Rumours and Stuff

No offence....but you'll be waiting.....

We just need to go out and splash the cash on a powerhouse forward pack. I would love to see us actually dominate in the forwards. I honestly can't remember the last time our forwards steamrolled through teams consistently. Maybe 2005.

If we can't develop our own, we aren't going to be winning anything

But did Ryles do too much off the field stuff and not focus enough on the field.

Did Bennett just walk in, lay down the law and that's it?

Bennett likes this to go to a squad that's already together (apart from the fins and they didn't make the finals the 2 years he was in charge).

All he has to do is make some minor changes to squeeze the last bit out of them until he leaves and then that club goes to being shit for years.

It's probably why he said no to us as we had to rebuild alot more than he wanted to do..


Ryles is trying to change the club culture from the bottom up.. Getting the area involved as well as hopefully having even the media look at us different..

The media are certainly looking at us differently. We are now looked at as the 2022-2024 Tigers.

Do you mind me asking what he has done in this regard - give specific examples - it sounds good ?

Walker speaks like a 200+ game veteran with a lot of common sense - might be a good leader for some of the younger brigade.

Super astute signing.

I don't know whether the credit goes to Ryles, O'Neil, or the entire recruitment team - but well done.

Dylan Walker is exactly the type of personality we need at this club.

Season 2025 may be a write-off, but with experienced heads like Moses, Addo-Carr, and Walker on board for 2026, I am genuinely excited for our future.

All hail Ryles!
