Misty Hyman? Unfortunate name of an American swimmer that won a gold medal at the Sydney Olympics…

I remember that name Misty Hyman, makes me giggle every time. I know it’s childish.
I once met a bloke named Chris Peacock.
Say it faster.

I watched a tape of a horse win in the USA recently. Name “Hoof Harted”, classic race call, somebody please try and find/post ?

Benji and Richo better have some forwards in mind because it’s looking very very likely that come 2025 all of Stefano, Papalili and Bateman will be leaving.

Luai’s talent is too good to waste and if we don’t give him the right pack to succeed we’re gonna have another decade of humiliation.

Seems like Stefano has lost faith in the direction of the club and I can’t blame him - but at the very least we better be making some moves otherwise Galvin will be out just as quick come November 1st next year.

I haven’t lost faith in Benji and Richo to get this done…. I still think those two are going to be the duo to lead us out of this mess.

Well if 360 are correct, Benji has taken the first step in pulling the trigger on underperforming senior players. They saying Bateman and Benji had words after the Souths loss. My guess he finally told little Johnny and Klemmer that they are playing terrible and letting everyone down and little Johnny cried.

Good on him.
The panel backed him up too, that the youngsters have outperformed the old fellas

I assume the reference was to Tuki Kamikamica.

But his name is Tui

Is your position on Stefano based on your opinion ?

Respectfully…. anyone who claims they know what Stefano is doing are just flat out lying.

Stefano doesn’t even know what he wants to do hence the delay - he has multiple offers in front of him and he’s one bad injury away from getting potential offers withdrawn. So if he had his answer in his head he would sign as quickly as he can.

More an opinion that he’s gone… however I think the option of him taking his 1 year deal and waiting for Roosters/Penrith could be an option.

Everything he says is gospel. Believe.

Im just pumped to see the new account name they come up with if wrong... shady shotgun?

 

[Tito Santana]

Seeing all these knobs go (Stefano, Bateman, Papalii, probably Klemmer) makes me excited. War chest. Me likey

he is so not a Roosters player … they turn him into their pet every time they play against him… compare him to JWH. Leniu and Crichton ..

Need to have players to buy though. Hopefully some decent workaholic forwards come on the market soon. Arriba

Yeah he’s had a few. But he’s copped some flack when incorrect. It’s a rumours thread and if that’s what he’s heard so be it. I believe it when the club announces it, but I also wanna hear the rumours, so I don’t get upset when people get it wrong. It’s like getting a horse tip, you want it bcoz you wanna win but it’s your fault if you go all in and it loses. He should just stick to the one name and stuff what others say, unless he really is just trolling?

I remember Misty was adamant that Luai was coming despite everyone thinking he was off to the Dogs. He got that one right.

I don't know why anyone would be excited about us having a 'war chest'. How many times have we had a war chest over the years and ended up with overpaid duds?

We backed out of a potential deal with Nelson, which I think shows we've matured.

If we were more mature, we would have negotiated someone for issah.

Fair enough mate, think you could be right.

Hopefully Richo is working on a Plan B, I have far more confidence in him than the previous administration.

Yeah but the issue is that you have to spend the cap under the rules (95% I believe is the figure).

At this stage there are not many players available, let alone players worth a big pay packet. We also have very limited spots so we would need to spend 2.5million on 3-4 players.

Even if we end up using that money to top up existing contracts to free up money at the back-end, those players will still be overpaid for that season and will only increase the quality gap between us and the rest of the competition.

Announcement delayed because of continuing negotiations regarding Bateman. Once the dollars and cents are sorted with Bateman, Stef staying will be announced

Bateman $ used to front load Stefano?
