It's ordinary as it gets.

2026? What are we thinking?

14. Mavrik Geyer [ backrow/centre utiltiy]
15. Alex Seyfarth [impact prop / hitman ]
16. Ethan Roberts [ prop / backrow utility ]
17. Royce Hunt [ impact prop ]

That’s really no better than we have now

Asu kepaoa still can't make the Penrith team.

didnt he sign for one of the qld teams ??

I think Ethan Roberts will surprise a few. He's behind quite an established list at the Roosters.

hopefully it’s not about to backfire on him

Hopefully it does

Nothing was forced on him. I just absolutely disagree with this narrative that we took this amazing player and made him crap. He never took his own game to the next level. He just hasn't got the personality to be a top footy player. He has zero vision for what's happening in a match. Struggles to build connections with halves partners. He is just fully absorbed in his own game/performance while trying not to make mistakes.

Agree to disagree.

Its like taking an IT system administrator and moving them to a building site as scaffolder, then saying they struggled to take their role to the next level... Ofcourse they are going to be worried about mistakes, they aren't comfortable doing what they are!!

Have you actually seen Ethan Roberts play ?
And Just FYI
I think the bench will be;
Hayward/Hope/Latu/AD
Sione Fainu/Pole/ prop signing
Seyfarth/hunt/ which ever loser of the line above
Geyer/Roberts/Sukkar .
How anyone is saying that’s worse than this year has rocks in their heads . That’s infinitely better .
Ethan Roberts is a gun . Plays like the Butcher brothers , with a bit of Angus Chricton . He could very well be turned into a middle and be that prop .
There’s way more depth next year . KPP and Makasini will push out players like Seyfarth , Toa , Sukkar , Murray etc.
the team is way better next year even if you just simply go like for from squad players 25 and beyond . Passengers like Tumeth , Feledy and Matamua . Are now replaced by guys who can and will and have played first grade and made an impact . Roberts would have played for the chooks already if not for signing with us .
