I would like to think Marshall has mates around him because he trusts them to give him feedback required rather than because they are yes men. The personalities of Morris, Hodgson and Heighington don't strike me as yes men. Near as unqualified for their positions as Marshall is his (except...

Hope you're not still watching

Murray, Haas, Cleary But I think we'd need 2 more on top of that to be a premiership threat

I get your point but by deserve I was referring more to their attitude than results. Dragons have tried their guts out every week. You could count on one hand the times they've dropped their head and stopped competing and in each of those occasions they competed for the first 50-60 minutes of...

According to google AI we have one of the better funded grass routes programs

No-one knows what the cap will be going forward at this stage. It's all guess work. Every increase in the past however has been incremental so I think it's safe to assume it will be the same for 28. Again no idea what those increments will likely be.

Half the forum thought the depth was shit in March. Just about every issue with the performances of individuals/the team was predicted by many (not all, but many). Concerns around individuals Bula not finding another level, Toa not being dedicated to rehab, Makasini progression being poorly...

It was reported that they didn't offer him a contract

I've heard a million. Can't remember where but I feel like it wasn't anything credible. Like a podcast or something.

[ Doubt Preston will. He was cut from their reserve grade side before finding a home at Dogs.

I've only seen a few of his game but No. Not a runner and not strong enough defensively to have him and Api on the field together.

Haywood has made some comments when interviewed however suggesting API has been great teaching him ruck deception so there is evidence to say he is doing so.

I don't see Latu going to another club as a back up unless maybe behind an aging half. Both Sam and Foketi are equally capable playing through the middle so I wouldn't rule out them chasing Sam but as a package deal I'd think it very unlikely.

Mostly a couple comments made by some former players suggested that is the case. I do think he is a bit of a different style 9 to most that it wouldn't really be easy for him to try to mould someone to play like him and perhaps he has enough additional responsibilities as captain that there is...

I believe Roosters have already committed to a future with Savala at 6 and Bassingthwaighte at 1. Also think Foketi and Wong will be there edges for some time.

Samuela has elite potential but he is so far from being a great defender. As things stand he is one of the lesser defensive starting backrowers in the competition. Also agree we shouldn't be letting him walk but you also can't chain the bloke up at Concord. If he wants to go the club can't...

Someone always brings up Frizell and mentions leadership. I liked him as a player and his professional in getting himself ready for games is as good as anyone. But he is not a leader. He does not speak up in team meetings, he does not mentor younger players, he simply looks after himself. Not in...

He also brings some professionalism to the side and is someone I think can really tutor the younger nines, something I think Api does not do.

Doubt it'll happen my preference would be start him at 9. His defence, ruck control and service are all very good. Bring Api on to exploit fatigue around the ruck. Game play dictates if Brailey stays on as a defensive 13 or subs off to keep a running forward in the 13 role.

Yep one of the best. I didn't realise he'd left Dolphins. I've Paul Bunn and Dan Anderson alongside him.
