AD should be given a contract. We need bulk him up a bit play him 13. I think he could be very good. His D has improved this year. Just think of AD, JL and LF ball playing running threats could really open up attack. Yes he signed with the 😈 but I think worth signing.

Just dreaming about our future 1-7🤔
Bulla
Turuva
Makasini
May
Skeleton
Luai
Fainu

That’s not a dream
That’ll be reality soon

Just wanted to say it’s the first time in NRL history where a set of 3 brothers has scored in one game 🐯 love the fainu’s

Latu’s words regarding Benji was also admirable

I think Toa is in a future 1-7 just not sure if May takes a wing spot or we don't rush Makasini - see how they all go anyway

Is Tito a better FB than Bula?... his second half was brilliant

I think coming in and playing a decent game at fullback is different to stringing together a run of really consistent games there, where teams can do a little more homework. Bula is our no.1 but Turuva may have played himself into the back up role.

TINO TAVANA sign him up now Richo!

This kid (21yo) just secured us a come-from-behind win in Flegg with a try in the last minute & converted after the siren from 10m in!

This kid has x-factor, aerial ability and vertical leap to rival Bula, good speed and anticipation (scored a 90m intercept try on the right wing early). Played the final 10 mins at fullback and looked dangerous every touch.

Not just one game either, he's been very good at right wing in every game he's played this season. Got a taste of NRL in the pre-season and looked like he belonged then. Trained with NSW Cup a bit in the pre-season too so the club does rate him.

If we want x-factor and a player capable of the mercurial, he's right here at the club. Just needs to get a bit stronger in the body so he can stick some contact in defence but it's not too bad, nothing that a pre-season or 2 in the gym & wrestling mat can't improve.

We have development spots available, one needs to go to him if we're fair dinkum! C'mon Richo!

Looking at the roster, we could well be looking for a FB for the Magpies next year.

A win across 3 grades how good ! Richo is cooking quietly 🔥

For a depleted side we showed some real fight.

We the people really needed that win.

Yeah but at what price? He finally seems to be trusting his body again but also looks like a bloke playing for his contract. I'd love him to stay as in my opinion with a fully fit squad he is the perfect 14, I doubt that is what he wants however. 500k max.

Yeah I am with you. But one of our issues is many of the guys people love are on contracts here that are over inflated (EG - Twal). Doueihi has a bit to offer, and id pay whatever market value is. For his general weekly output over the season he is overpaid right now and has been for the 5 years hes been here. He shouldn't make our top 13 next year if fully fit (unless he goes to 13 which is unlikely), so for a bench player, ideally no more than 400.

Skelton sucks

Luckily he’s only on a minimum contract

“SHOOSH

Which struggling NRL club has been making discreet inquiries around the future of Maroons forward Tino Fa’asuamaleaui at the Gold Coast Titans. Tino has a get-out clause that comes into effect in November.”

This better be us

Probably Pawwa or souffs would be my guess as both clubs are desperate for FG forwards

idk why this hasn’t been more talked about , considering how much the media goes on about luai’s . Tino would be welcomed at any club

I think he’s most at risk of losing his spot in the backline for sure

Do we fit the description? Struggling club?

Couldn’t understand everyone losing their shit at the prospect of signing Fifita. Tino is the one to go after.

Only other club I could see it being would be Saints.
