Godinet IMO is a centre

Definitely. A Staggs type

Someone will suggest he move to the back row at some point.

I’d be looking at getting Cook away from the dragons this year . Especially if they’re not renewing him .
He’s got maybe 2 years left , including this one . So 18month deal , gives Heyward now 3 blokes in front of him , which slows down any desire to debut him early , and allows him time to move forward , ready to go when he’s 21/22 in 2028.

Cook has joined the tigers, castleford tho

More & more impressed with Luke Jack out of the KOE team each time I see him

tyson smoothy has reached out to the club around a move (as well as basically everyone else)

can play 9/12/13

doubt it happens, not much of an appetite from us

Weird aye seen he has an E Book coming out like wtf? Not sure if it's his or his parents doing but the kid hasn't even played a game of NRL yet.

I've never minded him to be honest. I'd prefer him to Hope as a stopgap until Heywood is ready.

We'd be silly to pass it up... much better then Hope & gives Haywood more time.

I doubt we'd engage yet with Smoothy until we give Tristan Hope every chance. If Hope doesn't meet Benji's expectations over the coming weeks, then perhaps.

That’d be Tim Sheens.

Paul Alamoti going to test his value on the open market. We should be all over this. Gun right centre who can also goal kick.

Yes please....would be for 28, PNG and Penrith probably in the box seat:

"Every player is trying to look after themselves first and foremost, so that's the main thing"

Don’t be surprised to see Martin, Yeo and Cleary all go up there in 28. What more is there to achieve at the Panthers? They could easily have another premiership by the end of 27. They could link up with their boy and suddenly the band is back together. To’o might go as well.

be mad if they didn't cash in

PNG will definitely get a piece of the Panthers. The only question is how big of a piece

 

[Merlot]

Part of me wants to see PNG that well stacked (Aussie rep team n bench} signed ,just to prove what a fool's belief it has always been - 'The Salary Cap"

PNG get a leg up WA get none - as of yet .rules are rules for some .PVL has to be at his best to hose down the coming backlash

I think that would be great or at least an origin line up


It would have been interesting if each player for the first 5 years received a $125K a year sign on bonus per year tax free

A one year contract 125K
A two year contract $250k
A three year contract 375K

And so on I think that would have been better

And I also think the bears players should receive a 50K a year travel bonus per year for the first 5 years then 30K a year for the next 5 just to help getting players over there moving costs and family travel

I don't understand why do it if your not willing to help out the NRL should have done better

 

[Merlot]

that 4mill one of paid for each club to be happy that PNG get a 3 mill leg up per year at tax payers expense (3 mill goes to other pacific nations ) is payed out of the NRL cash register, or another side bet from the Oz gov that we can keep the yellow invasion at bay

i like your longevity bonuses,PVL stated that the Dolphins as it ended up ,or any team entering the NRL under his watch ,will not get a dispensation ,heritage olde times for teams that forged this game blah blah , Its ok to change tact , do as afl do ,plz be honest with the true life blood of the game, us commoners that are looking to stretch the family budget to go to the footy
