I’ve mentioned Topa Sipley previously. I’m actually happier with the acquisition of Bunty.

had to think who you meant for a minute. I think Tui has a bit more standing but as a result would probably cost more. Bunty more impact which we completely lacked this year.

Is someone going to create the offical thread?

Half the price probably as well. I did say I see us building a much more experienced side over the coming seasons.

I think he had a spot in the warriors 17 last year and before but this season he was replaced by the two breakout power Tongans.

I dunno, he is probably our biggest body available now. That can be an advantage. I’d say Bunty or Hunt would be competing for impact prop now.

Play him at 13 BWG? lol.

Agree there. He just needs a bit of acceleration to convert those almost breaks into full breaks. Plenty of times this year in both teams he would just almost crack through the line but his speed wouldn’t let him get loose.

Pezet apparently signing with the Eels. Good forward thinking by them. Complementary as a 5/8 and more than adequate as a halfback to fill in for a mia Moses.

Don’t forget the Storm have Lazarus Valepo who was unsighted this year and also signed Josiah Pulu mid year.

I reckon they’ll use the money to keep Kamakimika.

Just saw that

They were, are you sure they pulled out and wernt cut? It was mentioned at first it was an extended squad and further cuts were to come.

I wouldn’t say nobody will get to that level. Whilst I believe that was the most dominant performance from a fullback in a gf I’ve ever seen it’s not unusual to expect others to be as dominant. Walsh though had been making plays like that from back in his warriors days when he was 70kg dripping...

Sure. But who with the available 900k or even 1mil could we sign to replace Bula?

Re: Bula, whilst he isn’t the best fullback in the game right now he is still an extremely talented player and the best fullback we have had at this club since Tedesco. After watching Walsh’s performance over the last couple of months and the gf I’m left thinking is Bula ever going to get to...

I reckon Jock is exactly what we need. He isn’t a kid now, he has spent the best part of 24 months learning under the tutelage of one of the best halves in the game.

I don’t necessarily agree that Madge cleared the roster, I feel that was more done in the Kimmorely / sheens appointment. I reckon Ricky had the hatchet job at Parramatta: in one year he moved on 14 players.

Something happened mid season. Maybe Madge was drilling football first into them from the start. Matty Johns mentioned when Madge first started preseason he couldn’t believe how unfit they all were. Walsh mentioned when started the season he was spending 100% of his time on football and had no...

Any insight on how this eventuated? Who called the shots to run the independent and comprehensive investigation she was the Chair six months ago; was it Dennis that ran with it?
