It comes down to two things here. Both Galvin and Luai are run first halves. Their first instinct is to run rather than engage the line and create the gap for the second rower. They both like to skip across the field looking for lazy defenders or gaps for themselves. The second is the...

Would be a great signing if true. Some people don't rate him based on some of his performances, but he would be much better suited here than at Newcastle. He has suffered more than anyone from the poor halves play and instability at Newcastle. Attacking backrowers like KPP need a good quality...

Yeah i know Naden is close to Heath Mason, they both live down the south-west and car pool to training together. Naden and Staines are also close. All the poly boys are very close, and its evident. The young guys Galvin, TDS, Kit, Luke, Heath, Matamua, Saukuru, Feledy, Latu and Samuela are all...

Are you sure? Terrell did it the week before against the Eels. It's also popped up a few times in Terrell's vlogs.

I agree, I don't think its about wanting to start or wanting more minutes immediately. I personally think it's more to do with Tallyn wanting to understand what the plan with his development moving forward and how that fits in with Api re-signing. I assume hes asking questions like, if Api...

He's not, he is managed by Tartak who has a good relationship with the Tigers. He has Bird, Feledy, Makasini, Taupau-Moors, all 3 Fainus and Laulilii brothers all at the club. Most of those guys have signed or re-signed recently. TDS is very close with Galvin but I dont think that will impact...

The media would have you believe so because they love the drama and headlines. But realistically, no. It doesn’t matter what chairs, board, HBG do or want, the NRL will never ever allow the collapse of WT and re-instatement of Wests or Balmain. The NRL have the final say and will not issue a...

With both his parents in jail, Payne is now the sole care giver/guardian for two of his younger siblings. They are currently in school up in QLD so there is little to no chance Haas leaves Brisbane as the younger brothers are on scholarships and older brother is in a wheelchair.

Seyfarth was easily our worst... Apart from playing the whole game, he made a crucial error leading to the Mulitalo try, gave a set restart on the last tackle on our own line and struggled to make metres or impact with his runs. He had the slowest play the ball speed of all our starting...

3 - May 2 - Sione 1 - Pole AD, Turuva and Sam Fainu special mentions. Seyfarth and Luai need to pick up their game. Seyfarth especially was dreadful.

That 5th tackle set restart he gave away on our own line was moronic. Penalties and errors.

Seyfarth is having an absolute shocker, we really need another option at right back row.

This! Parramatta have the worst forward pack in the comp and he cant even get a look in... He's on 800k and even at a discounted rate, this isn't the standard we should be even be considering. He isn't better than anyone in our best 17, and even as a cup signing he would be on 500k+ (assuming...

I get that, but he was one of the better players in cup last year and they ran last... So what does that tell you? Of course we want the cup team to win, but the priority is for the NRL team to win and development of players is crucial to that. If we want guys like Kit to develop the way we...

He didn’t ever really seem like a prospect. He’s a good player but very limited with a low ceiling potential wise. Johannssen struggled with the physicality of NRL players. It was clear from pre season trials, he was getting dominated by younger guys. If you’re going to play as a middle forward...

Shibasaki would be a great get. Gun backrower with a huge future.

Not a loss. It baffled me how much people on the forum hyped him up and suggestions of him being an option for first grade. The trials showed it all, he doesn’t have the physically for first grade. He got man handled by 19-20 year olds and was getting pushed back on most of his hit ups...

If players were requesting a release you would assume they have offers elsewhere. I highly doubt 5 players and 5 player agents would be coordinated enough to have 5 seperate deals all set up with different clubs all within the same week…

Who were the 5 that were named?
