What the Storm roll out when they go to their back ups

Joash Papali'i in particular is a great get for Parra. Quite surprised he left to be honest. Connor Tracey is hardly a road block at fullback and he has Iongi to compete with at Parra who is a similar age.

Yeah I was thinking we could have gone for fun but then we've made our bed with Mason I think. Still Joash can play anywhere 1-6, a real Livewire

Long bow drawn....

I'm telling you! Danika & her boyfriend to the Tigers!

Do you get to choose where you sit for weddings normally? Or isn’t it usually table allocation

The club badly needs to free up roster spots, so when a kid with questionable potential gives you a sniff of a roster spot you take it

So much for being a development club

Those players are all NRL ready.

Richo would argue “we’re not paying him to play for Fiji”

He seemed to handle himself fine last weekend... Had a good game in limited time imo

I'm really starting to think that the WTs are really looking at moving Galvin to the backrow

On Bloke in a bar said he hates the wrestle and is thrilled to be learning from Luai. Doesn’t sound like he’s interested in being a pig.

Liam Knight is punching so far above his weight it's ridiculous

If we are looking at getting rid of Bateman we are extremely light on for back rowers

Agreed. Never been a fan of removing a strength to fix a weakness.

Believe Liam Knight is playing for Wyong Roos next year

Re Miller there’s no way he would get sacked for playing a test match, the RLPA would have us over a barrel in an instant. If he has been let go it’s mutual consent or he hasn’t met standards that would allow him to be sacked.

That argument doesn't seem to be within the current requirements of the rules - and couldn't be invoked it he was going to represent Australia.

If he was playing for Australia he would have been our starting prop all season.
Name me one player in the Australian squad who has played 30mins of an NRL season.
Heck expand that to the prime ministers 13.

Absolutely. I'm baffled how so many keep saying we need to sign middles. We have a stack of middles taking up roster spots and no backrowers. I'm all for getting rid of Bateman, but he needs to be replaced by and edge player. I think I'm gonna head butt the wall if someone says one more time we need another middle.

We need quality middles, we are not doing anything next season with an upgrade at prop.

Kid is a generational talent half. Leave him be

We need middles as well

We've gone forwards in our halves,but backwards in our entire pack
Kids aren't good enuff,and desperately needquality prop and backrower

Curious to know who people would bring back from that period and those who you wouldn’t sign

It was reported a while ago that after Miller debuted in 1st grade then went back down he had a massive ego and wouldn’t listen to the coaches. Imagine his ego now after playing international. I reckon they asked him to put the club first and spend the offseason getting himself ready. His attitude is probably why he’s been let go.

While I was impressed with a lot of the kids that appeared on Behind the Roar podcast, I remember not being totally impressed of Miller's attitude.

chammas reading my posts ? or is he feeding me intel 😂

looks like we have budged in that 200k , 300k now the suggested mark, if manly dont take him i would be very suprised

yes we will be paying for him to play elsewhere, but he will be toxic in the dressing room


agree we are short on backrowers
who is availble ?
