Something you can’t deny are the boys are playing for their coach this season. They believe in the system and the vision Benji has - especially our two big star recruits May and Luai which is a domino effect on the rest of the team with two big vocal leaders. We have some clunkiness in attack...

Bula has always been safe with high balls and runs the ball really well. Something that really stood out which was imo once a weakness in his game is his ball playing ability. He was excellent with his ability to straighten the line and drag defenders giving space to our centres and wingers. I...

I agree 100% - early signs aren’t great at all. Quite frankly how his manager has conducted business over the last 12 months should bring his value down if anything. It’s a shame because Galvin really does look the goods, but he’s being led by the worst of the worst that the NRL has to offer...

Don’t get the Parra and Galvin links. If he leaves it’s to win football games and I think parra are further behind than us. I’m more worried about Manly sniffing around post DCE retirement tbh.

Kikau Preston Curran Tupouniua Hayes Bulldogs have some cap pressure and an abundance of edge rowers. Curran has been doing 1 year extensions since going over. Would definitely be looking into this.

May and Maksini as a centre combination for the next decade sounds unbelievable. I posted on here we were a good chance to get Taylan before Terrell even came, you’d think our chances have gone up even further….

Slow news day - both him and Luai will be fine by round 1… Any way to dismantle or bring negativity around the club they’ve found makes them money and gets them clicks. Season hasn’t even started and they’ve already annoyed me.

Personally I think a big middle forward. I know it might’ve been a pipe dream given the May signing inbetween it all but I would’ve loved Leo Thompson…

I genuinely think we’re one quality forward signing away from being a top 8 team. It seems the belief around the club is players will become available throughout the 2025 season and they’ll pick their moment to pounce. If the right player becomes available I think we can be a serious threat...

This isn’t mail or anything - but I find it highly highly unlikely that Galvin re-signs with us. The way he has acted throughout the last 12 months screams someone waiting for his contract to end so he can go elsewhere.

I’m not sure if it has been mentioned before but I’ve heard today to keep an eye on Harrison Hassett from Penrith. Could be a good chance at ending up a 🐯

Being unbiased here…. but that’s not a top 8 forward pack and could be arguably the worst pack in the comp at current stage. Still need to bring in some reinforcements.

The 13 position was Latu’s to take. Latu rocking up to preseason unfit the season he’s being pushed to play in the middle has unfortunately derailed that and a potential spot at 13 has been opened up for Bird or even potentially Seyfarth for the short term. The club were looking for a veteran...

May and Pole should 100% be our starting front rowers next year with both playing 55-60 mins a night. I think these two can go another level in 2025 - one of them at the very least. Hunt off the bench is solid and his ability to give us a impactful 25 mins to either swing or maintain momentum...

I will be completely and utterly shocked if Bateman finishes the year a West Tiger… let alone starts it. Don’t think people understand how unsalvageable that relationship has gotten with him and Benji.

Could be wrong - but my mail is he’s currently in QLD.

I don’t think it’s so far fetched. We’d obviously have to pay a certain amount to help get the deal done and Brisbane are quite thin with their back row depth, on top of that Madge has worked with him before and sees some potential value there. They’re also are in desperate need for some grunt...

Just to clarify this is something I’ve actually heard is being discussed. Madge could be an obvious factor.

John Bateman swap for Kobie Hetherington. Who says no?….

If we get May - we still need another forward before we start saying “far superior”. We’re losing Papalili and Stefano…. say what you want about Stefano but he’s a massive loss regardless on his inconsistency issues. I would’ve loved him with Luai at the club but unfortunately that’s not a...
