Broncos are tabling Barnett around $750k. He’s older and coming off an ACL. But they’re probably similar in ability for numbers. $750-$850 tops. Higher end for a struggling side.
May is probably in that third tier front rower argument.
Thanks mate. Probably a family move. Thought we might’ve kept him on a cup contract after breaking into the side last year. No huge loss as I think he was outside a Top 30, but he showed some promise last year. Just seemed to vanish over the off-season.
Good hit out for the young guys and for a first trial they all looked really cohesive after the first 20.
Makasini will be a star. Needs a long term deal. Reminds me so much of a young Stephen Chrichton.
I don’t see what the fuss is with keeping Toa in the side. Plays one blinder a year and...
Joel Caine made some brilliant points today. Can’t post for some reason but worth the search. He gets it. Line in the sand - WT only, no Balmain, no Wests. Time to move on.
I met Dennis Burgess at a personal level nearly 20 years ago. We were quite active in his local band comps and were...
Nice work man. You’ll probably get some weeds coming through on the bare patches for a while. Not much you can do until the canopy fills out. If you’re looking for a really good value for money granular fertiliser. Check out 2Spec Elevate (not at Bunnings). 4-5x applications per year is all...
Roosters stripped of points for gambling/nose beer golf day scandal.
Tigers beat Canberra
Tigers beat Titans
Everyone else loses. Tigers make the 8?
So you’re telling me there’s a chance?
*crying in corner about actual reality
Stone is an absolute tough nut. He’s got that McInnes/Finucane type DNA about him. No regard for his own body and just a worker. That Donoghue kid is one to watch too.
Wouldn’t mind Trai Fuller as a backup fullback for Bula either. Gives 100%
I think today showed we’re only a 2-3 decent signings away from being a genuine top 8 side. We seem to have the fight in us now and it’s pretty incredible to see the improvements guys like Luai, Turuva and the May brothers have brought to us this year.
We just need to get that last bit of...
If you ever need to chat mate send me a pm. Life throws us curveballs but you’re never alone and I know there’s a lot of people here who would be willing to help however they can. Please reach out mate if you ever need it.
Maybe this is what he was referencing with the comment asking the big boss Richo. Maybe Richo is saying if you sign with Isaac any future deal is off the table and they don’t want a bar of him. Just a thought.
Didn’t seem happy in the interview today. Would really like to see him nail the lock spot. I’ve thought he could do well there for a long time. Big body and straightens the attack. Question mark has always been if he can handle the defence and hogging the ball, but he’s really improved that...
Money talks.
Api’s only got a few years. Haywood is still a massive question mark. Hope is a cup player. I don’t think we can go into 2026 without another quality hooker/utility. A hooker that covers the entire backline really well and could also handle lock is pretty valuable.
It’s pretty...
