OFFICIAL 2023 Top 30 / Ins and Outs

[Cobarcats]

taking a wild punt on the last three spots.

27. Bateman
28. Williams
30. Justin Matamua.. promoted to Top30. Other junior takes the spare Dev spot.
* would love a class spine player taking the last spot. Please Santa.

Dreamteam options:
27. Nanai
28. Moses
30. Teddy/ Crichton/ Manu

Well Crichton was rumoured earlier heh. He was reported to have settled for less money. My suspicions are that he didn't want to go to a struggling team however with our reecent great recruitment he may have changed his mind. 🤔

Too late Angus, our pack is too good now, cant fit him in

It's the players WT are moving on that makes me so happy.

Sending a clear sign to players that WT want quality not duds anymore.

We still have a few MAYBIES that have been taking up space.

I’d have Rua as a 14 before Jake Simpkins.

I think he needs some time in cup first , didnt play much last season only a hand full of cup games , and looked gassed after short minutes

Original post in this thread has been updated to include Matamua’s extension

Id find room for him.

Bump for Matamua. Congrats on becoming a top 30 player.

 

[Merlot]

well done young fella#259

Yep. I’m happy to see Matamua in the Top 30. If he has progressed well and identified as an option in the 17 then it would be silly to wait till halfway through the season to be eligible to play NRL. Also shows the other development players if you’re good enough opportunities will present themselves.
I’m guessing there is now one free development position for someone to try and make there own?

A little birdy must have told to me to re-up Matamua's thread, as soon as it went up he got promoted 🤣
Once again KingRobbie, thanks for generating this thread. I've referred back to it heaps already and is extremely useful.
👍

Maybe you need to Re-up the Bateman thread now

Get his player # ready....

🔥🔥🔥

 

[barnzee]

Where is Nu Brown?? Did we also let him go because he showed some signs of talent and desire???🥵

Why because he tried to score himself whenever he was near the try line

What does re-up mean?

 

[twentyforty]

What does re-up mean?

It’s army talk “re-enlist”
In this case I guess “revive”

I’ve got no idea either 🤔
I’m going with Roman Numerals talk.

If we have 12 out and 10 in, does that mean we have 2 vacancies in the cap?
Does anyone know the cap amount for 23? Has an agreement been reached?

Yep, 28/30 spots filled at the moment (as per first post in this thread).

No collective bargaining agreement yet, I read an article recently saying they’re apparently drawing closer though.

Genuinely embarrassing that it’s taken this long though.
The NRL financial year started a month ago and clubs still don’t know what the cap is for the current season.
Insanity.

We have about 20 maybe's still at the moment ...... before we become a premiership contender ...unfortunately that is the reality
