Well, days of being on the bus are a distant memory.
Now we have a Laurie to take us around.

Welcome aboard our new bus
Now strap in

A magnificent play on words, take a bow.

I know nothing at all about Laurie so I will temper my enthusiasm until I get to see him in action.

I do know that Momo undertook a relocation to the Storm to assit the Harry Grant season at the Tigers in 2020. I thought that was selfless and decent on his part.

I'm disappointed that he couldn't return to the Tigers and be a part of a better 2021 season. I hope his move to the Panthers is financially and professionally better for him and his immediate future.

No doubt, he learnt a lot under Bellamy and his systems and I wish him every success in his future.


Well said.

Here's a video about the debut of Daine Laurie. Seems a very level headed, humble and smart guy.

Was I the only one wondering why we don’t have videos like that at the Tigers?

Penrith's video content is sensational. well above everyone else in the league. would be brilliant if we could do something similar.
 
Wow, I spend a weekend watching Little Athletics State qualifiers at Narrabeen and come home to some great news - wasn't expecting this to be honest.

I still Mbye will start the season at fullback, but once Laurie is brought up to speed, I think Moses will end up the bench utility.

Not sure if already mentioned, so apologies if repeated, but it seems that Laurie is on the bus to the Tamworth trip with the boys (on Insta stories of Jet/Fitzgibbon) so is good to see he is straight into the action for the bonding experience camp thing going on!


They have always been good mates, part of the koori knockout tournaments each year. I like the aboriginal connection we have going on at the club,i think the approach should help keep Jimmy on track

Finally into his best position.

Agreed - can't stand the team but I honestly look forward to their pre-season behind the scenes content.

Do you see this impacting Simpkin’s game time this year provided Mbye has more utility value or do you think injuries might negate this factor?

We've brought a new guy (Michael Blok) on board this year as a 'Digital Content Producer'. He did the Gavin Badger story on the clubs' website this week.

I see it improving our depth - it might not make Mbye happy but the fact he can fill in several positions is handy.

They actually do, I would like to see more inhouse content though.

Yeah I agree, it actually greatly improves 2 of my bigger concerns leading into the season, fullback and 5/8th depth.

dout simpkins would be ready until 10 games in or so, Maybe then depending on Liddles form or injuries he takes the 9
Mmbye is great utility value though
