Yea true.

James Roberts (rugby league) - Wikipedia

I looked him up and he went dry try wise at Souths.


Still Madge brought him on. Yes Madge was handed Cleary's glorious signings and pics, but he got to roll the dice with BJ and Roberts and totally fluffed it.

He just got done again 4 possession & stolen property.
Only weed and $1,000 cash but sad news 4 the jet

3rd place Miss Merewether Beach. Newton dumped her to “focus on footy”. She went on to become Miss Universe.

less than .3 gram which has street value of maybe $10.

Yes you get a slap on the wrist.

It's the alleged stolen goods which is the issue.

So... have we signed Brian To'o yet?

Why would you be punished for taking medicine? haha

Prisons would be at capacity if they took a hard stance on weed.

 

[Bigscreentv]

He just said "at the time of signing" and also said "he's shown more since then".

God some people are slow.

True, but I think he proved it before then too with performances without Cleary and Samoa. Prior to signing he had a better win rate than Cleary without him.

 

[Mighty_Tiger]

His playing footy isn't the problem.

His objecting to Benji and driving the team to crap is. .. I don't believe Benji, Heighington or Hodges will control him.

I thought we had a no Richard Head policy? It's not if he goes doing crazy XYZ that's the problem, it's that he will take a stack of Tigers team mates with him.


Although. There is one person on the team who may be able to control him. Luai, that I will give you.

Where is him not being able to be controlled coming from?

The Roosters haven’t said anything and the journalist who posted his open interview months ago has already said he didn’t leave the Roosters due to performance or issues at the club. He has also taken to shutting down the rumors on facebook as well. He certainly wasn’t the chief off field organizer of fun times at the Roosters either.

Do the maths. He doesn’t play 27 games for Robbo if he was a problem / disruptive at training or on game day especially with the stacked forward pack they had this season.

They were no worse signings than most of our others over the last decade. And like most of those signings, there was plenty of enthusiasm about them when they were announced.

Gosh getting To'o and May would transform this squad. Now just need Bateman to piss off and sign a backrower.

To be fair the jet was on a budget contract and when he wasn’t injured he was one of the better backs on the field
So he was probably equal value to output

Not too sure if people remember but I posted on here not too long ago that the club would be favourites to sign Taylan May whenever he’d be deemed registered by the NRL.

I have it on pretty good authority the club are going extremely hard for Terrell and will make it clear they have plans to potentially sign his brother too during negotiations.

MSN article on May.

www.msn.com

“Indeed, such has been May’s rise that he played all 27 games for the Roosters this season, including an 80-minute performance at prop. If he wasn’t fully committed to rugby league, he wouldn’t have embarked on an off-season tour to England, to represent Samoa, while his wife was pregnant. He wouldn’t have been crowned the Rugby League Players’ Association inaugural impact player of the year if he wasn’t committed.”

And how someone mentioned he fits benji’s mantra of a balance between footy and life, think May could thrive here

100% he would be a massive uplift for us.

Luai will be able to assist manage both of them.

That will be a big draw card for Terrell.

As said previously by a lot of people this year we land Terrel, Kobe & Sione we would be happy.

2026 we will be huge in the market with 10 plus spots available.

Taylan can definitely have one of those.

Thanks @teddy23

What makes us favourites in the first place? Luai connection?

Disappointed me.

Thought he was a classy centre before he came to us. Once here seemed small.

Getting same feeling with Olam.

Our side still looks too small.
