Season 2024

[Llangennech]

Where are we gonna play in the next few years? Think we should play most of our matches at Liechhardt. Maybe take one to Hamilton every year. 2 at Campbelltown for now. Homebush in the future with the rabbitohs going back to Moore Park?

 

[Tigerm]

The best?

Again, is this what you were asking?
The facility has just recently opened at a cost of some $70m, so as I said, if it’s not the best, it isn’t far off it.

If you have access to the West Tiger site you will find it on there.

Pascoe said recently (Ask the Boss podcast, I think), that they decided to come back more to Leichhardt and Campbelltown with some country & a NZ game.

Where are you from?

Yes I've watched videos of the facilities, I've also seen footage of facilities at the Panthers, Storm and Manly, heard the Broncos are building new facilities and the bunnies have opened new ones. It looks quite good, the new ones we've got. I just hope they're good enough to keep and attract above average standard NRL players.

Was that on the Podcast with C Warren? I've listened to a bit of it, I'll listen to the rest quite soon hopefully.

Born and bred in the UK, still here at the moment.

I think it was on the one with Scott Fulton, probably the latest one?

"attract above average standard NRL players" is proving a bit difficult atm, though we did get some good forwards last year. But a lot of good players get tied up with their current clubs, plus us being a two times wooden spoon club, probably doesn't make it that attractive to come, for now.
It will turn, just not sure when.lol

From what I can tell our squad next year is:

1. Bula
2. Tupou
3. Naden
4. Toa
5. Nofoaluma
6. Sezer
7. Sullivan
8. Utoikamanu
9. Korisau
10. Klemmer
11. Papalii
12. Bateman
13. Pole
14. Twal
15. Blore
16. Matamua
17. Simpkin
18. Kepeoa
19. Latu Fainu
20. Sione Fainu
21. Sam Fainu
22. Da Silva
23. Tumeth
24. Reilly
25. Feledy
26. Mansfield
27. Doueihi
28. Galvin

Dev: Laulili, Faagutu (both middle forwards)

Rumoured: Seyfarth and Staines offered deals. Twal allowed to leave. Lobb from Saints on Dev

We need to clear some space and the ones Ive highlighted are who Id be fine with letting go. We really need some outside backs coming in, getting rid of Nofa would be a god send but someone taking a guy like Kepaoa or Toa would be more likely. Mansfield and Tumeth were terrible contracts, both guys should be on development as a maximum, no ones else would offer them a Top 30. With Development players now allowed to play from Round 1 a couple of young backs need to be recruited for these spots. Apparently Alex Lobb from Saints is one, a tall goal kicking winger. A young fullback like Savage from Raiders would also be worth alook.

Latest rumour is Seyfarth is staying on a 2 year extension?

For me, Kepeoa offers the depth for wing, centre and back row.

 

[Fordy20]

What do you make of Kaeo Weekes? Roughly the same age as Savage. Off contract. Probably would prefer to be second choice fullback rather than fourth like he would be if he re-signed with Manly

absolutely worth a shot. Was more thinking someone like savage who is a fullback/wing type whereas Weekes is more your fullback/half. But would def say yes

Beau Ryan can't be far away from joining the coaching staff too. At least Benji will have his lunches sorted.

I’m hoping they might be able to sway Benny G in coming back.

I wonder what Bryce Gibbs, Liam Fulton and Bryce Gibbs are up to? May as well have a chat with Daniel Fitzhenry and see what his plans are.

 

[gordsy]

It will also be the first time in his career he will work as part of any coaching staff,

So we promote the bloke who couldn't get us looking fit into a position he is unqualified for. What could go wrong. And people wonder why I refuse to give these merkins a cent

Does this mob ever learn about re-employing people who have shit on them?

 

[Ron's_Mate]

Beau Ryan can't be far away from joining the coaching staff too.

Tim Moltzen can't be far off getting a gig there as well.

 

[Front-Rower]

The circus continues. The club is stuck in 2005 and doesn’t know how to get out of it.
