If Roosters want Bradman Best to take Billy Smith’s spot.

I’d happily take Smith off them without hesitation. He’s the real deal.

Just don't let him kick in general play haha

depending on what happens with staines, the club will look to add a center, they would love to move on noffa but will have to wear a very large chunk of his salary

sullivan enjoyed the visit from all reports, with the knights tomorrow

lots to play out, lots of clubs enquiring around loans for finals

Is Nofa still contracted for 2024 and 2025? That was a Lee special that contract.

Everyone could see it but Lee!

A few outgoing loans with obligation to buy clauses would be fine.

Apparently Jake Simpkin will be a rooster in 2024. My source is the same bloke who told me a little while back the fainus were 100% coming to us but also the same bloke who told me Mitch mosses was signing with the tigers so take it how u please. Just thought I’d throw it out there

Knew about the dogs having an interest is the knights a new one to the table?

You would think the Dragons will release to the club that pays the most so better for them. We seem to be tight these days so not confident on him yet.

He’s a goer

Would like to see a Sezer/Sullivan combo next year with Fainu/ Galvin in cup. Then Sullivan and whoever is best the next year. We also need to remember Sullivan suffered from Covid shutdowns which affected the development of so many in that age group plus playing under Griffin.

I wanted us to grab Smith a few years back.
The kid like Blore has had some bad luck but if he gets an injury free run is quality.

Swap for a centre

Definitely worth the risk imo.

More upside than downside, and we're having to take what we can get. He adds spark to the Dragons, so no idea why they'd let him go.

Newcastle keep chasing halfbacks.

Weird because there are so many people in here telling us we are fools for losing Hastings.

Why are they looking at halfbacks??

For the record- Sullivan would be a great addition. Very much an attacking option, and given we just seem reluctant to go AT the opposition, he might give that drive required.

BUT...don't overspend simply because we need depth.

No mate,
Just posting articles for the forum as a public service.

Fair enough, just had enough from the so called tigers supporter in the media!

 

[The Chad]

Tigers are short a centre (Alamoti- agree with Teddy23) & I'd say 2 wingers.

Staines would take one of those wing spots if re-signed, pushing Nofa from 'starter' to 'fighting for the spot'. (That is if he stays). I don't think Tupou is a problem, but I also think he needs to be safer under kicks. He could be a centre. We need a winger that doesn't cost us wins. Doesn't have to be a star, just has to not be a liability. I know Hymel Hunt gets no love here, but he would be a perfect 3-4 winger at the club for when Tupou/Staines/Nofa hit the wobbles.

 

[boonboon]

Enari Tuala would be my choice from the Knights. Hasn't got much of a chance this year but has 88 nrl games and is only 24 so will be looking for an opportunity snd can play centre or wing.

 

[The Chad]

Hoping the Tartak connection with Sullivan works in our favour.

But, additionally, I hope the club doesn't load up on all of Tartak's stable. We just seem to be linked to anyone he's got at the moment.

Not sure mate I’ll ask him tomorrow and see if he’s heard anything like that all he said was he will be a rooster next year.

 

[The Chad]

Of course, I'd be equally happy to bring back another 'safe' player in Paul Momerovski.

He would certainly add a calmness to our defensive structure, either at centre or wing. Momerovski & Hunt side by side might be one of the soundest defensive edges in the NRL, but probably a bit lacking in excitement.

I reckon Sezer/Sullivan should start the season assuming we get them.

Fainu’s time will come and if we start him from round 1 there is a very good chance he’ll start to burn out mid way through the year.

I’d be starting Sezer and Sullivan with Latu at 14.
