The fact that Seyfarth went into the middle and was in a ball playing role indicates that someone is on their way to play in the right backrower spot immediately. Yes, Twal got an early HIA but Bird came into that middle position, yet Seyfarth was playing as the ball player. Sione as the only...

Bullemore is about to re-sign with Manly for 4 years.

Latu was a year older but when they were both there Galvin played fullback. Latu 7 Blaze Talagi 6 Galvin 1

Wouldn’t read anything into that. Half the young guys have shared it, even Latu.

I wouldn’t take anything agents say in the media literally, ever. It’s all negotiation tactics. Nothing Tallyn has said or done has indicated in the slightest that he wants to leave or ‘bend the club over’. There’s no point getting upset at a player about something that they havnt done or...

Well it’s not. Tallyn isn’t requesting releases, throwing tantrums in the sheds after games, bagging the coach etc. It’s a bit rough on TDS, he’s still a WT player and hasnt caused any issues or drama while at the club. He hasn’t even said he’s leaving. For all any of us know, he may yet...

Its completely different. Yes he's a 20 year old, but he's a 20 year old that many clubs believe is ready to be a starter right now. This is also his 3rd year in first grade. Hes basically been offered a promotion (starting role) and more money elsewhere. Doesn't matter if you're a footballer...

Tavana reminds me of Bula. Lean, super athletic outside back who needed a couple of years in Flegg to develop properly before making the jump to grade. Bula is a great example that not every player needs to debut at 18-19 and a 2-3 years in Flegg and Cup is very beneficial.

Kini's new deal with the Gold Coast sounds like its more than 1million a season. "Kini’s new mega deal will see him join the likes of elite NRL stars Reece Walsh, Kalyn Ponga, Nathan Cleary, Daly Cherry-Evans and Titans teammate Tino Fa’asuamaleaui." That would mean Kini, Tino and Fifita are...

200k is almost minimum wage. Players on 200k are usually number 28-29 on the roster. Staines and Naden are both on double that. People really are out of touch with salaries and rises from the cap increase.

Junior Tupou given permission to leave the Dolphins.

Disagree, can't rush players for the sake of it. Need to have a long term view. Imagine we played him and he re-aggravated the injury. Everyone would be blowing up at Benji for rushing him. Just look at how Turbo is playing after being rushed back for thousandth time.

Newcastle, Parra, Cowboys, Manly, Bulldogs (if Mahoney goes) and probably even the Titans considering Verrills injury history. Most teams who have a dummy half who isn't top tier would happily start TDS as a long term investment.

We should have signed Hassett when we had the chance. So many on the forum didn't want him because they thought he was 'undersized'. He's always been a talent and as I said almost a year ago, he's essentially the same size as Liam Martin. Unfortunately we're stuck with Seyfarth as a starting...

There was more recent history. They made up after this, then Politis helped Moses get back into the game and provided a character reference. The Roosters then signed Suaalii when they were back on good terms. They then had a massive falling out last year because of the Suaalii deal as Politis...

Wasn’t he doing some promo work at the Star in Sydney on Saturday night, then at training yesterday? Not sure where he would have had time to go to Perth and back. Not to mention he can’t formally talk to clubs. Sounds like fake news

Good to see Haywood, Duncombe, Godinet and CTM all being bought into this side at a steady pace and not being rushed into Cup or the NRL squad.

I think it’s fairly clear the club don’t think he will be here by the end of the week. Even if he was, it’s not great from a team standpoint if you’re playing a guy who’s already got one foot out the door and has said “I want to be a Bulldog” over a teammate who ‘wants to be a Tiger’.

He played 5/8 throughout his juniors. He was the reason Galvin played backrow for the Harold Matts team. Sure, it’s only a junior level but he’s at least familiar with the position and has ball playing. Also, what do you want the club to do? Latu is injured, Bud is on loan, Bird is...

He’s also been playing injured. He had an ankle injury early on which he never really looked like he fully recovered. He also tweaked his knee last game which is probably a symptom of over compensating for the injured ankle. Second row is his position. Once he’s fully developed and learns...
