you would still anticipate that our Junior Reps would fill out some of those squads. in years gone by we’ve had 15+ blokes in the 18s to watch across the carnival.

the Football Department would leave the door open for Averillo to ‘trial’ at 6 after Luai without committing to it. Javon for mine is the guy there but competition for spots is never a bad thing. as for Latu, I think the plan is for him to still be the long term 7, it’s just what that looks...

live now on WTTV

a lot of blokes have ratchets. they’re more commonplace nowadays than what they once were. means a lot of cap is taken up before it even increases.

just want a strong side with the middle rotation in the best shape it can be mate, that’s all. Tino’s response on Sunday showed great character and Roberts is the next man up as far as left edge backrowers are concerned for mine. he’s raw and probably still a month off a debut but he was...

1. Mason 2. Tavana 3. Turuva 4. May 5. Laulili’i 6. Luai 7. Madden 8. May 9. L. Fainu 10. Pole 11. Roberts 12. Pearce-Paul 13. Twal 14. Murray 15. Hunt 16. Si. Fainu 17. Seyfarth 18. Skelton 19. Andrews

Tito next please Shaun.

Shane Richardson knew nothing about Benji and WT’s culture and look what he helped us build. there were plenty of robust discussions and differences between those two along the way that helped create what we’re looking at currently. Pat is going to be Benji’s yes man and I don’t like that.

the issue with Richards as DoF is not that he doesn’t understand how a Football Department works, but that it’s yet another Marshall-aligned appointment. the same as Gallant and Bronson, the same as Bomber, Hodgo and Heighington. how is he going to be tested, challenged and improve on things...

this will be Shaun Mielekamp and Shannon Gallant's biggest tests of their tenures at Wests Tigers. retain this group going to free agency and the premiership window remains open, lose the majority and it becomes a flash in the pan. going to be a very interesting next few weeks.

I'm really gonna miss him.

agree on missing Kit. he was really coming into his own last year. no word on Elijah mate sorry.

I think the biggest issue is that Geyer's the play one guy and Bunty's play two when it should be the other way round. Geyer is not that bloke at all for mine. we hear all this chat in the preseason about Bunty being a leader, but he's not even leading from the front in Cup, let alone first...

I'm curious to see where he's at come end of season. club's being extremely patient with him. very little exposure to Cup at this point.

you reckon he leaned into it? he looked awkward as to me
