He is completely different off the field. Doubt he is disliked.

Like when he toasted Brian To’o at his wedding?

Yeh. That was bad GNR. Feel sorry a bit for Luai. Penrith have done a great job to keep him in the parameters of reality.

AFB behind Haas is the best prop in the game.

If it’s for 2025 he’d be the perfect replacement for Klemmer.

AFB and Stefano would be one of the most dangerous starting prop rotations in the league.

Tough call. Gibbs and Donnelly. Too close to call. If I had to bet. If someone pushed me - I would go Dallas and Gibbs. I cannot think of a most lethal front row combination. Thats because sometimes I dont think.

 

[Kaito]

100% correct

He held the record for clubs he played at for a while - but fair to say he was a thorough professional at all the clubs he played for.

After making his debut as a lanky winger turned back-rower with ratty dreadlocks at Souths (in a team full of "colourful identities") - I can'r blame him for not being loyal to that slum of a club.

Played some of his best footy at Balmain and Wests Tigers though.

But has zero time for our front office as a manager.

Tyran is very well connected in the streets!!

JFH might be a touch better than AFB, just because of slightly bigger gas tank, but AFB is elite in his own right. Agree he would compliment Stef very nicely.

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

But he won't. Reality. In a dream world. Yes. It would be wonderful. Rainbows and Cotton Candy.

AFB has a much bigger "gas tank" the JFH. Addin can play 80 minutes if needed. JFH has it over him in the intimidation and the enforcer role of a front rower though.

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Baddabing Baddaboom JFH has an 80 minute tank. Thank You KS.

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Hang on. So does JWH

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Even at his age.

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

The other best prop on the planet is the Kiwi captain. JFH

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

I think its starting to make sense. Buy props with 3 initials. In this epoch.

 

[Halbrowne61]

we will offer more and he will still say no

I certainly hope so, not for me thanks.

You never been too pissed before. Either done or said something stupid. You obviously follow the media rubbish. He will be missed if he leaves Penrith by players and staff.

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

You can get pissed. And still hold your self. Not many can.

Mate, I have eyes. I saw the speech and I see the way he carries himself on social media. I wouldn’t have a clue what the media write about him. Nor do I care.

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Thats the thing. Please don't come to Wests Tigers. Stay on top whilst you can. Life is short.

 

[balmain boy]

Remember the days Bennett said props weren’t worth anything over 500k. That’s what good ones would be as a minimum these days.

The salary cap was a third of what it is now back then too

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Not for the Roosters.

Good player in the right structure. Anywhere else - potential disaster. Mentality is not there. Spirit is.

Bloke dragged Samoa to a WC final. He's class
