Walsh can find that extra gear when needed.
Bula cant....if he could hed have 6 to 8 more tries this year.
Would be nice to have just one player that can burn the opp with just pure speed

Bula is fast over long distances. His acceleration over 5 to 10m is only average.

who keeps saying we ain’t fast

2) Toby Couchman
3) Fonua Pole

100% the big fella kept up with lomax

Would'nt mind getting Tommy back at the right price.

I was thinking Gordan CKT would offer plenty as a 9/13 hybrid

Maybe… won’t be the end of the world …as you say they have more to play for at the end of the day …

Not really we are close to full strength in what many of our fans believe is a genuine top 8 team next season .
This is a good chance to prove their ability.
I’m expecting our million dollar fullback and even more expensive 5/8 to carve up a team who are noted poor defenders.

True, but at this stage if we get two injuries to our outside backs we don’t really have anyone as a genuine NRL quality replacement.
Two injuries can happen.

Also, we have Taylan May.

I mean the guy is great. He is clearly a great footballer. Yet people were criticising Chris Sandow on here re his tempermant and... May is making Sandow look level headed..

I really don't want us hiring depth in the backs. I really really dont' want us too, yet I can imagine May doing something stupid sooner or later.

I woudl really like it if we only had one reserve back. ... Sadly we may need 2.

Supposedly he is the 2nd fastest fullback in the comp behind Kaio Weekes

obviously prefer they win ..but win or lose today and having either 9 or 10 wins for the season will count for little difference come Round 1 2026…

 

[cqtiger]

Is it true that the last time the Tigers won the last game of the regular season was 2017?

Not quick enough between the ears in terms of his football instincts, though.
Athletic & seems like a terrific young bloke, but not sure how much more he has.

Adam Elliot or Corey Jensen to lead our forwards and lift them off the bench

Definitely need an aggressive middle so we can keep Pole as far away from the team as possible

 

[Bellend]

Need inject of Mongrel x 2, Ray Stone off the bench tone setter Curey Jensen, Davey M

I have a feeling we end the season an a bad note. The Leichhardt loss was huge. 3 in a row for the first time in ages. And now we could lose 3 in a row. Titans will be up for Dessy and Foran. They have nothing to lose. Their attack can score at any time. Our attack is very disjointed. Titans in a error-riddled game for me. The Raiders game was a loss but the boys played well. Don't think they have consistency to back it up

Nostradamus

I had a few smartasses have a go at me. It's not pessimistic. It's being realistic. I celebrated the team last week because they were actually good even though they lost and never looked like winning

 

[hsvjones]

TBF Richo and Benji know exactly what we need and have faith in them to buy the right players. Unfortunately, it takes time to turn over a roster, but he has done a great job so far so will trust him.
