NAS is a massive yes from me. I know many will be against it. Having him for 2-3yrs will culminate in the top group of young forwards learning off him and jnr and be absolutely ready to be the main guys once they retire.
He only needs to play 30 or so mins a week.
Been saying it for ages he needs a change of clubs.
Hoping the JAC, Ryles influence can get him to us.
I'm all about strengthening. He would certainly add to our team.
Yes hes a risk with his disciplinary record but Ryles can iron him out..
Get it done

I can't stand his head but I'll get over it. Lets do it.

I would cool our jets on NAS given that the NRL has taken a dislike to massive idiots who can't stop forearming or shouldering opponents in the head and have instead given free reign to good looking half the size Brisbane fullbacks who do the same.

The days of NAS and JWH are over. Now is the age of mid-sized speedsters with a penchant for toilet water, drug driving crashing into kids, a sob backstory with a big Instabook grin.

I was impressed by Moses' plea to Lomax to stick solid in 2026.

It spoke volumes about Moses' commitment to our club, the team and everything we believe.

I don't expect Lomax to heed his call, instead it's sounded the rest of the squad and by extension us out into the real intent and purpose of a Ryles-Moses led GF victory in the next two years.

His too tall and massive for the modern game and the current rules especially head contact I think.

The contact also looks 100 x worse when its a big bloke like NAS on a smaller bloke running the ball compared to Reece walsh shoulder a bloke to the head whose bigger then him.

I would think Ryles and Moa would really need to spend the off season working on his tackling technique.

Because we all see him as a grub we also look at a few things he does through a certain lense

But I reckon there have been a few sin bins and suspensions he has copped in recent times simply because of his record and size.

He wasnt looking to make head contact but his body shape and technique makes its unavoidable and throw in his size the contact looks a thousand times worse.

Spot on.

The game is changing formation again. Massive units like NAS and JWH who can't help themselves are a thing of the past.

Matto got engaged today. He isn’t going to be walking away from any coin that’s for sure….
Ya gotta hand it to the parasite, he's eked out a lucrative career of doing a half arsed day on full time elite pay all the while hitting the gym with the best physios and masseurs only a top flight NRL club can provide all courtesy of club membership coin.

He was a problem at both the Roosters and Wests. This 3 year deal with options was Brad's idea to save himself

And this is why Lomax is leaving, they make the same money, though busts his ass, the other plays for himself, I’m still not sure Lomax knows why he signed for Parra….anyway he is definitely of to the new yawnion comp, so it’s done

I agree.
On occasion the person hitting the ball up is tackled by Nelson and because of his height comes into contact with his shoulder.
It appeared to me there was no malice intended
