Jeez mate, you're quick to write a player off. And he's not fat.

he’s a bit fat come on

 

[finnzo]

Agreed. Josh Schuster Mk2. Fat. Injury prone. Career made from potential. Pathetic.

That’s abit harsh mate we haven’t even seen him play fully fit yet give him at least 2 years and to think he is over weight is just ridiculous

 

[Jedi_Tiger]

Do you have a scoop or are you basing it on Richo's praise for Duncan? Hopefully the former because he'd be a great addition to our pack.

no specific details only that we have spoken to him in the last week that is all and from what I heard he was keen.

They're trying hard but we're up against uncle Nick. Xavior Willison is more likely.

He is a good one, that would be a great pick up

It may be harsh but when you’re the highest paid player to never have played first grade it’s brings great expectations. Until proven otherwise- fat, shit hamstrings, he’s done nothing. Pathetic.

Talagi is best at fullback

He wants to play centre

 

[Tiger Stripes]

We just need to get our attack humming and Bula will be a net contributor in my opinion. He’s still learning first grade.

A slow learner?

 

[BAGNF05]

Pull my head in? Pull your head in!

At least the Slug is playing. He’s done more for this club than anyone this year bar Api.

What’s Latu done? Hamstrings - and that’s it.

He is on nowhere near what you and the others death riding believe he is on, he is on half of what you guys are sprouting. He is a class player, having hammy trouble at the moment, which they need to get fully right before playing him again, but he is a good one

BLORE left because bunji was disinterested or sitting on his hands! He’s killing it at the drizzle he’s locked in at 12. Great move by the club

No wonder you think Blore is killing it. The Storm number 12 is Katoa who has been on fire this year.

Latu Fainu

I’m saying he’s cooked. If he’s having hamstring problems already they will never get sorted. Look at Latrell, Turbo, Toa and all these other guys who have ongoing issues.

I forecast Latu Fainu will be a prop in 12 months.

One can gather such insight from looking at his player profile photo and the noticeable potential for fatness during offseason or injury plagues.

Blore - shithouse

 

[Tiger Stripes]

He wants to play centre

So I hear on here; but IMO would be a better fullback than Bula.
Bulla to wing.

 

[Vicious]

Tito is on a rampage tonight, you have missed a few of our biggest failures ?

Thanks champ, nothing better than a smart ass!

Was told Bateman back to England at seasons end and Naden gone as well at seasons end

WTF is wrong with you.

Blame Benji, he's the one who keeps picking him completely out of position, and refuses to give him the opportunity to get fitness up in Cup. The kid still has 2-3 years eligible for Flegg ffs

You should stop talking about yourself this way Tito.

 

[Red88_Tiger]

I think Bula could be upgraded. He clearly shows great ability at times but he is older than most think, doesn’t have a powerful frame and the flashes are too few and far between for me. I think O Large could be a good fullback when he is ready.

In the videos of watching large fullback is where he needs to start imo. Holds onto the ball more deceptively than Bula.
Then into the halves later pending team need

 

[Tom Shines]

you get the feeling this might have something to do with Richo being in England…



The hottest property in the English Super League is heading to the NRL.

Warrington back rower Matty Nicholson has told his club that he wants to move to Australia next season, sparking a race to secure the signature of a player who has thrived under Sam Burgess this season.

Sport Con understands that his Australian manager Liam Ayoub has been contacted by at least five clubs expressing an interest in signing Nicholson, who has one year remaining on his contract but is believed to be available for a minor transfer fee.

Nicholson, an edge back rower, is only 20 but has been a fixture in the Warrington side this season under Burgess, helping them into a share of the Super League lead.

NRL clubs have been monitoring him for some time but Nicholson knocked back interest in 2022 while at Wigan as a teenager.

He opted instead to join Warrington to play more Super League. That move has paid off with NRL interest spiking in the two years he has been at the Wolves.

Clubs are now ready to make their move after Nicholson informed Burgess that he covets a switch to the NRL. Nicholson also played one Test for England last year and will join the swelling English ranks in Australia.

Five clubs are after him … what chance he picks the three time wooden spooners for his Aussie adventure?
