šÆ correct.Yep he was starting off the bench and playing 60-65 minutes. It's his sweet spot. Even Madge has recognised that this is how you get the best out of Payne Haas, even though he can also play the full 80 when required.

Not the figures I heardā¦.swap them around closer to the markTigers $250k

Nice work Souths
Glebe?IMHO, Seyfarth's best position is to join Nofoaluma ASAP.
Truscott St Primary!! Used to ride our bikes around the school buildings on weekends (lots of blind corners, many many crashes).Then head down to the Golf Range on Epping Road and pinch the golf balls. Good DaysI was in Morshead street near the school (our where the school was) been told you wouldn't recognise the place now.
The āpride of the league ā ⦠what a joke.Here's the story from behind the paywall ...
Bud Sullivan will remain at South Sydney for the next two years ā and has taken a $100,000-per-season pay cut to do so.
Sullivan joined Wests Tigers on a lucrative four-year deal ahead of 2024 season, but made only eight appearances before being loaned out to the Rabbitohs for this year. Under the terms of the arrangement, Sullivan was required to return to the Tigers at the end of this season unless the parties came to a new arrangement.
That has come to pass after Sullivan agreed terms on a Souths extension. The deal was made possible after the Tigers agreed to pay part of his freight, while Sullivan himself had to take a wage cut. The former Dragons half will leave a six-figure sum on the table, a price he is willing to pay to continue to learn under Wayne Bennett.
The deal appears to be a win-win for all parties. Sullivan originally moved because it appeared he would be stuck behind Jahrome Luai and Lachlan Galvin, although the latter ended up joining the Bulldogs. That still left the Tigers with Luai, Adam Doueihi and Latu Fainu as halves options, while also bolstering the Rabbitohsā playmaking stocks.
Souths have made no secret of their desire to offload Lewis Dodd, who has two years remaining on his contract and has only been activated at NRL level when all other options were extinguished.
Sullivan agreed terms with Souths at the same time veteran five-eighth Cody Walker re-signed for 2026. Other playmaking options for next year include incoming Dragons halfback Jonah Glover, Jamie Humphreys and Ashton Ward.
Only injuries prevented Sullivan adding to the 13 games he has played for the Rabbitohs to date.
Meanwhile, the āPride of the Leagueā is close to doing a deal that will result in David Fifita moving across from the Titans. The transfer will be expedited if they are able to move on Dodd, or if prop David Moale ā granted permission to negotiate with rivals ā finds a new club.
The retention of Sullivan and Walker provides stability after an injury-interrupted season.
āThis is a special group of people we have here at South Sydney ā players, coaches, administration, members and fans ā and Iām certain we can achieve some great things in the coming years,ā Walker said in a statement.
āThere are some wonderful young talents in our playing group and I see my role as helping mentor them to become regular NRL players, whilst also producing top performances of my own on the field for the team. I know we can achieve great things and I want to be part of that.
āBut what is really important to my partner Amy and I is that our family loves this club, and we feel like we are part of the Rabbitohs family. My boys are growing up as Rabbitohs. My eldest son, Kian, has earned his own red and green jersey in the junior rep development teams; my middle son, Kade, is beside me on the field as a ballboy; and my baby son, Kora, is starting to recognise the Rabbitohs logo and the colours that we all represent.
āAmy and I also have a little girl arriving in December and Iām certain she will be a little Rabbitoh too! This is a special place.ā

Yeah he does balls things up but atleast he has a go.
I tend to think KPP will improve our team. He has been consistently good for the Knights and we would benefit from a low maintenance player who performs on a modest contract.Andrew johns also says starford toa is the greatest thing to come out of newy unfortunately johnsys views are a bit tainted by various substances
Thanks. No wonder I didn't know what it was. Not a fan of Jim Carry's 'humour' - he's about as funny as Reece Walsh.Thereās a documentary about it, names were changed to protect privacy but the resemblance is uncanny.
The only similarity between May & Haas is minutes on the field.
I've started thinking of Terrell May more in terms of Yeoh. Hit-ups, but just as likely to be a ball player at the line. It's up to guys like Sione, Pole, Hunt to get the impact running metres.
Twal is the classic working prop (who hits harder than given credit for). He just happens to wear #13.
But that could EASILY be Twal in #8 & May in #13 and have exactly the same game plan.

There is a bit of criticism of Seyfarth but he'll thrive with the increased competition for positions next year. Marshall will know Seyfarth will work hard in the pre-season to improve, thereby driving the squad to work harder. It seems like big win for the squad.
I put Seyfarth as 18 man because our forwards need to be stronger if we are to make the finals in 2026. I agree with you that we need a hard hitting forward or two in the 17 (hopefully these are signed in the offseason). If someoneās form drops or there is an injury Iām happy for Seyfarth to be in the 17 covering middle and edge. At this stage Iād have Sione over him for that role.Seyfarth in my opinion should be in the 17. Name me another forward we have that you wouldn't want to run at?
May no.
Pole no.
Sam no.
Kpp no.
Sione no.
Twal no.
Seyfarth is the only one that shows mongrel, gets it wrong granted but I'm not running at him
Terrell is able to go harder but needs to pace himself because we donāt have other high quality middles to take more of the load off him. If we had another starting prop that could go with Terrell for the first 20mins then Terrell could go harder.Terrell has been running harder of late. Think he understands why he didn't make NSW (even though it's still BS) and wants to develop his game.
