Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

The constant talk around Benji is becoming exhausting.

Yeah you’re right…. Why discuss season 2024? That is old news.

 

[Kelce68]

Taylan is a dead shit

Can play though.

 

[Lestronge]

Anyone got any serious guesses on who the 5 might be. Is it rude to nickname them the fat 5?

They’re all fringe - players who are under 22-23 years old . None of the big names are back yet , as far as I know .

Geez the Benji and Richo bagging is next level insane. Richo is one of the great NRL CEO's fact. Benji is a rookie coach who has had one full NRL season, news flash he wasn't the head coach in 2023 as some would have you believe. Benji has promoted exciting juniors who will lead us forward, heavily involved in Luai coming. The roster he has had to work with for the majority of the season was KOE and youngsters, no super coach would've done better.

You sound like you want to take over from your dad. Benji promised us a Wayne Bennett, man managing, non smiling, protégé.
what we have got is no improvement in the points differential and again another season of our best players leaving.

He looked unfit in his last game.

Good yarn on Jaxson Rahme! A couple of take-outs from this ...

He's referred to as a lock/middle so the club must see him as that despite playing a bit of edge for the Knights last season in NSW Cup.

His train & trial contract is just for the pre-season. He has to earn being re-signed for the full season. I wonder if that is the same for all the T&Ts we have. Certainly would motivate them to rip in during pre-season to make a full season T&T.

Hmm I wonder if this sudden rash of breach notices is related to our lack of top 30 spots. If I was Bud Sullivan I’d be sleeping at Concord just to make sure I’m never late for training.

Moses Suli used sleep out in the park, didn't work out all that well for him. 🤣

Thought he was on a dev contract?

Sounds like a good addition to our wider squad. With 2 season of Cup under his belt at the age of 20, he will most likely be ready for a call up sooner (although won't be eligible until rd 10) than some of our Top 30 members.

Seems like we are making a few good moves to get more out of players in the pre-season with them working for extended contracts and I like the fact 5 players got breach notices for not meeting standards.

Inner West pharmacies completely sold out of Ozempic. Mounjaro and Saxenda over past week.

Richo's got them worried. 🤣

Anyone else had a few issues with the website recently? Mainly today

 

[rugbygoated]

With Luai already speaking to Tyrell May about a move to the Tigers and May reportedly impressed by the meeting yesterday, don’t be surprised to see Taylan here as well🔥👀

No way. He's bad for the culture, as talented as he is

 

[rugbygoated]

Bullshit. Stop making excuses.
Benji has been poor so far.
These breaches if real are a good step forward. Hope he keeps moving in that direction.

Bulldogs did the exact same last year with some players. Jackson Topine and RFM told to leave as they didn't like the training. Then dogs improve instantly. Standards shifting throughout the club is the start of change

Don't worry. Pre-season sledging is always exhausting.

 

[SeanT]

Anyone know who the 5 are?

only/just before you posted this,out for all of 4 seconds

 

[Kaito]

I hope they are

How's a wager

But we need names. We need someone to rubbish. Some one to poke fun at. Whatever makes us feel better than Barry, Bob and Beryl. We need to take the distraction of our own monotonous dull every day lives.
