    The top 17 looks decent and capable of challenging almost any rival team if they are all playing close to the best of their abilities. I would hope it’s Latu at 7 and Doueihi at 6, even though Latu is probably better suited at 6 himself. The problem is still our depth. Halves depth looks decent...

    Adam Doueihi if playing 5/8 will not be our problem, but he will need to be playing extremely well to keep Javon Andrews out of the team. Our halves are fine, we just need added depth in other positions to ensure our halves have decent quality around them, even when we get a few injuries.

    OFFICIAL Jake Averillo #?

    So he has dominated NSW Cup as a 19 year old and you expect him to repeat it for another 2-3 years before you are satisfied he is ready to be a regular NRL player? That is an unrealistic expectation and it would not matter what club he is playing for. Yes he needs to improve his defence, what 19...

    He is 6”3 and close to 100kgs and will be turning 21y.o in 2027. If he cannot defend well in 2027, there would be no guarantee he will be defending any better in 2029 when 23y.o and I very much doubt he will be hanging around as a Wests Tigers player if we expect him to wait until 2029 before...

    As it currently stands I would agree. BUT having numerous key players missing injured or playing poorly supposedly due to playing injured for a large portion of the 2026 season, should mean quite a few players who were in this list throughout 2026, will be like new recruits in 2027. Then factor...

    It’s not rocket science like sone make it out to be. It’s up to the R&R team at each club to work out what positions they are looking at and what their budget is. Send that information to all the player managers and have private discussions with all the player managers they have a good...

    Miekekamp doesn’t control our recruitment and retention, does he? For the past couple of years, Benji has been given full control of our recruitment and retention with the assistance of Shannon Gallant, so I assume that stays the same while Benji is our coach. You are correct in saying we still...

    Very good signing for us, but he has always been inconsistent, so we need to recruit someone better than Herbert to keep the pressure on him.

    Pay the money to poach Josh Jackson from the Bulldogs. I can imagine him being no nonsense much like his playing style and he is a highly successful lower grade coach.

    LIVE GAME Week 1 Finals

    Similar to our men’s team, very minimal explosive speed across the team, therefore relying on overpowering the opposition and if that don’t work, they are out of ideas. Great season from the girls, but they will need to recruit some genuine explosive speed if they want to improve next season.

    I agree he is not a natural ball playing halfback, but what I think what he brings in ultra competitiveness and leadership overcomes his shortfalls. We already have 2 highly skilled halves in Latu and Javon Andrews, but will they have the right level of competitiveness and leadership between...

    No did he have a bad season? He is no longer available, so that boat has sailed. He will be playing in his best position of fullback next season and you will see him go to another level.

    I still find it unbelievable that the Cowboys will allow Tom Dearden out of his contract which I believe is until the end of 2029? IF they do allow him to get out of his contract, he is virtually the only player we should go all out for.
