If you added Hunt to that Titans team they would actually be a contender IMO. They are top 2 in the NRL in most stats first 60 mins of games...then they collapse. He would solve a lot of those issues.

Ben Hunt is 1000000% NOT coming to us. He wants out because he wants to try and win a comp before retiring. He is 33. He is not demanding a release so he can move from the second bottom team to the bottom one. People saying "go get him!" are delusional.

Honestly, I have never seen anything like our centers this season in all my time watching footy. Naden started okay and then got suspended...again....came back in State Cup and barely looked interested / did nothing. Last night he, literally, gave up on a play and was outhustled by Kane Bradley...

The main prob will be price. Every single player manager knows we currently need four halves. AD won't play until mid 2024 at best. So, we need NRL 6 and 7. AND State cup 6 and 7 who can genuinely play NRL if needed. Even if Wakeham is kept...it is still three more. Managers for blokes like...

He is very fast out of dummy half and can pass both ways...his passing and creativity is much better than Jake already. He is similar to Api with his guile. A natural and, IMO, will be a star. But...he is 18...and, even then, only just 18. So, he won't have a Bula like impact. Bula is three...

We are a really good 6 and 7 away from being a semi final team in 2024. We also a really bad 6 and 7 away from being spoon favs in 2024. Basically, we have to find some quality halves before we will really look like a finals team.

Def did that well. Has a strong record with some of their pathways players. VS He also recruited Kelma Tuilagi from us...one of the worst defensive backrowers ever. They then leaked points down his edge whenever Tuialgi played.

Buzz and Hadley would not say a bad word about a Fulton no matter what. He is basically family to them.

He is Bozo's son...and Bozo was mates with literally all the heavy hitters in the media. I am not criticizing him, just saying that he would not be getting any of this attention were he not Bozo's son. Re his body of work...that remains to be seen. Yes, recruited some promising young players...

Will Smith has been TERRIBLE in State Cup. Terrible as in....really, really, terrible. No way could he be picked.

I like him...but he has to take the leap and mature. I have said this a few times here, but Madden gives you 5 or 6 out of 10 every week. Nothing flash. But never a 1/10. Wakeham can give you an 8 or even a 9...a complete rarity for a back up. He can play like he did v the Cows and you think...

True. I think everyone looked at the depth chart in Jan and thought "geez Brooks and AD basically have no one challenging for their spots............and imagine if both got hurt". It was foreseeable when you have no halves depth. 2024 looks just as bad in the halves...we literally HAVE to...

Yeah, everything that could go wrong did. And a lot of fringe players like Talau and Wakeham went back miles. Add in we just lost most of our spine for months. A disaster. We are looking at things like 6 ToA 7 Laurie 9 Jake from here. i.e. we won't win another game. Tallyn will be a...

I have been an advocate for Wakeham, but his prob has ALWAYS been he throws in an absolute shocker whenever he finally seems ready to go up a level... And, right on cue, tonight was a shocker. He looked several paces below everyone and was slow in everything he did. An absolute barry crocker...

I would be 'very' surprised if Tumeth is Murray's size.

Yeah, I hope he makes it. I cant see Sua...more like a smaller, toiler type... At this stage it looks like BWM has already gone past Tumeth though. So, he will need an NRL deal also and we already have a lot of backrowers.

Just a brutal loss... I rarely blame refs, but Raiders laid all over us to slow the ruck ALL game...should have been binned way earlier. And how on earth was the try where Brooks was pushed hard...both hands in the back...as clear as daylight...not even checked. Add in we had a three man...

Tumeth back in Flegg. I like him and he and his family are all real fans...but just not sure he will make it. He is so small and has not stood out at all in state cup. That 3 year NRL deal looks like a bad decision / great luck for him.

Yes. Fairly sure Benji scored 5 tries v Newcastle in a reserve grade game before his debut. My memory may be failing me, but he def played some reggies.

Have you watched any state cup? I was hailing Rua big time a year ago...but he has done absolutely nothing this season in state cup. He has had half a dozen games of ZERO running meters, his passing is average, and he looks completely out on his feet most games after about 20 mins. He looked a...
