Curious who we picked him up from.
Highlights show he was part of our Macarthur tigers team.

He's been with us the past couple of years i think. But only very young, like 14 now i think...

Junes needs to be locked down. Pay that boy !!!

 

[pawsandclaws1]

Comes down to money

Maybe and I may be wrong but it seems we're doing a far better job in identifying, recruiting and retaining the best of our young talent. It is not possible to keep everyone but there appears to be more boots on the ground in our junior districts.

Thompson from the Bulldogs - Dud

We don't need him.

Thompson from Newcastle ....?

Marginal imo but totally agree re Thompson
from Dogs.

 

[Odessa]

Well pointed out..
This is for the argument rolled out here of how "Dominant" our pack has been....

Those claiming we're "dominant" through the middle,
obviously don't watch the likes of Fonua Blake and Fisher Harris...
They're the baseline for dominant Props.

I said it after the Cronulla game
- I saw a no name like Tom Hazelton have a far bigger impact on our defensive line than any of our "rep players" did on theirs....

Fonua Blake was cut/let go from Manly without a fight or compensation because of what he did to a major sponsor he is lower then low as a human being

I'm sure he regrets his past choices and seems to have turned his life around at the Warriors. His contract was terminated at the Dragons.

Thompson from Newcastle ....?

I like him eh. I’d take him EASILY over Bulldogs Thompson.

Runs bloody hard.

Luke Thompson is to forwards what Sam Tomkins is to backs - all hype and pathetic.

I remember Sam Tomkins being billed as the next Slater and Thompson being called the next Burgess.

Oh he’s like Burgess - Luke Burgess.

🤢🤮

Lets Hope were not Identifying the best new talent for the Roosters, Melbourne etc

Retaining our best talent is a great outcome. Denying the talent to the Storm and Roosters is similarly a great outcome.

If we do sign Sullivan and Sezar how many spots do we have left for 2024. I would like us to sign a decent center or winger depending on where they see tupou's future along with resigning Staines

Pardon my ignorance/memory but what did he do to a major sponsor that resulted in a
release ?

Is Croker worth looking at for a 1year plus 1year option ?
Or what about Moylan now Trindall out of sight.

[Coastie_Tiger]

I do wonder why we havent formally announced Sullivan, Sezer and what about Hawkins someone mentioned we may have him on a T&T next year?

 

[Scare]

He never played for the Dragon's

It was kept quiet and he had no remorse

I’m confused O,
So are you saying you don’t know why ? Or you do know and not saying ?
