Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

With all our concern about the release of Onitoni Large, I thought I'd have a crack at producing a pathways depth chart for each position. See thread ...

Juniors - Pathways General Discussion

Interesting he is their lock? We usually have him as a Prop. But we do tend to play lightweight workers out of position----props? Not sure of our thinking in this regard in their development? Kohan was always a lock and played lock for Pat's Fairfield (before moving to Westfields) and Cabra.

Just noticed that fox and the nrl , are not showing the NSW CUP live on Sunday , but they are doing the NRLW games , I don’t mind the females playing but this just throwing the blokes out the window is wrong , we watched must games early in the season , it’s good to watch players coming through the grades , but they just get

It's on 9now right now, live

What's the latest on pole and sione faiunu have they said they want to go on the open market? Or are we negotiating in the background?

Agree. Sign of the times unfortunately.

I don't mind the odd nrlw game (if Isabel Kelly is playing!), but why not show both?

Watching nsw cup there’s a prop there that we should have a crack at , Hamlin - uele, he’s 29 played 30 minutes straight, hit it up hard and worked really hard in defence, he is way down the sharks pecking order , he would be better as a starter than hunt

Ah @user118245 ...I remember when you first joined the forum. Seems like only a week ago... 🤣

You will never believe what I’m about to say 🤣

Here's a backrower I hope we're looking at
Jacob Laban – another 2024 NRL debutant – claimed the other spot in the back-row. He is the sole TOTY representative from the fourth-placed Warriors, producing seven tries and leading his position for tackle-busts (65), while averaging 30 tackles and 109 run metres.

The face doesn’t make it look like they’re catching a nuclear bomb. Mason just seemed scared under the high ball

That is just confidence and experience, he has plenty of heart, so courage is not the problem IMO

And each year Benji's experience will grow.

As a few others on here have already said I believe Joey Walsh is the plan for half back. Captain for the the under 20’s Australian Union team earlier this year & was in the roosters Jnr system. If that doesn’t work out I’d say you are on the money tho, long way off before needing to worry about any of that thankfully

Roosters like NRL ready players NOW...so theyll be happy for the young local with a rugby pedigree (cough) to compete for the 7 slot,but if Latu fulfills his promise on the field next year at WTs..he will DEFINITELY be a target
Chad Townsend aint a long term plan..

 

[clontarfkid]

And each year Benji's experience will grow.

The question mark is whether Benjis growing "experience" will actually translate to learning..and results??
Fiji holiday may still be calling...?

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

They both seem to be growing at the same time. Uncanny.

He's had a lot of injury issues.

He looked great today
