    Big fan of this. I personally believe we need a hooker on the bench to give Api a 20min rest. Playing Api 80mins a game will just come back to bite us and there isn't really anyone in our best 17 that can play 9. Haywood is not ready and won't be for at least a year or two. Should spend most...

    It doesn't make sense for him or Moses to trigger that clause when he can get a longer term deal at similar or more money, and Moses doesnt get paid. It makes no logical sense for Bula to trigger that clause...

    How do you know he thinks that? You're just jumping to conclusions without any real information... All we know is that he's got options in his contract and Moses wants a new deal. We don't know how much he wants/is asking for or how much the club wants to offer. The only other info we have...

    Why would he activate it if teams like Perth and R360 come in with bigger, longer term offers? Moses also doesn’t want Bula to activate that clause because he won’t get paid for 2 more years…

    Negotiation tactics. Richo isn’t going to hand Moses the deal he wants on a platter.

    Barely any props are playing regular first grade at 20. Most players havnt even made their debut by 19, and Luke only just turned 19. Any judgement on these two, especially Luke is crazy at this point. Debuting these guys early is the worst thing for our players at this point because our fans...

    Pole gets way too much hate on here. He struggled at the back end of last year after his injury, but early in the season he was one of our best forwards. He's still only 23, he isn't even close to his peak yet for a prop forward. Look at where Terrell and Sione Fainu were at 23, they were just...

    No I don't think we will get him for 800k. I see it landing at 850k, averaging out at around 900k over the full contract. This is the one time we have the power over Moses, because if he doesn't play ball we can activate the option and Moses doesnt get paid a cent for 2 more years while...

    If Bula is asking for 800k a season you pay that every day of the week. In October 2025 it might be questionable, but by the time that contract starts in 2027 it will be a bargain. Perth entering the competition, R360 and PNG on the Market, no starting fullback in the NRL with more than 50...

    I would swap Sione and Doueihi. Start with a bigger pack, Sione is also an underrated ball player. Played a ball playing 13 role when in cup and earlier at Manly. His footwork is elite and his ability to provide quick play the balls is second to none. Not only did he have the quickest play the...

    Brown for Bird on the surface is a nothing for nothing type of trade. I doubt either are planned to feature in the starting 17 come 2026. This seems like more of a leadership play, bringing Brown in to help the young guys like Kit, Pole and CTM develop. Kit actually has a very similar game to...

    Kamikamica seems to be another well timed Melbourne offload. He doesn’t have the same impact he once did and struggles after his first 10mins. I can see him leaving and struggling at whatever club he goes to.

    Melbourne chased him hard last year on Nov 1 but he chose to stay loyal and re-sign. It's the second time they had tried to get Fonua back down there. His brother will probably make his debut for the Storm in the next 1-2 seasons. He copped a heap on the forum for his performances at the back...

    Strange take considering Arthars was dropped for his poor defensive reads and missed tackles. To'a isn't a great defender by any means, but you really must not have been watching Arthars much to believe he is a better defender. They played a similar amount of games this year and To'a had 20+...

    To'a runs rings around Arthars.. Even Madge prefers Karipani and Mariner over Arthars.

    It's crazy how the Dogs have now shafted Burton and Mahoney who were both big parts of their turn around as a club. All for a half who some of the best judges in the game like Sheens, Ivan Cleary and Matty Johns all believe is a lock long term and not a half.

    I said prop, not forward pack. Latu is a lock and I honestly couldn't tell you if Leo Thompson played a game this year, that's how ineffective he was. The Dogs seriously lack props and is why they struggled against the top teams. As much as people blamed Galvin and their spine for the losses...

    As much as I would like another impact prop, I highly doubt we will get one this offseason. Mainly because, there are so many more other teams that are much more desperate for props than us and will pay overs. At this stage, we have 5 props that have over 50 first grade games of experience and...
