And how well has signing other team's discards gone for us in the past, bloody waste of a top 30 spot but have no idea who we can add.

Even if Souths paid for us to take Keppie like we are supposedly paying for them to take Bud ..I still wouldn’t want him

As someone who only sometimes sees first grade I'd take him. I was hoping for Nathan Brown and pissing off Bird.
Some news even non-signing news from the club would be nice. Richo should get on a podcast again.

Unless I’m missing a post, all that’s been said is Souths are letting him go, which inevitably leads to someone suggesting we make a play. I don’t think there is a link, nor should there be.

It's just forum talk mate no solid media links that I have witnessed, why would we want him we already have someone to give away penalties and end up in the sin bin.
I'm not going to name him, people will think I'm picking on him.

Souths fans are begging for someone to take him off their hands next season

Well stuff them, let him go somewhere else, anywhere but here we don't need any more discipline liabilities, let him stink up some other outfit.

Exactly. It is purely forum speculation. There is no way in the world we recruit Keppie. Offers nothing we don’t already have as depth. Hope the Rabbits get stuck with his contract.

Can't sign enough of them I want prop depth like Cronulla

Wouldn't be good if they have to move him on to fit in Fifita, might account for their supporter's angst, let them stew pun intended.

Keppie is purely speculation based on a report about Souths potentially moving him on.
He's not a great player.
But he is a massive unit. With over 100 games at NRL level. Who averages 85m a game.
Taller than all but Sam Fainu, bigger than all but Royce Hunt. In a team that gets bullied far too often.
If he was a part of our forward mix, I'm ok with it. A few intimidating big bodies in the squad just makes the opposition defence take a peek.

Sounds like Averillo is off to Super League. Why aren't we speaking with him!?
Apparently they wanna moven him on to fit in Kamakamica

And block the pathway for Makasini?
He wouldn’t be blocking Makasin as he has mainly played right centre, Makasini has always played on the left.
It’s quite clear that Benji and Richo are happy with To’a as our right centre, so we will have to see how that works out for us in 2026.
When you consider Averillo has genuine speed that we are lacking, is also a very good back up fullback when required and is also a handy goal kicking option, you would think we would be knocking the door down to sign him.
