Wouldn't a player swap mean we lost a player from our current squad in order to get Tago?

How the f**k is he "on our books"?
We aren't paying him and he isn't taking a spot in our squad.
he's not on our books

we just have him by the balls for 2 years if he wants to play NRL

I generally am on the Penisini hasn’t delivered bandwagon but I actually think he was ok today which compared to nearly everyone else isn’t that bad (and played well in the trails too). Running with more purpose and clearly has got stronger in the off-season. Not writing him off just yet

Come at me.

Come at me you f**king wankers who argued I’m full of shit. That we have a top side this year!!!

The amount of people that convince themselves they know what winning looks like shows how many don’t.

I desperately want to be wrong. But we ain’t doing shit this year.

It’s pretty f**king shit to be a Parra fan but I won’t change.

You're braver than me.

I'm honestly tired of this sort of effort.

So many tries scored by the Storm were just off lazy defence.

Our squad is ordinary, but I'm tired of supporting pretenders, man.

He's dumb as shit and has dicks for fingers, if we could somehow fix these issues he'd be a decent centre. Sadly he just really doesn't seem like that is ever going to change. Did like belting Meaney on the kick chase though.

Will will come up with 1 of 2 defensive howlers a game , 1 or 2 terrible drop balls a game and there’s nothing surer than him not only not finishing off try’s but losing possession attempting to score on the 1st tackle . He didn’t learn his lesson in the trial.

Overall a terribly disappointing way to start the year . Such a long wait to see your team get the shit kicked out of them round 1. Having said that it was a very weird game . There was no real set for set cycle … Todd Smith was finding parra hands on balls at the end of every set . Just terrible reffing and no feel for the game at all. Parra had to defend a lot of 10 and 11 tackle sets and the juice just went out of them Their own mistakes didn’t help the cause but a few of them can be attributed to fatigue . Feel it’s just a game you learn your lessons quickly and move on .

Thought Ryles also made a few tactical errors in that game and he’ll also be better for it . Bringing Joash on when our big boys like De Belin and Paulo were completely gassed was an error . 10 mins of Iongis HIA was the half time break so those 5 Joash mins cost us another middle which we desperately needed . Joash , Da Silva and Walker was too small a bench . Wouldn’t have made much difference at the end of the day but something we need to get right going forward.

As much as we need to be better the officials need to be too. Some absolute howlers and getting caned like that in possession at this time of year is suicide. Early season is all about building resilience and finding wins which you can’t do with 39% ball.

Regarding JDB. Why did we sign him? Why? The bloke can’t even pass the ball. His pass looks laboured like a 2 year old just learning the game. He runs backwards. What in the hell were they thinking? What were they drinking when they signed this plodder?! WHY?

I was tricked by the usual suspects that have no idea of what a good player looks like. Those same idiots celebrated Kelly and Pezet.

MON has to be sacked.

Yep he has a complete lack of footy iq, bombs tries, a terrible passer and even worse hands.

True but MON should of been punted with Baldie, how anyone thought replacing Lomax with Kelly was remotely a good idea huffs paint.


Add in paying silly money and a Cuck chair for Pezet the BBQ bed sniffer and don't forget eyebrows who's service is about as good as a shitty McDonalds and our recruitment is on par with 2023. We all know how that turned out.

At this point, I'd settle for not being a laughingstock, let alone winning a comp.

I'm so sick of this shit.

It's almost as if Talataina has taken the signing of Pezet personally - Pezet has been ordinary, at the very best, while Lorenzo is killing it in Cup.

I reckon Lorenzo will be our 6 by season's end...
Firstly Pezet is no 6 and secondly he looks pretty f**king average. Might make a 7 one day but he's already a bust. I'd already be looking at dumping this plodder and his cuck chair and looking at getting Lorenzo in ASAP.

There was a play in the second half where he picked up the ball and tried to beat 3 men on the outside with no support. Had t fling it back and we managed to get away with it but f**k. It was just typical of him not thinking. The almost try in the first half too after the Iongi break. It was play 2 I think and he goes reaching out like inspector f**ken gadget and loses it. It’s just infuriating.

Watching the presser…..unfortunately same old nonsense….this is Ryles team so he will have to wear the blame and shown the door if we dog it the rest of the year, I thought JDB and Kelly were decent signings, never wanted Pezet, Anastasia is a genius….but clearly our singings are very very average

Looking back on th game, Pezet was targeted verbally and physically by the Storm and seemed scared by it all. Actually anyone who believes he offered anything in that game is delusional.

iongi, Russell possibly Hopgood get pass marks, what on earth were Smtih and DaSilva , and the rest doing in the game. Frustrating and as for the Todd Smith and Butler in the bunker where did they get game instructions from.

Recruitment remains an issue , the experienced players let us down but at least the young players in Cup turned up.
