Man that's awesome. Put the club stuff aside. Two players turning up to honour their bro.

Even with KPP coming in, you really see how the Second row has a major gap. We seem to have Prop covered to a degree. Although May really is overused and another Origin level prop would go a long way. If Bird is going, we are really going to need a utility. Looking at the squad, only Mason...

Agreed, (BTW you have to watch the video to 3 minutes in. Basically a journo pushing on David Fifita and if he is re-signed at the Titans... Journalist was too pushy, The Titans should ban him from interviews. ... Like the Tigers should ban Gordon Tallis, from everything. I have learned in...

Re Lindsay Smith.... Agreed, Do we need a "nothing special" forward? Our season bottomed out once Pole got injured. Look when we front Pole + May + Twal and some Fainu's and a Seyfarth we can be competitive. We get an injury... Our front row depth goes to Charlie Murray.... That said, I...

That true. Look it's more concern, then actual worry. I really thought Leo Thompson was the Knights "forward to poach" and he hasn't lived up to that. KPP has clearly been putting the work in. Very fair point. Look were clearly not the Riff or the Storm and not that good at building people...

adding too this is the defensive analysis: Here’s the Creativity vs Defensive Risk chart (per-80 normalised): X-axis = Offloads/80 (attacking creativity, second-phase potential) Y-axis = Missed Tackles/80 (defensive risk) Key takeaways: Terrell May — very high offloads but also higher...

Yes, I actually miss Seyfarth. What's more I pumped this into ChatGPT to see if I was talking crap, OR if a crap language engine would back what I am saying? "Here’s a data-driven, 2025-only comparison of Wests Tigers middles, split by role. I’ve pulled season totals from publicly available...

True, but it's melbourne... Look not going to defend the dogs too much, but 3 tries a piece. Dogs loosing on Goal kicking and a penalty. Heck if we faced Melbourne and the score was 20/14 I would be cheering. That said, yea. When Melbourne can be missing 5 Stars and still beat a top 4 team...

yes... That sounds crazy right. Except Newcastle have 2x current internationals and are coming 16th. If every other player in Newcastle sucks, sure. But they have Ponga + some spine. Maybe the news of Dylan brown totally deflated their campaign, but we need to ask. Why are they coming near...

I think that worries me. The knights are sitting 16th and were taking KPP and dogs are taking Leo Thompson. Look, I get sides giving up in their position. But it worries me when we recruit from a team coming near last. This is also a reason why I wouldn't want Tino here, Titans should be...

Recently, yes. Getting rid of Galvin has sorted out our spine. Really the big change has been getting Pole back and having Taylan May. 2025, Turuva and Skelton upgrading our backline defense massively. Adding May and we can actually hold the line and pass the ball around a bit.

guessing they are talking the team list for us vs cowboys: Terrell May Api (hooker) Fonua Pole -- So far decent. 2rf- Samuela Fainu Sione Fainu (IMHO a prop) Twal at lock ??? oh vs Reuben Cotter too! Then the Bench: Latu Fainu Royce Hunt, who usually is a 15-20 minute player. Charlie...

True, but kinda not the same. What I mean by this is: A forward can usually be a forward. You may not be perfect but it's grab ball, run forward. If you can step or actually pass a bonus. We should be getting some performance from Hunt, except for the first few games and his last game... he...

100% agreed and I would be glad to lock up Skelton! Skelton, May, Starford and Turuva is a pretty damn awesome backline. What's more, Skelton learning off May(Tyrone)/Turuva will be fantastic. I rant about the big D but it seems Turuva gets where he needs to be and where his Center partner...

The good thing... There should be more then enough for both teams to turn up. The Cows have done us over a few times. I reckon 2005 still hurts them a bit. Benji vs Payten Bateman and Thomas Mikaele (he did play here, dinnit he), Sam Mcintire etc. If we are loosing a game, it may be this...

Because we wanted him badly. I remember people drooling over Royce hunt. Some were against us signing Terrell May. Imagine going to a player "heyw ere the wooden spooners and have had 4 forwards leave us". I totally understand why we gave 3 years, but lets not do that again.

May, Turuva and Skelton are IMHO the reason why were 11th and not 17th. May because he has replaced 4 forwards, some even SOO level with himself. We should not be this lucky. Turuva/Skelton have improved our defense immensily. We stopped being so SO porus on the wings and having shocking...

https://www.zerotackle.com/players/off-contract-2025/by-position-2025/ Is there anyone we really want? Jordan McLean? Siosiua Taukeiaho... Jack H gets mentioned A LOT here and I am kinda surprised Donkeys are holding onto him. Second row where we really need someone it's slim pickings...

What the hell is wrong with automatic removal?

Did we have Drinkwater here, or was it another drinkwater?
