Any rumours of what players we will have on our T & T list for 2025??

With the halves situation, I think it will pay better to be a little patient. As some have said, see where Hunt ends up and what the fallout is there. The other one to watch is at Penrith. If they're looking at Mbye to cover Cleary, which is from a reliable source in Peter Lang who does a lot of Penrith coverage, then that may open the Schneider discussion again. Frankly, Douehi and Illias are both poor options to put it kindly. Schneider is no star, but he is so much better than those guys. Penrith will have so many halves options if they land Mbye, having Talagi, Laurie, Schneider, Cole in addition to him all looking at a halves spot. Makes me think they'll be happy to move at least one of Schneider/Cole on, with Schneider the more likely. Keep chasing Atkinson as well, but you would have to think that is more of a 2026 prospect

NickyT & Ackers are locked.. speculation over the rest.. I think Lawson & King-Togia will be 2 more of them (but neither is confirmed) and still no confirmation about TomE's contract status.

Beyond that I think some of the Train & Trial kids might fight it out for the remaining spots.. or perhaps one of the young hookers might take it if Flanno feels we need one first grade available.. I think those decisions may TBD.

Sign pap for fullback CB to no 6 solved we have BH 1 million available go hard on pap why not .

Bellamy has said that he is not going anywhere - plus Papenhuzen has also said that it’s not about money as he is happy down in Sin City .

You now dived that by 2 and you may see him in Parramatta colours next season .

Correct

Sione Fainu (Tigers Prop) is expected to start the season on a train & trial deal would he be worthwhile targeting? Only 23 don't know much about him to be honest.

Thought Lodge to Souths was based on IIias being moved on??
If he does not pick up a new club, then no room for Lodge at the Bunnies.

The bunnies said recently that they have two spots left in their top30

unless that has changed as they have 12 TT players of which lodge is not one

He does look ok in the couple games I saw

I suspect we need more though ie older harder finals type prop

ie we have the young props already at the club that could be very very good players over time

we need that metre eater now
