Agree with this 100%.
Flanagan May be many things but he knows his footy.
He tweaked that roster and made sure that lack of talent is replace by size and aggression both in the forwards and the backs. He has great half in Hunt and an overall team that seems to be consistently up, motivated and well prepared for a battle ….. their whole team looks up this year ….. just like the 2024 buldogs.
The only thing that I’m puzzled about is how they can allow for Lomax to be let go. Time will only tell If that decision does not come back to bite them.
If we could move him on for the chance of someone half decent, then hell yeah. 48 tackles is good but I'm sure plenty of other back rowers do the same. He's attack is rubbish and his hands are slippery.Might be an unpopular opinion but if we could get an adequate trade i would move Ice on. From moment one when he signed with us he's be disinterested, we seemed to have the warriors version not the Parra one.
I know he makes a lot of tackles at times 48 yesterday someone quoted but he also has some horrendous misses or efforts highlighted in the Sua try there's quite a few of those ive seen him attempt or not attempt.
He rarely makes an impact in attack perhaps its the way we use him vs his Parra days, but i really think he doesn't give a toss about being here.
I think as soon as he's able he'll probably sign elsewhere anyway so we may as well try and get something in return for him the bloke is treading water here.
And a bigger brown paper bag.. thank you TT.Papalli is not the problem. You strengthen the roster around a player like him you don't move them on. Every week fans lament players going well at stronger clubs - that's because they are playing with more talented rosters.
Good point you raise.Papalli is not the problem. You strengthen the roster around a player like him you don't move them on. Every week fans lament players going well at stronger clubs - that's because they are playing with more talented rosters.

Yes Mason has been great in a struggling team in Cup. I think he could be dangerous around the ruckBenj has already spoken to his utility value and how he goes 100 miles an hour at everything. I think he's the ideal 14 moving forward, but Benj has to utilise him. we can't waste his key development phase by having him sit on the pine for 80 like he has with Sullivan and now Simpkin.
Agree.
But some of his individual efforts, on both sides of the ball, have been absolutely atrocious for 14 months.
He is a defensive liability at some point in EVERY game.
I think it's hard to argue with Su'a being a legitimately good signing suggestion, given his current form.I’d be grabbing Sua and swapping for Papalii. He offers zero. Give him back to Parra. He wanted to stay there.
100%.I think it's hard to argue with Su'a being a legitimately good signing suggestion, given his current form.
He's a menace.
tito why would he want to come to us...were going worse then Dragons..we dont have a lot of money either so that cant even be a carrotI’d be grabbing Sua and swapping for Papalii. He offers zero. Give him back to Parra. He wanted to stay there.
I don’t think he’s had form since he has been here. I think he had one good season at Parra and we drank the Coolaid with an unbridled enthusiasm.We signed Papali'i when he was reigning second rower of the year. It's up to Benji to get the best out of him.
Why would Su'a come here after seeing Ice's form fall off of a cliff?
Exactly.I don’t think he’s had form since he has been here. I think he had one good season at Parra and we drank the Coolaid with an unbridled enthusiasm.
Why wouldn’t he come here? Team is coming good. We played a bad game. So what?
Is there a player in a lesser team who is not guilty of missing a tackle? Unrealistic expectations placed on individual players is always going to lead to disappointment. His work rate exceeds most of our players but he is never not going to be guilty of missing tackles when we keep inviting good teams into attacking positions.Agree.
