Gutho won’t be re-signed. Plus, probably a couple of others. It’s not always a conspiracy

Yr abosultely right
Time is definitely on his side
But hes gone backwards in past 12 months
...injuries..motivation..fit ..dunno
Thats my only point

Lack of quality ball.

Did Glassie Glassie get a run guys, missed the 2nd half.

We had him years ago and got rid of him because he was doing lines or something

Have ? He cant even negotiate yet

 

[mtd#2]

Liam Martin maybe? Talk he’s on the Sharks & Broncos radar

I like him, but how does he fit with what we have?

He doesn't know we have Samuela and KPP as long-term for the back row. we need better middles though and depth in 2nd row

think its wiser to spend the money on an extra quality 2nd rower than a prop in this modern times

 

[TigerBurnsy]

Gotta figure one of KPP or Samuela will depart end 27..hope we keep both
If Samuela wants to link up with Latu,there will be many suitors who need a edge backrower and a 6/7..starting with Panthers/Roosters and Storm
But Latu's resilience is definitely becoming a question mark

They may be moving sam back to the middle like he played in 2024

Sorry, “we should shoot him” instead as per your quote 🤡

The guys body lets him down consistently.

That would be good if we get a proven NRL standard wide running replacement [as rumoured]

He is one of Steelers' juniors. I hope they also get Colquhoun as well. I don't know how they let these two go.

 

[pawsandclaws1]

Crawley got the junior coaching director role

We're getting the right people into the critical positions.

 

[pawsandclaws1]

Yep was just watching the replay.
Boy that guy is injury prone.
Just not tough enough for my liking. But that’s just me.

Injuries happen in a contact sport, with Tedesco the best example. No one would question his toughness and getting injured has nothing to do with how tough people perceive you to be. He's a great little player and our great little player. We need to support him.

5 games off the bench, Doesn't make him a middle...
I'm over this invention that Sam Fainu is a middle.

I've included his 2023 summary as well, Where he played primarily 2nd row for his junior club.
He's played the last 4 seasons (at least) in the Back Row, and is starting there for us next year.

He's one of the better back rowers in the comp - Why there's so much noise around him.
Move him, Why - Because there's nothing else 'cool' to write here?

Neither did Jordan Miller

 

[Rock Hopper Steve]

I don't get moving Sam to the middle either, if he was to lose impact as he gets older then you would consider it, before the injury he was smashing it at 2nd row it makes no sense to weaken that position.

Forum talk at times becomes rugby league mad science.

Ill admit I have been one that is intrigued by Sam as a middle. I put it down to the fact we lack an enforcer there and Sam is the guy we have that tries to kill blokes. Im certain he would kill it in the middle. I reckon if we had a true enforcer in the middle no one would want to move Sam there. That being said, im only moving him there if his replacement is a gun. Definitely don't want to weaken that left edge spot.
