I think this is The first time we've played a QLD team in magic round isn't it? Beat the Panthers dragons and knights in previous iterations. Also the club gets great $$$ to have a "home" game for magic round. I don't see any issues with it tbh.
In my favourite rumour I've heard in ages apparently someone from Saints approached the club about a Lomax/Sullivan swap deal 😂
Would probably make a few in here happy but I don't think there's any way we can match the Parra offer coming Lomax's way. Not sure we need him at his expensive rate...
Interesting wording how "the club" signed Luai, with no mention of Fulton being involved but saying he signed because of Fulton? Reckon there might be some liberty being taken with that comment
Massive signing for the club. Let's hope it all goes well. One more year of dislike for Luai on the forum then he gets the chance to be the second coming
No idea tbh. I have a feeling we might hear from Weidler on 9 tonight if something happens though he seems to be the one getting the tips from the Panthers lately.
"Those in the know" reckon Luai is having his final meeting with the Panthers today with the ridiculous 10 day contract rule they brought in. Dogs haven't made an offer apparently which puts us in the box seat if it's true.
For anyone who is interested about hearing what the senior players are doing (or at least were planning) the Footy Talk podcast has a one-on-one with Aaron Woods and Api. Real interesting listen for me talking about starting last year late but this year saying he is going to be the one to set...
Nof trying his hardest to get a golden handshake maybe?

They were ahead, needed to win by a certain margin to make the finals. Had a penalty advantage so he took the shot because if he missed they'd get the pen but he nailed it. They won the game but didn't make the finals as a result.
Yep. 5 @ Leichhardt, 5 @ Campbelltown, 1 @ Magic Round and 1 @ Tamworth v Knights in Rd 24
Also playing Souths and Dragons at Campbelltown and Easter Monday is a Parra home game. Rest of the draw out today
