Isn’t every thread for everything. I mean you can get lost on any topic if you didn’t see the header at the top.

Ahh he is bigger than I thought!

It’s also the media pile on that adds to it. Let’s list the names of stars that were moved on from the Panthers mid contract! Lewis Jennings Gordon Coote Moylan DWZ RCG Blake Losing Gun Juniors; Burton Katoa Smith Forgot Ilongi. Also Liam Ison should get a mention.

On the left? Skelton or Makinhisi?

Yes I agree as well. It’s quite funny actually how critical people are getting. What I will say is. He is what 21? Kikau spent the first 3 1/2 years of his career not holding down an 80min starting backrower spot.

Were these promises made before our current staff/administration?

Still curious Phil what this was about?!?

Someone will be playing left centre when we’re all fit will it be a revitalised May or a rookie Makinsini?

We lacked last week Latu in the middle, the energy and options he brings, by giving someone senior the organising responsibility we can unburden his game and let him play with more freedom in the link role through the middle until he is ready whenever that may be. Otherwise Latu would remain on...

I have a feeling with Skelton mentioning that Latu will line up on the left this week that we will be keeping Doueihi in the halves going forwards. Just a hunch.

You got me, that’s a horse part.

He is 2 years older.

It’s not second year syndrome. He had a break out year with Manly and followed that up last year. This is definitely down to the changes in the spine and how best to use him. Luai used to have Kikau outside him; is Sam similar but younger I actually think he is. he isn’t your Olakakoatu tackle...

he did yes, must of been the moment Ivan realised he isn’t an 80min hooker.

I think we shift too much for our backrowers to be damaging, just my opinion. I’ve noticed the raiders bring their centres back in through the 3 man where most teams bring their backrowers through. They don’t feel the need to play with width and play a more compressed power game, I think we need...

Glad you asked, Mitch Kenny played the games that Api wasn’t available for as most back ups do. In the 2022 season from the mid way point of the year onwards he started to get more game time playing a combination of Hooker and lock.

Yeah I bet Mason drops it at training as well.

Well I watch every game every week. But I can’t think back that far, I guess you cannot either. So I checked his minutes for each game through the 2020, 2021, 2022 seasons at Penrith. As I said, he was the preferred starting hooker and played predominantly 80mins in 2020 and 2021. And also gave...

Is it a coincidence that the blow up happens the moment he signs with Issac?

Who knows maybe it was intentional as wasn’t it Newcastle that didn’t agree to the loan deal, he might of needed to extend the option to other clubs to find other club interested in a loan option? It does sound interesting though, they were looking for a loan deal for the rest of the year or...
