Haaa I’m confused who we trying to offload to super league, Michael, Frank or both?

St George Illawarra Dragons star offered to Super League clubs

St George Illawarra Dragons prop Michael Molo is the latest player to have been offered to Super League clubs, Love Rugby League has learned.

Michael Molo and agent have probably already been made aware that there will be no contract extension

Michael. The suggestion was that we signed him as a sweetener to extend Frank. If Frank is intent on pissing off, no need to extend Michael again.

It's the FAFO rule in operation. Frank can explain to Michael why he is being moved on.

Hope we use Michael Molo's salary to extend Jacob Halangahu and Finau Latu

So Frank , to be frank, is the “decent” one but isn’t half the Molo Michael is, especially when it comes to giving a lift to his brother, except when it comes to getting him a contract he’s now trying to get out of… same as he is, except he expects an indecent amount of money to do the right thing. Am I wrong?

Mick was running off the back fence in the trials.. He was giving it everything he had, and he has footwork too as he has teased us with over the years...

His issue is physically he is much smaller than nrl forwards.. But I definitely think a super league team could make use of him (Lawrie too imo), mick won't be on much money.. But.. Still gotta get a deal done, and fast if we want klemmer.

Reminds me of Peter Matautia.

Looked him up.

Signed to us from NTL and shifted to SL in 2018, retired in 2023.

Ludicrous recipe for disaster.

Lawrie was terrible in 2024, but was descent in 2023. I just hope he improves this year. I think he has the potential, but time will tell. If he was un signed I would not sign him, but we are stuck with him for now. If 2025 is just as bad them I think that should be the end. I am hoping that he has a good year because we are short on quality in his position.

By 2026 we will have bunch of young gun forwards who got a few - or more - runs in 2025.

Let's say we need twelve forwards. We will still have Liddle, Cook, Guhler, Luciano and Sua, and maybe JDB and Klemmer to lead them but the other five or seven forwards will be young guys.

2 x Couchman, Loko, Stewart, Egan, Latu, Halangahu?

When we extended Michael Molo I couldn’t quite understand it at the time felt like a desperate move.
