Top 30 2026

[Le Tiger]

I believe this is our currently contracted Top 30 for 2026.

1. Bula
2. Turuva
3. Toa
4. L Laulili
5. Skelton
6. Luai
7. L Fainu
8. May
9. Korisau
10. Pole
11. Sa Fainu
12. Pearce-Paul
13. Twal
14. Sullivan
15. Si Fainu
16. Bird
17. Seyfarth
18. Hunt
19. Sukkar
20. Mason
21. Makasini
22. K Laulili
23. Saukuru

Could assume Taylan May will get upgraded, Douehi maybe a 1 year deal, Bud may stay at Souths and Hope might get a year as a back up hooker.

Regardless, as it stands (unless I've missed someone) we have 7 spots to fill for next year.

Hopefully only max 2-3 are for juniors/best cup players and we can bring in 3/4 external first graders.

I would resign Staines, also I like to keep IzaacTu'itupou as backup backs for 2026. Not much from NSW cup that's worth a top 30 contract in my opinion

 

[Odessa]

Anyone know who are the top 30 from today 1 July for the rest of the year

If you watched the Tigers v Manly game I think everyone would agree we lack impact players- guys that have certain skills that are not taught- size, speed, leaping ability etc.

The club needs a few athletes added to the mix.

Speed is a big one. Taylan May should probably get another look. Tyrell Sloan adds speed. Jason Saab adds speed too.

Size...Isreal Leota from the Broncos is a big, powerful centre. David Fifita is a known quality- big, fast.

Lazarus Vaalepo from the Storm, Zyon Maiu'u from the Bulldogs...

Not saying EVERY addition needs to be an uber-athlete. But an addition of size & speed, just gives the club a different option to throw at teams.

You list a dozen names a week …

Why don’t we sign anyone ? ( sorry excluding KPP and Taylan)

Any of the Dev boys going straight into Top 30 or being retained for next year?
