No way when. I knew they hated each other, but never knew they were combined.

I wouldn’t be expecting much given the retention drive we’ve been on. Can’t have it all.

Probably. What’s November 1 when it comes to PNG.
Going back to 1980, Manly raided the Wests Magpies and stole 3 of their best:
Manly infamously raided the Western Suburbs Magpies ahead of the 1980 season, signing three of their biggest stars: Les Boyd (second-row/prop), Ray Brown (hooker), and John Dorahy (fullback/centre).

What the Foxes did i dont think will be done by a team that much as outsiders for another 100 years at least. Like us in 05, it was a fairytale where the outsiders, the underdog got up.

Not sure if it's been discussed, but what does everyone think about bringing manese fainu in when he is released? Given our challenges at 9 this year with api out, it's gotta be a strong consideration on a base wage.
I saw him interviewed on ABC Sport radio and he didn’t seem to impressed with his PNG visit I felt

To be fair brooks had a great first game and then tapered off. Where as Latu has shown glimmers while not dominating so I actually believe he’s the opposite of brooks so far.
Maybe I just drank a lot more back then but that’s how I remember it

@GNR4LIFE you laughed at me for even suggesting this was a possibility
They will play as most back up from SOO anyway
The possibility goes both ways. Let’s not forget he was sentenced to 8 years and even if he’s allowed to be released in October he’s still on parole. His sentence isn’t over just because he’s allowed back into society. No doubt he made a big mistake and yes he will get a second chance in life, but the NRL might not allow him to register until the sentence period is up and if that’s the case it’ll be too late. If he messes up he goes straight back into prison, I'm not saying he will I hope for his sake he avoids going back inside should he be allowed out, and if by a miracle the NRL allow him to join and he does come to us I do think his brothers will help him. But if he does the club he’s with pays as well because they’ve lost a player and will have to look elsewhere. As cruel as it sounds, the NRL have a right to reject him because the club he’s signed with ultimately suffers should he mess up and get hauled back in. I hope that if he does be allowed back in, he doesn’t mess up.
