I’d have a look at Sam Stonestreet for depth. Has plenty of pace too. Blake Wilson can get f**ked. We tried twice and he said no. He can now stay in NSW Cup.

It’s been reported that Jake Averillo is homesick and wants to come back to Sydney as does Ray Stone. Jonah Pezet also has a get out clause if Hughes re-signs at the Storm and Anasta on one of his podcasts slipped that we have made an enquiry about his services.

Agree f**k Wilson.

We’ve enquired about Pezet? That’s interesting. I wonder if Hughes resigns it’s an immediate release possible meaning he can leave immediately..?

What’s your thoughts on Pezet, is he that good? He’d certainly fit our youth approach.

Think overrated based on the little I've seen of him. I'd go hard for Averillo and also heard somewhere Deine Mariner could be released as on outer at Broncos. Both have good speed and both can play multiple positions and speed is the key these days.

He played for most of the first half and he was alwful.

A player is being shopped by the Titans. Why ?

If we sign him and he is shit, it's your fault.

How was he awful? Once he went off their kicking game went up the creek.

If we sign him and he is shit you can add me to the shit list..

Fine sign Campbell. IDGAF. I reckon he is a mini Temu version of Galvin.

He will cost twice as much Joash and frankly might not deliver much more come mid 2026. At least with Joash we don't have a large salary millstone around our necks and we can use him as a utility if a kid comes through or a real deal talented 5/8 falls out of a tree.

Jackson Koina ditches Broncos to sign with Parramatta Eels​

The Eels have struck gold while the Broncos will be feeling blue with one of Queensland’s best young schoolboys opting to move to Sydney rather than sign with the Brisbane powerhouse.

The Jason Ryles revolution at Parramatta has gathered more steam after the Eels raided the Brisbane Broncos to steal one of the most promising teenage forwards in Queensland.
Jackson Koina, the son of former Eels player Nathan Koina, was one of the stars of the Maroons side that won last week’s national schoolboy championships in Coffs Harbour, taking out Queensland’s player of the carnival award.

The year 12 student started the schoolboys championships on the bench but forced his way into the starting side and was rewarded with a place in the front row for the Australian side at tournament’s end.

It is understood Koina has joined the Eels until the end of 2028 on a deal that will eventually see him transition into the NRL squad.

If the tournament is anything to go by, Parramatta look to have struck gold. Sport Confidential understands that Koina will join the Eels at the end of the season as he looks to follow in the footsteps of his father Nathan, who played four first grade games for the club in 1997 at the height of the Super League war.

Nathan Koina also made a handful of appearances for their reserve grade side that year and the year after.

His son found his way into the Broncos system but will now pull on the blue and gold as the Eels build their future around a group of teenage stars emerging through their system - they have had seven Australian schoolboy representatives across the past two national titles.


The Eels have conducted a clean-out of their playing ranks since Ryles joined the club at the end of last season, focusing much of their attention on retaining their own elite juniors and cherrypicking quality from their rivals.
