I’d have Pole & Sione in the 17 and Hunt & Seyfarth as depth (covering injuries and suspensions in NRL) Still think we need two middles to complete the Top30.

We need two middles falling out of a trees. Plus Pole and Sione performing in the rotation

Don’t love it but I’m O.K with it. Doesn’t irk me the way Galvin did.

Couldn’t agree more. Don’t stand in the way of someone who isn’t 100% buying in. It’s very important to get the next couple of signings right.

2pm on Nine

Yes. Papali’i on the bench shows much Penrith saw lack of forwards as a problem for 2025 that needed fixing. We he comes on they dont miss a beat. They needed some like Papali’i to cover loosing players like James Fisher-Harris

The Bledisloe Cup is on at the same time as the AFL gf.

There big contact players are going.

Yep, we need to replace likes of Isaiah Papalii, Stefano, Klemmer. Definitely short of seasoned NRL level props.

Tough one. Right now Galvin. Has he f’ed our season and tried to whiteant the coach. Ivan did more long term damage. Both are behind us now.

Yes but the pinnacle of AFL is representing a shit suburb of Melbourne not beating another country. It’s a waste of time and energy imo. And at the same time draining sporting talent and resources away from sports that matter. If I was P.M it would be outlawed.

Un-Australian to play a sport that you can’t beat the Poms or Kiwis in.

Bad defensive from Penriths left edge

Yep, That’s the difference between and the top8 teams. If bench needs Pole, Sione + one strong middle player an a starting prop. The Raiders also have a strong bench and middle. The quality of there middles (Horsburgh +Tapine, Papalii, Smithies ect) will always make them hard to beat.

If the Roosters get away with the salary cap exemption…it would set a precedent for clubs to create cap space by punting players when they have mismanaged there roster. RLPA would have their hands full. I’m sure there would be more leaks coming out of clubs about players they would want to get...

Harsh punishment compared to Esra Mam

The margin of error of going a bit too high with that kamikaze style defence has worked against Radley (and others) he gives away a lot of penalties. This year the footy has been great viewing with its momentum shifts (or a “game of two half’s”) where you think one team has the game won (like...

Agree. Not sure why we are looking at the players in our squad that are up to NRL level. The squad still has players in it that were called upon to play NRL when they should be developing their skills in state cup. The focus should be having more punch in the 17.

Agree. I like the rest of the design. Just the plans for the new Northern stand is underwhelming to only hold 1500 seats.

I wonder if Gould is regretting the months of seduction calling Galvin the best player he’d ever seen ect.. He built Galvin up to be the next immortal
