    wouldn't hate it at all. looks comfortable in grade already as a 22 year old and was always touted as a rep-level talent. gives us proven first grade quality in an area we need and wouldn't cost the earth. that said, I reckon he'd likely be promised a starting role at Parramatta, which is...

    fair chance he’s in line for one in 2027 I reckon. been our most consistent player in Flegg this year.

    Roster Breakdown: 2024-2029

    an outside back, a middle forward and a guy that can play in the middle and at hooker a pinch would be ideal. the issue is there's very little out there that solves our issues in free agency currently. November 1 opens up a wealth of opportunities but then comes the question of early releases.

    I'd leave Sultana in Flegg tbh. no doubt there needs to be some stability around some players and how they're developed (Mapapalangi, Mason and Luke Lau getting moved about case in point), but that's on Benji and Betsey. they need to be better at that for whoever is due in the seat next. I...

    highly rated by the club. dunno if he gets Flegg or Cup but I'm hoping he remains in Flegg for the sake of player development. Cup's a prick of a job at the best of times.

    I think Latu will be given every opportunity to play halfback with AD to do the bulk of his reps at 13. they might decide Latu isn't ready by R1 but it's prolonging the inevitable. Hope got smashed by Penrith but he's had other games where he's done well. not worth writing him off yet and the...

    agree on Bud but his salary's just too high to carry on the bench. think he's better off at Souths where he's a good chance of being Cody's successor. Seyfarth could but I'd probably steer clear.

    AD will be playing 13. with the size he'll be required to put on he's going to be more of a backrower than he is a centre. Saukuru's also converted to the edge. we're losing Feledy, Faataape, Staines and likely Naden from the 30, Olam too if you count him. Makasini and May are getting upgrades...

    both of them have certainly fallen away. not worried about Fonua, he's 23 and still learning how to play 24+ games in grade. Hunt by all reports had some serious issues with his ribs. don't mind Vaalepu. been around a long time and done a decent apprenticeship in QCup and in a handful of games...

    think a right centre to cover To'a is a higher priority. I'd say they'll leave spot 30 open.

    approx $600-900k, obviously more if they manage to get Bird off the books. you'd think a third party will be thrown in there as well.

    The Wests Tigers have tabled a three year deal to Taylan May as they look to lock down the centre until the end of 2028. May, one of the comeback stories of the year, has been among the Tigers best in the six games he has played for the club since returning to the NRL. The 24-year-old had been...

    yes but I’m also extremely selfish and want the entire squad there on November 3 for the sake of cohesion.

    Richardson would've had plenty to do with him during his time at Souths. looks a lot like what we need but as others have said it's mainly the question of why he's leaving. if it's simply because they need to create cap space to afford Fifita, then play on. if it's an attitude thing, we may be...
