I honestly think this is a blessing in disguise. Galvin won't be in the halves for long, so any decent money spent on him is going to be overs for a player with no NRL forwards experience. Galvin has shown plenty of guts and grit for a young rookie, but continually stifles our attack . It may...

Why the extension so late in the season then? He wouldn't have been short of suitors at good cash.

May was surplus to their needs on his $$ with Leniu also taking up considerable cap space with his new extension. It was an opportunity they saw, much like the Klemmer move. My take is old mate read a post the other day from the papers about a 2024 signing being disgruntled at their new club...

We can safely put this rumour to bed and add TillLindemann to the ignore list.

They'll need some spare cap with Manu coming back mid season. JWH wouldn't have freed up too much cash as he would have been getting the one club player dispensation from the NRl. They still have loads of high end players on their roster including Sam Walker who they have upgraded. I can...

I would say we are getting our wish from the last trial and will see Latu come in to the halves after halftime and Galvin subbed out. Will be interesting to see then if Mason moves to 6 with Naden to fullback, and where Bird plays. Bird could get a run at 6 in the second half, but I'd like to...

Owen Craigie? Although it was much like the current situation where he had already lost his way at Newcastle.

I jinxed him after the first half rap, his second half was non existent.

Slower start in the second half for him though

Was watching Hunt closely, mainly in his effort areas. Was chasing hard on the inside of defense and not walking. Kept putting his hand up for a run and running plenty of decoy lines. Didn't look like he was blowing like last year. Good signs this early on for a big guy with known fitness issues.

Agreed Halbrowne - there's a reason why there has been zero people at the stadiums. A better vision would be to make it $5 tickets and get as many kids in as possible and let them go on the field after to meet the players. They would see a better return long term then having 200 people @ $45 a pop!

There must be some club options for 27 and 28...surely...

I'm with you on this one Canadian Club. He's seems to have a cult following on here for reasons I'm not sure.

He's not an assistant coach of the NRL team. He's focusing on NRLW (of which he's also assisting at NRLW Origin level) and providing some guidance for our backs as an added bonus.

What has Inglis coached you in that has turned you off?

If he's been doing nothing but running, I'd say the hammies are all good at this stage.

I think Matamua will start at 13 in NSW Cup to prove that any intent shown in the pre-season translates into results before he is thrown in to 1st grade. Benji will want to go with the most balanced and experienced team in round 1 to get some early momentum into our season. For this reason I...

Looks really good. Need a bit more centre depth for 2026 and depending on how Makasini hits the ground running, could be the 3. option with Turuva / Skelton on the wing. Gives Laulilli some time to develop as well. I don't blame people for being skeptical as this rumour has been doing the...

As with anything there's always a *rumour* disclaimer, such is the nature of the thread. :)

We never heard about Luai's options until nearly a year later. All players have options.
