Your sarcasm is elite TS lol

Must have decided to step back from professional footy otherwise easily could have got a deal with Perth Bears feeder teams North Sydney or Brisbane Tigers to fight for a spot with Perth in ‘27.

We SHOULD! But a lot will come down to the structures implemented by new coach Tyrone McCarthy and being able to maintain a fairly rock solid core of players, both experience & youth. I think it will be the best season we've had in NSW Cup since the COVID-shortened 2021 season.

Yeah he has been training in the NRL squad since it resumed a fortnight ago. Has been in a few of the photos & reels. Needs to improve significantly in defence if wants to be retained beyond next season, was often a liability on the right edge in Flegg. Then was moved to the middle when...

Agree on those 3 with Saukuru as the rough diamond and another I'll throw in who had a breakout year in '25 as our Flegg POY is Josese Lanyon. When he & his brother came to the WT pathways early this season, his management posted that Josese was an initial 2-year deal so he is definitely in the...

It will be very exciting to watch the progress of Godinet, firstly in Cup then how quickly he warrants an NRL bench spot. Then there is Saukuru as well if he can realise his undoubted talent. A little further down the track Siotame Havea Jr as your lock & club captain ;) Maybe just maybe we...

Hetherington as a backrow option in the Storm system under Bellamy will be intriguing. Could be a revelation as you say JR or could replace NAS for penalties conceded lol

I agree he should earn it. I'm just predicting he will earn it very quickly.

Certainly has the tools & ability, I just like what he brings as our left-edge backrower especially forming a lethal edge with Luai & May/Makasini. I do like KPP as a backrower but just think he has what it takes to be an unorthodox but lethal middle plus Godinet may become too good to leave...

Soon enough we will be looking at how we fit Samuela Fainu, Kai Pearce-Paul & Phoenix Godinet into the backrow. Not in 2026 but very possible for 2027. My left-field prediction is an evolution of Kai Pearce-Paul into the middle in the future. His height, ungainly running style, offloading...

No manager will send a topline centre like Ramien to the Wests Tigers when we have May & Makasini as our projected long-term options and Starford on a multi-year deal. There is no guaranteed start.
