Even though i hate Souffs i would say the same about their supporters as well,their core supporters are as loyal and diehard as we are

Yeah and my point is that most of our fans are great too. A lot of souths fans are as passionate as they come, even now when they are struggling. Penrith has a lot of good loyal supporters but also a lot of new bandwagons recently. Bulldogs are the worst. They're arrogant in the few times they are successful and the comp is 'not going well' when they're winning. Even though I hate broncos and QLD teams (storm included) in general, it's good for the game when they're doing well. Broncos at suncorp in good form is always good for the competition. Bulldogs fans are abusive as it gets, and cry racism whenever you criticise their fanbase. If only they were consistent with the classist remarks directed at souths and penrith fans

Yeah will be interesting who we target.

Origin level middle would be ideal. Most are locked up long term.

Backs are a lock & junior depth.

Spine sorted.

Xavier Williamson on a generous deal? But not over the top.

November 1 could make our 2025 season with signing for 2026 swaying players also.

Luai & Galvin would have to a draw card.

November 1 it would be remiss of us not to have a crack at Kotoni Staggs & Leo Thompson, and ask the question of Brian To'o again ... and maybe try to lure one of England's best props Matty Lees or Tyler Dupree.
 
Recruitment has been good, with Tigers identifying areas of need.

In the recent signings of Hunt and Hetherington, they must of identified a lack of fringe first graders in the top 30.

I thought that was one area we had well covered.

Matamua, Sukkar, Tumeth, Toa, Naden, Sullivan, Bateman, Faatape will/should be the players tapped on the shoulder to leave. That will free up space for us to have some youngsters in our squad but not too many, sign some new decent players, upgrade Sione etc

That’s 8 players plus sezer that’s 9 .
But will Richo have the balls to send them packing , the club got it so wrong giving untried kids a spot , we need to fill our roster with hard nosed working players , just like the dogs have done

Faagutu is top 30 next year....

But there's also no way they'd want any of our players. They have half a dozen props as good as Chris.

They might have a half dozen props as good as Faagutu, but they have no depth in the lock forward position after Carrigan and there was a reason why he was classed as one of the best lock forwards in QLD
 
Royce hunt will turn out to be our biggest flop since bateman and sullivan lol.

3 years was minimum 1 too many.

he'll be gassed by the end of the nxt year and probably playing reserves during the year bc of fitness and weight issues.

I am happy to out $100 bet on it if anyone wants it.

and just so people dont think im being negative -- im very happy with skelton, luai and turuva. Very unhappy with Bird, and Royce.... would have been very happy with Cory... and am non-fussed about Kobe, at least he will add some defense around the ruck. Would be very happy with RCG too

If he is our number 1 prop we are in trouble

If you can get 1 or 2 more hard working, effort guys around him it will be a good buy

Biggest flop in history.... I'm happy to take you up on it, been waiting for someone to bet with me on the forum.
Do you ever get to leichardt games?
At what point do we determine flop status, year 1, 2 or 3? I think we do a poll on the forum for the final decision?
 
Fullback depth covered by Mason and lualli ? Unfortunately hobbits with poor hands-are miles away from fullback cover given the way the game is played today

That makes sense. He isnt an NRL level half by any means currently.

Which means there’s a printing error as to the competition of his destination club.

Where is Kobe?

Rooster junior says he’s solid.

Want that “ Kobe signs” membership email, instead of flogging 2024 unsold spoon bowl merch.

New sponsor due too.
