Bit of drama with the Womens side... some poor girls have found out they're leaving the club through the farewell post. Amateur hour again.

The girls have liked comments on Instagram of their family ripping into the club basically confirming it. The post has since been deleted. Just a shit show all round.

To be fair to Turuva he massively exceeded my expectations of him when playing at centre early in the season. Overall though I tend to agree he wasnt great. Not sure if underwhelming is the word id use as I've been on the overpaid and overrated opinion since he was signed, so didn't expect much more than he produced. I copped it for labelling him as such early days. Nice to see some others agreeing.

Tureva was a great finisher last season..exceeded expetation when confronted by difficult situations and still crossed the line
Not so great this year,but played a lot at FB and centre..and carrying injuries
Great clubman and character
Asset to the team

Definitely wld not write him off

He does his best and tries hard with his yardage carries, but he simply doesn’t have the right physical attributes to be an elite player.
He is short, not a good vertical leaper, not overly confident in the air, not real quick off the mark, not quick over a long distance and very rarely makes a line break.
To make matters worse it looks like we are again content to just hand him an NRL jersey every week and not sign any genuine competition for his right wing spot.
Mark us down to once again be the most boring and predictable team and score the least points in the NRL in 2027.

I agree. His defence is suspect and often goes very low but cannot hang on to the attacker. Good out of yardage and good finisher close to the line. If Schiller is not an option now, gee I hope we are still in talks with Seb Kris on a subsidised contract. Only option I think that is possible for '27 with decent experience on that right side.

I wasn't impressed with Hayward when he came on to replace Api in the Fiji game. Defended well but very stocky and NO ZIP from Dummy half. I expected more from what has been posted on here.
IMO didn't look like the next best hooker to be anointed for WT. Fingers crossed I got it wrong BUT?
What I did like is the fitness level of Manase Fainu in the photo with Latu. I see ZIP there.
And appears to have some fire in the belly to get it done with his brothers. Fingers crossed there.

I don’t think Seb Kris is an option for us because I reckon he would be wanting 400k per season and he would not be content unless he is a guaranteed starter.

If he hadn’t debuted on the end of that Panthers backline, there wouldn’t be the amount of fanfare that there is. It definitely catapulted him.

Do you even stop and think what it took to debut on the end of that panthers backline ? Plenty of young players wanted that spot but he got it !! Must have shown something to someone that led to them giving him the debut ! He was not just plucked off the street or won a bloody sweepstakes FFS 🤯. SMDH
