Go to junior reps 2023 thread 2nd last page has a thing on our juniors and he’s in it looks solid. I reckon he can use the heavy roller.
Don’t know if I linked it properly? So here is the pic.

Thanks Buttface. That's a really excellent summary of what looks to be a very deep and talented junior ranks. Feledy looks like a tank and more like a second rower than a centre!
 
Still the best recruitment for years. Sad as that is. Ramien would stay at the Sharks. Hard to get players from the top teams.
I think you're right Sean T. The Sharks are a strong club with a popular coach. Can't see him leaving either unless we pay him megabucks........
 
I am not worried about our depth on depth.

The problem is our two "halves" are Brooks and AD. We need to solve that problem by bringing someone in. Filling up on Fringe grade halves who are only good for the occasional reserve appearance is wrong.

Forwards, different situation. The more aggressive our pre-games and training is the better our first grade.

Depth means your next halves talent will look at us and not get a start at First grade. Keep the "reserve" space open and look for a person who is blocked in another club that would upgrade Broooks/AD.
That is the problem. There is no one putting pressure on our halves which means one of 2 things - either inadequate hales in the backup or no potential halves to pressure....Will Smith is not a halves solution and that is the problem when i look at our recruitment . Not to say we are the only ones either. Across the board apart from Dragon's, Roosters, South's, Canberra and Bronco's there seems to be a lack depth of backup halves.
I will always stand corrected but this is a massive weakness in our depth both in NRL and NSWRL.
 
Regarding Ramien and Bulldog Ritchie's article, we are closer to signing him that Ritchie is making out we are. His Management came to the Tigers he does have some interest, my contact at the Sharks was pretty confident last week he won't be with them in 2024.
I guess however does not mean a cashed up dolphins won't make a play for him either
 
5’11”, 95 kg.

Looks to have bulked up over pre-season since these highlight videos.

Hope people aren't thinking the next Eric Grothe Snr ...just don't throw too many expectations on the bloke just yet
