Actually, no. Long time Balmain fan. But, while I understand the bagging of the club direction over the years, it's more an issue that the club is SO reliant on HBG & not in a position to strengthen it's coffers in other avenues that really is at the core of things. The WESTS TIGERS board, the...

Is it a safe assumption that not ALL the bad we hear is accurate, just as not ALL the good we hear is 100% accurate too? Regardless of how you feel about it, I think the club is better off with the support of HBG than without it. Could we use additional support & leadership? Sure. But HBG has...

Regardless of the top side additions going forward, it's equally important that the KOE squad offers a proper path for development of the young players while offering some valuable experienced players to help with their learning. Outside of the promising juniors coming though (Heywood, Godinet...

It's basically vodka mixed with E10... Twally with the jokes.

If he joins Channel 9, does he get a character redemption arc the same way a new born Roosters player does?

Madden is indeed Gaelic, Irish historically & in the old tongue refers to "Dog". But, Jock isn't the lone Scottish Madden. Richard Madden, who played Robb Stark in Game of Thrones is a Scottish Madden. There might be one or two others I guess..

Pretty sure the MOM gets the Trent Runciman Medal

I reckon we win half

Not that explaining it will make it any better for some, but... Afoa adds that big body that runs off the back fence. What Hunt is supposed to be. What Pole might become. It strengthens our depth in the rotation, adds a style we don't have fulfilled & doesn't block a path for younger players...

Someone said 4 spots remaining for next season? Bunty Afoa Harrison Hassett Raymond Faitala Mariner Freddie Lussick There are players I prefer, but this covers a lot of holes.

1. Bula 2. Turuva 3. To'a 4. Taylan May 5. Skelton 6. Luai 7. Latu Fainu 13. Doueihi 12. El Zakhem 11. Seyfarth 10. Twal 9. Koroisau 8. Terrell May 14. Pole 15. Sione Fainu 16. Royce Hunt 17. Sukkar

Add Freddie Lussick for versatility

Bunty Afoa, Raymond Faitala Mariner...both could add something to the squad.

Roosters are not the the pack they used to be. For intimidation- they are way better. But skills? I don't think they are any better overall than we are.

Forward packs I think we are better than? Remembering that I'm disclosing that we lack that intimidation factor, based on ability, I'd probably have our pack ahead of Souths, Parra, Knights, Dragons, Roosters & Sea Eagles. That's on skills & talent. But there are players from each club that I...
