I don’t buy any of that… there is no way Benji would be disclosing or discussing such plans for next year at this stage of the 2026 season….

Everything we have heard(including the leak of the blowup on Thursday) in the media has come from the Douhei camp, viz Issac Moses. The so called layers of issues is meant/ designed to take the heat of Douhei deciding not to play on Saturday..z and not tarnish AD’s profile…there’s no coming back from this.. AD may have played his last game for the club…. Good riddance I say

If I was in Benjis place that’s exactly how I would have organised them. And had a feeling AD would react that way.
 
See you later Adam.

He is a good player but doesn’t have a position. Sometimes you have to go backwards to go forwards. I was surprised we re-signed him. We will be better off without him long term. I hope we can get a player swap from his new club (if not Perth or PNG!).

It’s all such a shame. Think AD would be a great 13. I hope everyone involved is alright. I know us as fans are hurting but must not be much fun to be anyone with close association with the playing group and coaches.

His defence has always been suspect. I worry about his motor too. I’d prefer to just buy a known commodity 13 than try and convert Adam.

Yes, his defense isn’t as good as his run game and yeah, be great to get someone else to play 14 coming on for 13. If AD is gone, I’d call Kurt Mann instantly.

I thought Luai played his heart out. Over paid and over rated- YES! But surrounded by mostly slow, mediocre players. He is not a one-man team. And a beaten pack.
Our forward pack lead by May is powder puff stuff at the moment. Stefo on fire.
Coaching Benji style or Bellamy style? And we let Cooper go, both who are better than May.
Our forward pack is out muscled by all the other packs. Light duties after 15 min.
No speed out the back either---centres, wingers and a fullback that can't get passed anyone.
Frustrating is being ever so polite.

That’s pretty much it in a nutshell , though may to me is just a bit tired of carrying the entire pack up the middle .. but yeah Bula cannot make a break at the moment, is not ever running to space from kicks, straight at the nearest defender and submits in the tackle. Turuva is out of form and out of position , the centres are terrible with may out, the wingers are turnstiles that cannot defend a kick and the second row do not run lines and always step in the direction the defence is coming from and never ever pass it to the outside runners .. we have had no penetration or line breaks outside the edges and the forwards got tired of dominating only to see the backs offfer NOTHING
