what's your team for the first Ashes test, assuming Cummins is out?

Yes, Rugby League is much more appealing to PNG than ping pong. Honestly I think its a genius way to conduct diplomatic affairs

May was excellent on the field this year. Off the field he has been good for culture.

someone on the bench in 2026 is going to have to do 20mins at hooker. can't have Api playing 80mins

Cheers, I was going off this fox sports article The biggest names without NRL deals in 2026… and who could offer a lifeline

That should have come with a warning. I click on it and now can't un-see it. Luckily I had it on mute.

who would you rather as backup hooker in 2026. Zac Dockar-Clay, Siliva Havili or Danny Levi. All are off contract.

I listened to SEN this morning they were talking about the press conference with Jarome Luai ahead of the Samoan test. He was asked "How have you been staying fit ahead of the test series?" He said Terrell May has be leading a group of WTs players doing different fitness things. I didn't hear...

From the SMH Jarome Luai says Wests Tigers have nothing to worry about … if they do one thing. Jarome Luai says he will pledge his long-term future to Wests Tigers – on one condition. “As long as they do right by me and my family, they’ll have nothing to worry about,” Luai said Jarome has until...

In 2023 we fielded the youngest side in the NRL, then beat our own record a few weeks later. We still have a very young side. Makasini will be playing a lot of NRL in 2026. Good teams always have a mixture youth and experience. You don’t need to give every young player a go until they have earnt it.

Sione is stronger in the middle. Has good energy and footwork through the middle. Seems to get a quick play the ball there as well. His reads in defence wider out isn't as good. KPP's defence on will help sure up the right side.

Ethan Roberts (20yrs old) looks talented but doubt he could do long minutes at 2nd row in 2026. Maverick Geyer (24) and Tony Sukkar (21) would be in the mix. Seyfarth and Sione hopefully won’t be needed on the edge as they are better suited to the middle

If we are in the market with the $ for Payne Haas (he would be our most expensive player), then that means we are the funds to sign just about anyone. I wonder if this is just planning if Jarome & Bulla don’t re-sign or if we actually have the $ now for more elite players in 2027 (surely not for...

Pheonix Godinet is a couple year’s away. KPP and Sam F will give him time to develop properly

KPP improves the side a lot. It’s great to now have 2 second rowers that can play 80mins. Sione is going to be very handy on the bench covering the middle mostly. If he keeps improving the way he did in the 2025 season .he could even start at 13 or prop. Hope he resigns. We are going to need...

Glad to see WTs are recruiting experienced props. If all goes well with our starting props..It doesn’t bother me how many NRL games Bunty (Brown also,if they swop comes off) play for the WTs in 2026. We need experienced backup in the middles if injuries strike, can’t throw kids into that...
