Season 2024

[Tigerm]

Salary cap wise, I think we should be able to sign both AFB and Luai, while holding on to Klemmer. Maybe not long term and someone else will get squeezed out, but my god we will be looking good for 2025

Agree, as I don't think we will resign Doueihi, which will give the club $600k?

I have 55% sure we will sign Luai. I know I should know better then to get my hopes up but for some reason I am confident about this..

Yeah, I'm hopeful too.
Pretty sure it is between us and the dogs, they have burton on big coin and Gus has said his priority is AFB?
I think we want both?

This is the sight I want to see from this guy.
Often Stefano would run too upright and not have an impact. Get a little bit of a lean and drive dem big legs.
He has to attract 3 defenders and after post contact get to the knees and get a quick play the ball.
If we were to snag AFB and keep Stefano, what a formidable middle we would have.

Everyone is in a singlet or tee shirt, except Twally.

The guy is a tough bastard. Hahaha

Some guys are so deceptive, Joe Ofanhengaue was apparently 115kgs when with us. Theres no way Id think hes the heaviest in our forward pack.

Joe was super cut, not an ounce of fat on the man. I'm still sorry he left. I do think his best days are behind him though.

What was wrong with him?

What was wrong with him?

Shoulder mostly, I seem to remember another injury, but not sure, between send off's and injuries, he had a year to forget.

Is it purely a coincidence that his name comes up around the same time that we stop chasing Olam?

Are we going to have a fearless prediction topic over the off season?
I'll get in first by saying we will win rd1. Ha ha.

We'll improve our position on the ladder from the last 2 seasons in'24.

Going to have to wait until we get a rough idea of the opposition's top 17 then compare it to ours.
At this stage 12th seems a bonus compared to when we got 9th often.
Really, our pack on paper is a good one and our backs are on the mend.
The key will be if our new coaches can get game plans together so we don't get gassed defending all the time.
Key Numero Uno is our ½ back Sezer. If he can pull off a great year then we can build on that!

Getting out of the bottom 4 would be a huge season. Im going to set the bar at 8 wins, if we get that its a pass.
