than our starters?

I also went last night...

it could be an each way bet, it was also revealed that we had 2 spots left despite the conjecture from other sources saying that we have 3 spots remaining, this means that there could be an upgrade on the cards which i assume may be Samrani.

the next 2 weeks could also be a very important time for our Sup and T&T squad to land a top 30 spot.

Glowing praise for Ryles.

Wow that’s about the biggest wrap the culture you could imagine.

“Culture” is the word used a lot. I don’t care what anyone says that’s all Ryles and crew.

Great stuff to be enjoying a new environment so much. Lots of chat around learning which Is refreshing.

seriously, is there any chance we can have a BA free zone moving forward? or am I asking too much?
There will always be comparisons simply because of the length if his tenure, however I agree. Moving forward it would be somewhat refreshing to not have the same BA, JA, and Boooods, jokes, smacking for the fun of it, innuendo and just fishing for likes comments.

It's like a drunk divorcee who didn't get enough from the Dr husband in the property settlement.

yeah i get that...

but we've had 6 months or more to get it out of our system and we're literally 3 days from our first game in this era, it's a f**king watershed time for the club....embrace that shit!

I was walking down the street today and saw a bald guy. I walked over and punched him in the head. “F*ck you BA, you ruined my life!” I told him.
“Who is BA?” He replied.
“Shut up and go chase the collision, Bushie”.
It’s been a long off season.

Bang on.

The least surprising "shock" return in the history of rugby league, returns or even shocks in general....
