    2026 recruitment & retention

    Like what we are doing with Choc in Shield.

    2026 recruitment & retention

    I don't blame the boys for taking better deals. This is a small window in their lives and they won't ever receive this type of money again. I could see them at Perth, etc for sure. Good on them.

    Juniors Discussion Thread

    Joe, we all appreciate your knowledge and information about the juniors. I've always been a fan, but can't make it there anymore. It's nice to know names to watch and see progress. Thanks as always. Darren

    Keep Burbo and let Tom and Jake go. Koula, Lehi, Garrick, saab, Joey and Fogarty are the future.

    He's struggling at Manly, let alone origin.

    Hard to believe we have no one in origin yet we are salary capped stuffed. What a mess the powers to be have caused.

    The Daly Cherrygraph

    I picked this up in an article today and it's an absolute joke that the salary cap is with the Roosters. The fine print. This team is a young team on the way up. They have Sammy Walker and they have got Hugo Savala, who I think is a great foil for Sam Walker. "Then you've got Sandon Smith...

    Do you think by the end of another year, Jake will have massive offere elsewhere? Panthers, Roosters, etc. It will be mercenaries like Perth.

    Juniors Discussion Thread

    I think the focus on local juniors reminds me when I used to go and watch 15-25 years ago with Matts and Ball on a regular basis. The local kids would get smashed and very little talent. I sat one day at St George and it was 40 or 50 nil in one game and it was only half time. I personally liked...

    Jake T.

    Wonder if the UK would come in for him at the end of the season if we pay half his wage etc. It would still help in 2026.

    NSW Cup 2025

    Laifai is an interesting one. Impressive size and runs hard. They need to manage him well as he could become a gun in a few years. I'm guessing 17 or 18?

    Rebuild at what cost?

    Manese would have been our Cam Smith so he was a lost one for sure. Except for the Menzies group, Tooves, Choc etc, we have had few kids come through, except the current brothers. The Hoppa's were a chance but it ended up badly except for Lehi. Our juniors got smashed this year.

    Young Forwards - Do we have any?

    Lost Samuela as well. We did sign the Large brothers and Joey. I've said many times why can't we find a young forward that will literally come straight into the top squad.

    Galvin

    Smart also offering him millions in contract to stuff up the Dogs and Roosters who will sign him for much less and get around the cap.
