I know it's a very silly question but how do you pour your liquid refreshments when you are in a straight jacket?

I think we’re in for a good year. But i’ll call a spade a spade when it comes to the last 3 years. Sure, I can except we have been building to the future. But no amount of building for the future excuses 3 consecutive spoons. That’s just being a poorly run club.

It is. But they changed absolutely everything after 2023 off the back of a fan inspired movement. We WERE a poorly run club.

Doesn’t mean a thing until we start getting results. Which is definitely not a given.

That’s fair enough. I’m willing to award points based on the hope they’ve already inspired in the fan base. I haven’t had it since there was talk of us nabbing Chin jnr.

I expect people to understand kids take time to reach their prime. I don’t think it’s now or never, I think we’ll improve though.

The young ones were put in our top side to test them out and give them a taste of whats required in NRL sides.
Our KOE side was crap and the NRL side were heading for another spoon.
A calculated gamble and test for those players. Not pretty short term; but a picture of our weeknesses and what players we need to recruit.
The big picture of where we need to be.
I think we have done extremely well recruiting and 2026 will be even better. 🙏

I agree. Benji wore the punches well, last year was an obvious building year. The judgement arrives this year for mine.

Idk about anyone else, but i get tired of us having a really young squad as being one of the excuses why we have struggled. A young squad has been one of the side affects of being a poorly run club. No team can compete when their average age is 21-22.

So you are tired of the excuse that having a young squad is a reason why we have struggled. And then say no team can compete when their average age is 21-22. Isn’t that agreeing with the excuse?

Notwithstanding having an unbalanced squad was self inflicted, it is still a factor in our poor results.
