Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Disagree. He could see how much of a cancer Galvin was and cut out the tumour

Rubbish.
He spent weeks putting together a package to sign him.

Anyone who doesent think we need KPP now hasn't watched Seyfarth tonight - 40 mins, 0 runs and caused 2 tries

KPP. Solve all our problems. Okay.

Mason good in attack but can’t tackle. Katy great defence . We look good in attack but too many errors

Latu

The priority should be TDS. Love Api but he’s going to start slowing down soon.

I’d understand prioritising Api IF we were in a premiership window. We won’t be competing for the premiership in 25’ or 26’.

Realistically we won’t be competing for a premiership until 2027+. By then Api will on his last legs and TDS will be gone. Then what? Haywood? There’s still a question mark if he will even be an NRL player.

We should be looking to re-sign TDS and loaning him for 2026. When 2027 comes he will be 22 and in his 5th NRL season. He will be ready to start by then.

Yeah like dropping the ball over the line under bugger all pressure to lose us the game

lol that was far later on. Do you even know what you are talking about?

 

[innsaneink]

Do we need him early ?

Could use another backrower more right now than a hooker.....he didnt even get a run tonite

 

[innsaneink]

So were you wrong or was I?

You were....tradition means going back a way in time...when we used to beat them regularly

Benji only needed 16 again to get the win

Yesterday is back in time… tradition does not necessarily mean it’s got to be from way back when

Seen the teams we are playing in the remaining weeks of the comp.

Our odds for the spoon are shortening, should be able to get into 17th by the end of comp.

Latu

Latu needs to start the game was very strong tonight 💪

 

[Lukic]

Latu is a gun. He could very well become every bit the player Katoa is.

He is going to be a fine player … if they had of played him for the 80 in front ot Mason,.,that game might have been different

 

[hsvjones]

100% He just changes the game the instant he runs on..

He is a player that looks like he has time on his side and in slow motion.

I pray Benji drops Mason and starts him with TDS on bench to cover

It’s amazing how quick the WT’s attention can turn…
Isn’t this the kid we rated so highly we named him captain in a trial?
I know, it’s only a trial - but he’s also only a kid and this is his junior club.

Surely 4 months later we still think more of him than this…

Agree it's strange, but in the same trials a lot of forumers were writing him off completely.

Then he’d want to become an Australian citizen first to get Albos tax breaks and take full advantage of all the incentives.

The minimum wage in png is less than AUD $11 a day, a bit over $4k per annum.

Let’s say he hits average nrl wage, he’s on close to 90 times the minimum, the Aussie equivalent of $4.5m.

It’s probably unsafe for him in Port Moresby, so him and his family may have to live in the NRL compound or build one and hire security.

Anyway, we will need to look after him properly here. Keep him away from Satan and from NRL gangsta life.

Need a translator as well I’d fancy.

Get the translator to impress upon him that we are the greatest rugby league club in history and all good things like that.

He’s very welcome.

Well James Graham has hung around and I am pretty sure a few of the burgess bros have stayed.

You get a 4 year contract you can get PR. Heck it's PNG and as you say, min wage is $11 a day! (Most places don't pay that, many don't even pay).

It's weird with Mason, every time I saw him play Fullback it was like "You have done everything right but score". I feel he does a good "cover" job but isn't at first grade standard.

We can run with TDS and Mason on the bench with Latu at 5/8 or 7. But we really are lightening our side in the forwards and we will get caught out.
