Like it or not Mason is our best option... API is a hooker and we need him at 9, Douhei just kills our attacking flows,. Mason is a ball runner... that's all he needs to do apart from defend well

Mason is a football player,
I’m sure he will give his all what ever position he plays,
I for one have been waiting and wanting to see him get a start in the halves since the beginning of this year
With his speed of the mark he could create some good attacking options especially in the last 10 minutes of each half.
 
Morrin and KPP are realistic targets. Seyfarth and next weakest link to koe and depth.... huge upgrade.
Replacing AD next biggest priority.
Finally a Reynolds type for a year, for kicking alone, would give us a much better chance of winning more games. Latu my guy long term but much easier to come into a winning team at 21 than a crap team at 20.

People underestimate the effects of being out of an NRL system can have on your ability and fitness. Once he signs for someone, it'll be months before he is even close to first grade. He didn't set the world alight playing centre at Penrith either, and he was playing outside peak Luai and inside To'o. Anything good he has done was on the wing.

Could not agree with you more on this one.
Giving the game away and then thinking you will come back the same player is near unlikely in any grade let alone NRL.
And got to remember every playing in that Penrith side he was in looked good,
I don’t see where all the wraps people on here are giving him are coming from.

Think Morrin would make a great option for lock

Off contract, floating between reserve grade and first grade when there is injuries.

Looks like he loves it @ the dogs and they love him... but they probably loved Sexton & Reedo too and look how that's going.
 
Just a strong rumour doing the rounds Mason is slotting in for Bratfink this weekend.

I know hes unfancied, but its the biggest game of his career by far and as @Tucker says our games at North Queensland are often historic and the eyes of the league will be upon him.

We talk a lot about our beloved Latu and any number of import halves, but only the hardest heart would not wish him the blue skies. A formidable and daunting opportunity for Heath to step up and claim the number as his own.

Dont die wondering Heath, give it everything young mate. Team First.

Probably still waiting to be paid going by the theme of part of the latest pod

Seems we still are operating much like we were during Anastas time here

Interesting stuff

That’s disappointing to hear but no surprise. Richo has been banging on about finances since he started. The 165K transfer fee probably pays a few bills.
 
I think Tucker should get one of his staff to drive him to the game up yonder because hell still be suffering from the hangover caused by Lauries "team of the great unwashed and unwanted".

The worst nsw side in living memory are going to destroy Queensland and everything the feral scum sucking bogans stand for.

It wouldnt surprise me if Bratfink is a closet queenslander. Finds a birth certficate -born in Yorkeys Knob Base Hospital.

Taylan May isn't a first grader. He hasn't played 50 games and he hasn't been able to contribute to a full campaign of first grade football because he's got himself arrested at least once every year since 2021. We are already fully stocked on yesterdaysfuture former Penrith outside backs. People here talking as if he'll just slot in and ice games for us home and away. Not a chance. There is nothing he's going to add that to any supposed finals push that will outclass Staines or Naden.

We need experience and consistency. Less mistakes, not raw talent. Valentine Holmes would have been a perfect addition to our side. I hope we eventually get something like that soon. Like a 29 year old Josh Morris type player.

I like that nothing is leaking from our club and Richo isn't rushing into blowing the war chest, as is our usual tradition.

Stopped reading after the first sentence.

Should fit right into the Tigers team.

This is a great NSW side with heaps of points in it. Who are you trying to fool? Lol
 
the Taylan May stuff is interesting . Whilst I agree we should snap him up if he’s asking for minimum wage / average wage . I’m completely against giving a guy who’s only reason for not getting convicted for bashing his wife is she didn’t turn up to give evidence , and had to be convinced to go into rehabilitation as well as a psych ward , and he wants his value from 2023 .
That’s got to be the riskiest contract ever . And I don’t think we are that desperate . A 1 and a half year deal on a low value contract has to be the only thing we offer .
It would simply be took risky to offer anything above 250k .

A hallmark of Ciraldos coaching was his extreme fitness regime. And of course, the Panthers had some remarkable game conditioning and recovery people. I think it was gf 2, a huge chunk of their side were injured.

Latu and Skelton are enormous assetts if we can keep them fit, strong and working in combinations.

Ive got this fear they will get injured again way too early to make an impact. For me, its kind of nail biting.

Maybe im over-reading it, typical wt fan problem. Theres no peace!!!

My argument is that he stood to benefit and indeed he did so.

If that's the argument you are indeed correct.

But you mentioned Galvin's claims not being too serious. I'm starting to suspect they're not about any social media posts from colleagues.... I think its a fair chance Galvin's camp are describing disciplinary measures from coaches at the club, that are watched by other first graders, similar to what is described in the guardian article I posted. Galvin was made to vomit from disciplinary measures once if I recall. Those kinds of things are easy to frivolously object to by an Agent like Moses, and easily upheld in the court of Rugby League public opinion.

Next we'll have Benji's body language in front of Bula up for dispute.
