Bula
Large
Galvin
Da Silva

Long term...

Yeah just brush Luai. No future.

As a matter of fact, my son is 6 and goes ok.

when Luai hangs em up, I’d say so. Large will likely come into the backline to begin his career, likely as a centre.

1. Bula
2. Willett
3. Large
4. Makasini
5. L. Laulili’i
6. Galvin
7. Luai

Luai is here for 5 Years, Onitoni be 21/22 at the end of that...
Luai be 31/32....

Best get the titolater out to help with the math...

Luau will play till his late 30s….

Baby Tito!

He's been rated highly for a while. Do you think he's overtaken Large as the top u/17 player at the club?

No, Onitoni has it All .. he is an absolute prodigy, Benji Marshall, Kalyn Ponga, Brad Fittler level junior talent.. and his little Bro, Ashton , is not far behind him.. both will be superstars IMO

I like it but I would have Latu at 5/8 and Galvin at lock

 

[TigerNeddyK]

Tito, can he tackle and is he available on Saturday to play 13 ?

 

[teddy23]

you can certainly make "quiet" approaches to player managers who then pass it onto the club and player in question, that's how these conversations start and anti-tampering rules are alleviated...

the Butcher's are Eastern Suburbs through and through. we went pretty close to signing Egan last time but his love for the club kept him there. he'd walk into our starting 13 backwards, but I doubt we'll be able to prise him out of Bondi.

As much as you can love a club, the one thing players love more is minutes.

Egan most likely won’t see much of that this year and at this rate he could end up the next young prospect who never fulfilled his potential.

I’m sure Egan knows that and I hope we do too….

This is from left field , pangai wants back into the nrl I no he can be lazy but when he hits the line he hits it , his defence is good , but his attitude can be well off , but we need a mongrel to lead our soft co*** forwards

Sounds positive

But at what club will they shine?

His size, power and aggression is what we need, but I think his time at the Bulldogs and decision to pull out of a sizeable contract showed he does not have the mental capacity the lead from the front when his team is struggling.

Egan Butcher plays with aggression and could really add something to our side.
The Roosters could be tempted to release him early too as they have plenty of back row depth and are wanting to recruit Taylan May and Zac Lomax.

 

[Tito Santana]

Tito, can he tackle and is he available on Saturday to play 13 ?

He would trip the opposition players over as he got steam rolled - still better than Seyfarth - plus he would play for a packet of Allens Retro Favourites.

And on that note, I’m off to the servo to get myself a pack.

 

[Rusty]

Where is Latu ?

exactly.... IMO
2026
1. Large
2. Willett
3. Bulla
4. Makasini ? Sukara(spelling)
5. L. Laulili’i.
6/7. Latu
6/7 Luai
11/12 Galvin or centre until Makasini is ready.

 

[Buttface]

Yeah just brush Luai. No future.

As a matter of fact, my son is 6 and goes ok.
