Averillo only turning 26 in August but played a 130 games … has plenty of zip 👍

Speed is good but defence is needed more. Our edges have been an issue all year.

I don’t think we’ve had the same 1-5 all year, could be why

One thing i loved early in the year was our right side was a rock with the work KPP and AD were doing. While Averillo might has some shortcomings defensively, im confident playing outside those two will help a lot.

Early release?

supercoach · Sunday at 4:59 PM

The way the game is played today you have to have a couple of players with real speed and flair and Averillo fits into the group of players

Leck · Sunday at 5:03 PM

Jake is a quality centre, so I assume Starford is on the chopping block.

Some are saying that he will take Jarome's spot, but I just can't see it.

Fox sports reporting we have won the race to sign Avarillo

Perfect signing for us. Covers fullback too.

Just need a backup hooker now and one more wing/centre as cover along with Skelton

Re Toa

I could see PNG look for some center depth.
Maybe Perth, but PNG could throw a sweet deal. Although PNG may have way more experienced centers looking around.

I suspect Todd Payten is going to have problems keeping players.

Gonna have problems keeping himself ..

The same Manager Tartak that’s still under suspension yeah?

No your right mate that would make Tucker have more knowledge from his keyboard than Tartak would have over 1st grade footballers regardless if hes suspended or not

Would you care if he had a different last name?

Thats a stupid question were talking abt a NRL player that was a freak at his age. Made a mistake served his time should be given an opportunity at second chance of life.

Cowboys haven’t had a bye yet. Give them 4 points and they sit third.

I gave sound reasoning for my opinion and you just attacked me .
Get off your high horse.
If you want to argue the point, man up and present your thoughts.
What you’ve written is absolute dribble.

Not with you all you do is bag every player and coach that has anything to do with the club when its obvious you have no idea what your talking abt. I still havent bothered with all your Bateman garbage. Hows that worked out for you. If this could did and i get he has a fairly impossible task im sure thered be most fans not you accept hes obviously deserves a second chance. You made the same fuss abt Tiny.

Connor Watson signing with Drags in 2027 …

Would have been a small win for us to get him …but I would have taken it

Yeah I thought he might entertain coming over to us and spend a season with Jerome before they bunker down together in PNG

Averillo is a good centre and capable fill in at 5/8th or fullback.

I would not be signing him to play 6.

Katoa I dont think we'll get but he'd be an amazing buy if we did.

Maybe thats what got him supposedly over the line...the promise of a halves spot
Hope not hed be great for us in the centers

$700 to $800K for Averillo sounds a tad too much .. !!

Ha, it sounds like a load of balls to me, in Averillo's dreams maybe.

600k is about his value in 2026 money
Salaries seem to be going up about 10% a year these days

800k might look ok in 18 months time
