French would be ahead of Noffa and close to Johnson on tries per game in the NRL. Probably top 10-20 all time across first 40 career starts. He was better than people are giving him credit for and has shone in SL.
Spot on. Top 6 sides, who we need to catch, have very few weaknesses in the NRL. Pretty easy to spot them in our roster as it stands and our best hope is a whole bunch of kids come good at once. Rare. I trust the brains trust (now we have one) are working on it.
What makes you say that about a sg ball player?
Fox wouldn’t be a bad shout if the dogs decided to make room for both brothers.
Didn't wanna get in the ring with Jackson Murray
No real surprise, that bit of Gould “ spin doctoring” about boxing always seemed a bit far fetched to me.
Has been playing A grade in Mackay local comp, no backward step. Good comp up there, a lot of former nrl players . A mate of mine was involved in coaching the side - Maggie’s, spoke highly of him, as did other players in that comp, other coaches. Well advance well, cows, sharks, were after him as well.
Gus on the prowl .. he's had sneaky secretive talks with both the Mays boys (Terrell and Taylan) about joining the Dogs .. watch this space .. Reminds of a quote Gus said late last season about how to building a club .. Gus said .. "to build a successful club you have to develop and promote the juniors within your club" .. to date the Dogs have bought 17 NRL 1st graders .. !! well said Gus you muppet .. !!
Less than 6 months ago .. Pangai Jnr tore up his $750K contract with the Dogs to go boxing .. now the Broncos want to pick up Pangai for around $350K .. i would love to see the NRL grow some balls and say to the Broncos .. sorry he's worth $750K .. that's what you pay .. !!
Yep $ 350 would be a joke , maybe make them pay what ever another team would pay him , Say Dragons offer $ 650 2 year deal , they have to match it , other wise the cap is useless as he would be worth every cent of $ 650 k per year , but it’s the NRL. , Nothing Really Legit
I'd like to hear about it as well but we know it won't happen! The NRL is about entertainment and the Broncos are a crowd puller. Bums on seats and in lounge rooms watching the NRL. What we have to do is to continue to engage our juniors in the Inner West and Campbelltown/Macarthur regions and get their parents involved to back WTs.
If he does come back to the NRL I hope the Broncos do try sign him for 350k and the NRL forces the Dogs into honouring the rest of this initial contract, 400k, which they illegally forced him into breaking due to a fake retirement against his will.
It was a weird one. Even the years prior were won by noted big powerful packs but that year with the last 4 premiership winners failing to qualify it seem’d as though the game benefited a mobile pack and lots of ball movement for that season only and whoever did it best, benefited.
That was the perfect scenario though wasn’t it!
but it was his choice to go out of pocket?! The dogs avoided the payment.
This guy. A bit young for a NRL forward spot.
The one that is feels very similar to is RTS leaving the triple Minor Premiership winners to join a bottom 4 team at the Warriors. Even more odd given that he was waiting to claim the Fullback Jersey off Minicello and spent the entire 2015 season as the new custodian.
