I got it playing on the new telly man,
Quality is unreal 🔥

Brendan piakura 2nd row plays for norths, excellent player, just not in kevie Walters favourites club. He would be handy pick up. Telling Pascoe for years to align with a q cup side, the quality is fantastic

Melbourne has Sunshine Coast Falcons & Easts Tigers.

I think it’s central Queensland Capras. Dogs are aligned with Toowoomba

Actually it is good policy to support and develop ties with junior clubs in Qld,then of course you have our group of mental midgets running the club.We can't evem hang on to some of our better juniors

I agree 100%. Ilias is terrible. He isn't even the best half at Souths. Hawkins and Taafe are both better. The selection of Ilias could coat souths a premiership

I think Hawkins is going to be very very good

Tommy Talau is getting a top 30 spot & will be used next year in a Luke Garner style role of centre/2nd row.

Nu Brown is not certainty of staying has fair offer on the table but his manager pushing for more.

The Charlie Staines/Tyrone Peachey swap is going ahead & to be announced after Panther's season is finished.

Liddle's release opens up a spot in the top 30 for Nu Brown, if he takes it the squad is full time others are released. Musgrove is free to explore options but seems keen to stay.

Tuki Simpkins also no longer on the market with Sheens keen to work with him.

Henry O'Kane no certainty to stay, has a deal on the table but appears to be leaning elsewhere.

Daine Laurie will be training at 5/8 over the off season as halves cover with Staines coming on board.

Luke Brooks appears the only likely player on re-signing prior to November 1 at this point in time.

Albert Kelly is looking at a train & trial deal for the off-season but will not be offered a top 30 spot unless a few others a moved on. Will be a magpies contract at best

Taafe is a far better player than Illias

I beg to differ, and besides, they play different positions.

Taafe is not an NRL standard half, but goes well at fullback (even during his mid teens his coach at The Entrance Tigers had him playing in the #1)

Illias is a quality young halfback who’s performances in the finals have been eye catching.

Seen illias get caught out on the last play a few times, not a bad half but at this stage he’s not what the wt need to get out of this mess so letting him go wasn’t a bad idea

Ridiculous aye

Only Hunters unattached?

We could do worse than look at a few of those hard heads.

Re Forwards - before we start getting carried away with some of our lower grade forwards .Remember the lightweight arm grabbers got trampled in last few rounds Should rewatch some of those painful replays. No effort or technique .Stick an arm out ,Get brushed off and then what I can't forgive .Just stand there and watch opposing player race away .We tried in 2021 Tuki and 2022 Dias ,Matamua , Pole , Freebairn and with exception of Pole - perhaps
They were found wanting . We need a pack that tramples over the opposition not the other way around

Some good players have come out of CQ. Hunt, Munster and others from Capras.

 

[finnzo]

So no word on any pommy players comming to us it must have just been media nonsense

I'm sure players don't know how to tackle the old way, they need to aim for the soft flanks above the hips and drive. They are coached to tie up the ball....thats ok but when you need to do a driving tackle they don't seem to know what to do.
Classic example is when muster tried to stop the winger from scoring in their last game...terrible.
Compare that to Korribeti (can't spell) a couple of games ago for the Wallabies...he nealy put the opposition into the grandstand. It wasn't perfect technique but he went low and hard and kept going.
Man I'd love him back for a cameo.
I know Victor Radley is sometimes a liability but he would put some steel into our pack. He has the full repertoire of tackling techniques and aggression. Are there anyone like him that are available?

Taafe is a half so is Hawkins both are better half's than Illias.
Penrith second rowers will run through Illias next week and expose that poor defence

Do you realise that his family and friends are all dirtbag criminals? The only way he makes it is if he ditches everyone he knows and starts fresh

Few ppl around who've done good even with most of their fam locked up or running around ganged up.
You'd be surprised my man.
Hope he can do it
