I think Bird and Hunt will find it difficult making the top 17 next year. Hopefully Bird picks up a gig in SL. Hunt on a retirement package. Have big hopes for Taylan and the development of Makasini. Need a decent backup for Bula and Api - we will struggle if Mason and Hope are in the spine for...

Its staggering. Surely Benji would have kicked up a stink about this - it affects him more than anyone and we are now seeing the results of it and a coach under pressure. I hope they have a plan but our squad looks significantly weaker than the start of the season and will it actually compete in...

How can the club expect fans to rock up to the Roosters game next weekend; it will be a bloodbath. Management have closed the book on yet another season; preferring to pad the bank account and look profitable rather than get results on the field. The next month will be a disaster and at the end...

Get Brad Arthur in as assistant coach and that way we have someone to take over when Benj is pushed out the door in 2026. He has lost me a little over the last month.

Seems this club will be stuck in the doldrums forever; no matter whose in charge....

Surely he must be staying or that wests tigers sponsored video is a sick joke. Wouldn’t surprise me though….

And no one is picking him up at this stage of his career. Another retirement package on the way.

He was never going to be in 1st grade plans next year. Not with the way the squad is being assembled anyway. Sucks to lose him but I imagine he has greater aspirations than being a backup.

Wonder if we are still in the mix to sign Votano....

Isn't that the colour of the COE in the background?

Unlikely to see NRL IMO

I was thinking the same thing...

You can certainly crap on. FMD.

Legend @BlackWhiteGold, thanks for putting in this effort. Great read and insightful.

The plug that Matt Johns gave Galvin before the Bulldogs Monday game made me sick. Gould is definitely on a mission to make him the glamour boy of the NRL.

I would hope Bird can move on next year; maybe get a couple of years in SL. Charlie Murray is a stretch here too. Wouldn't get a run in any other NRL side.

Cobbo isn't built for Sydney. Would be homesick in a jiffy. Surplus to requirement as well - Toa and May appear a solid duo to invest in for the future (from a talent perspective).

We took whoever we could during a time we were desperate and low on halves. Bud Sullivan was purchased at the same time. Where is the plan for him?

Now just a little more decent grunt upfront.
