Well anyone who’s sat on the hill with the sun setting knows what it used to be like.
The Wayne Pearce stand at the southern end used to be the main stand with dressing rooms underneath.
Percy’s used to be called the North Sydney hotel and was a very popular waterhole before, during and after the game ( seeing it’s about 50 paces from the main entrance).
New stadiums have the facilities but they don’t have that character like the old grounds. Henson Park, Pratten Park, Belmore, Redfern, Kogarah, Sydney Sports Grounc, North Sydney, Leichhardt.
All had their unique attractions . There I go again reminiscing. Good days.

League should be played at pratten park again atleast at Park footy level for the seniors or junior , but I think AFL took it.

I’m an old Pratten Park Magpie and love going to Leichhardt but also think the clubs long term future is in a first rate stadium at Campbelltown

Pratten park needs to be brought back to life and have league played there again in the lower grades. And ctown stadium for the first and 2nd grade.

Wallace actually for a season played out of the Penrith district with CarlingFord cougars in Balmain JRL... so he could return to play in his mates team... He was in a different division to his friends when he first got to St Mary's I'm assuming (not sure on his Penrith club)

Averillo ✅️
Brailey ✅️
Mann ✅️
Frizzell ❓️
Schiller ❓️

Solomone, extended.
Hopefully Sukkar & the Fainus, also extended.

Honestly, that's not a bad recruitment drive.

Benji's primary aim is recruiting quality depth. Had nothing 20-30 this season. I am happy with how this is working out. Some solid signings with experience. Schiller carved up at the Raiders. Would be immense if we could get that player out of him.

latest link: James Schiller via Sports Confidential

James Schiller could be on the move before next season despite having 12 months left on his contract at the Knights.

The Tigers are one club who have been linked with the 25-year-old who is free to leave Newcastle immediately if he secures a deal elsewhere.

Schiller arrived at Newcastle last season from Canberra and played 17 top grade games. But managed just one first grade game this year as he fell down the pecking order in a Newcastle side who marched towards the grand final.

Schiller impressed in NSW Cup, scoring 16 tries from 13 games for the Knights. The Tigers could be having a bit of a Knights reunion with Jayden Brailey and Kurt Mann already signed and Tyson Frizell expected to join the club.

I think these types of signings could be smart for with what the club needs in terms of footy iq, toughness, depth ect if they can stay injury free

Schiller would be good, stuck behind some quality backs at Newcastle. Strong and fast.

Our depth is improving and better competition for positions.

All or signings appear targeted which is good.

He would be good plays 3 positions tall fast makes good meters bring the ball back I would play him on a wing and try teaching one of the half's how to kick an attacking kick on the try line

Only problem the odd brain fart but alot less then Herbert
