I've said this before, everyone on here who isn't a member (for whatever reason) should grab a non-ticketed club membership. Not too expensive but helps the club immensely (plus you get a free hat!). I live in Darwin and have been a member for something like 15 years. Baffled that WT don't...

How long until Lobb is in the start 13? Round 5? His dominance in the air plus hard carries out of our end already make him a stand out. But who makes way? Tupou or Stains?

Anyone know what the bleached hair punishment could have been for? Late to training? Dropped balls?

I was lucky enough to meet the Wallabies players before they headed over to lose the World Cup. I asked Vunivalu what code he likes better, Union or League and his reply: "Well, I win more games in NRL..."

I agree with the consensus re. the PNG/Cairns team. Similar issue with a joint Pacific team. The only team that makes sense financially, population-wise, revenue, timezone, state-of-the-art stadium and really puts the N in NRL, is Perth. Perth Bears? Perth Jets? Or a new name would probably be...

I think we will have strong competition for positions and a next-man-up policy with every backline position with two potential starters. I've gone with the starter then the next-man-up in my side due to injury or form. Taking emotion out of it (re. Nofo and Tupou) I think they are still our...

Those last few minutes really reinforced his want to run a team and take the challenge head on. Encouraging words and attitude from a proven winner. As the man himself is wont to say - Let's go!

I watched it live and they cut back to the studio at that same point. Was frustrating as I love a bit of Benji gushing.

Wooooooooot!

The graphics design team and the marketing team would have only come back to work today. Give them time to whip something up for the announcement. A press release involves much more than one sentence from the boss. That being said, I expect we will see something later this week if not earlier.

There are some logical fallacies at play here. In 2024 we have Sezer, Sullivan, Doueihi, Fainu and Galvin. Using your number that a "club needs 4 halves at a cost of around $2.7m" then we would have 5 halves for 2024 on less than that number. So by your own opinion, that would mean we have...

If that's the number then in 2025 with Luai on $1.2M, Bud on $500k, Fainu on $250/300k and Galvin on $200/250k works out to be $2.25M. A savings of around $500k. I don't see the issue.

This could mean an announcement earlier then the stipulate 10-days...

Just for a little context: STORM have Munster on $1.3M, Harry Grant on $1M, Hughs on $900k, Paps on $800k. EELS have MM on $1.2M, Gutherson on $950k, Jr Paulo on $950K. PANTHERS have Nathan Cleary on $1.3M, JFH on $1M and both Edwards and Yeo on $850k each. RABBITOHS have Latrell Mitchell...

I think you may be right. I reckon today was the day he told his teammates he's leaving, the last day of the cooling-off period. I predict his signature to be announced tomorrow or Monday. Or not.

Will wait for the official announcement but am quietly stoked. And I'll hazard a guess that those who don't like Luai or think of him as a villain are mostly Qld fans. All stemming from when he seemed to taunt a knocked-out Cobbo in 2022. I understand tribalism and cognitive dissonance are hard...

Re. future HALVES. If we sign Luai it is almost certain it's for halfback. I believe he could be a standout in that position (like Hynes has shown) but also because we have a bunch of talented kids coming through, all of which are primarily 5/8ths. But so far so is Luai. So looking at...

Fingers crossed he stays long term

I live interstate but have been a member for over a decade. Supporter membership doesn't cost much and frankly I'm shocked how many supporters aren't members. It's not all about tickets. If half the tiger supporters bought supporter membership we'd be streaks ahead of other teams and it can only...
