Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

They've been dodgy since Uncle Nick came on board. They were a joke of a team prior to this.

As soon as they got a big money investor willing to throw cash around, they suddenly became an attractive team and it hasn't stopped.

If you can find it, listen to the Matty Johns podcast with John Singleton from a few years ago. Singo is very open about what a cheater Politis is. I can’t believe Singo’s comments didn’t get more attention.

That is a new one .....isn't Bula the next big thing

Turuva has runs on he board, Bula is still a rookie who has to show he can dominate at NSW Cup level. He needs 250m+ each week on top of the line breaks, try assists, tries as well as solid defence in order to be considered the next big thing

Signing news - kinda. Steeden has signed a 3 year extension with the club as our jersey manufacturer View attachment 4578

Wow, that's terrible news for fans. Their range is absolutely awful. Material is cheap and uncomfortable, not soft or moisture wicking. The sizes are appalling, i'm suddenly a 3-4XL rather than a standard XL everywhere else. The designs don't look too bad, but they just don't provide anything nice for fans.

Is this a tip that Sheens sees Seyfarth's 2nd role as a Winger?

With Sheensy anything’s possible. Remember Chris Lawrence was going to be the next Laurie Daley?

If Keary is only on 700k then it's criminal what Brooks earns

I thought players taking unders to go to a club was against the salary cap rules.

Mid nineties the Roosters had a mortgage on the wooden spoon.

In fairness to Lawrence a dislocated hip can be a career ender. Bo Jackson in America was prob the most naturally gifted athlete to play N.F.L. So much so that in the off season he would play in the M.L.B as well. He was amazing. He dislocated his hip and it was over.
It's a serious injury. Plus the facial injury in preseason he copped that changed his face. To come back from that and still play at N.R.L level is remarkable.
Just a shame Chris dislocated his hip, he lost his speed and step, who knows how good he really could have been in the backline if the injury never happened.

Devastating injury, both physically and mentally.

Tupou is looking huge here. Seyfarth and Ken M aren't little guys. He is only 20 or something isn't he.

Yep, turns 21 later in the year.

Still young enough to play Flegg.

Lawrence’ toughness has not been displayed by too many of his colleagues in recent times.

Would like him on a wing honestly in regards to Tupou.

Crazy to see how him and Fonua Pole
are only 20 and playing in 1st grade
and looking good doing it when given
the opportunities. 2 mainstays for years
