    Run Koula Run

    I still maintain that Tolu is NOT a centre. I have always seen him as a winger in the Brian To'o mould. Lightning fast and strong. Lehi on the other hand should be his centre. Much more creative and smart (footy wise). Something I think Siebold should consider. Much better fit imo.

    > Siosiua Taukeiaho < - wrong name - right place

    I thought he played well. Particularly given this was his first major hit out in 2 years. He certainly has a strong presence about him that we have lacked over last few seasons. If he can stay fit he will be a major addition to our forwards this year.

    Taniela Paseka ... it's time ..

    Taniela has progressed well over the last few years. Indispensable to our 17 and integral cog I think to us potentially winning a GF. He is not the Alpha beast some of us want him to be and he is certainly not the leader of our pack. Nor will he ever be (IMO). But still a massive part of our...

    One has to go ... who ?

    Because the issue we have is in the forwards....not the backs. The other option I see is Tolu going to 14 on the bench and Tommy Talau staying in the centres. Got to have both guys in the 17.

    One has to go ... who ?

    Just looking at the pics of our 2025 Season Launch on the Eagles website. There is one pic there of Haumole and Tommy Talau (and Simkins). Got to say TT is almost same size as Haumole. I could not help thinking (potentially) what a great backrow combination that might make. Also solves our...

    Trial V Panthers

    $42 for one to sit on the hill and $180 odd for a family!!! Throw in a few pies and drinks and you are paying $250 to take your kids to a bloody trial game. Ridiculous pricing given the entire Penrith 1st grade side overseas. Not sure which genius at the Tigers made this decision but obviously...

    Taniela Paseka is he the answer?

    Good answer to this 5 year old mystery. He is either the longest maturing prop forward in rugba league history or what you seeing is what you are actually getting. I am not sure tbh but happy that he is signed and happy to have him in our 17 each week. He is definitely part of the answer.

    Trial V Wabbits

    I was particularly interested in watching Chris Patolo in action on Saturday. Got to say somewhat underwhelming compared to what I was expecting. Limited minutes I know and he did nothing wrong but after watching the videos on the guy, I was certainly expecting more from him. On that...

    Jacob Arthur

    I think you are a hard marker. Yes I remember the play and you are probably right. I also remember numerous occasions over the last few seasons where our highly experienced Australian and SOO halfback continually jumping out of our defensive line to open up a massive gaps for the opposition. If...

    Jacob Arthur

    Surprised not a lot of commentary today on Jake Arthur. I thought he was close to my MOM. Set up a lot of our attacking raids and organised the team really well across the park. Also his defence has stepped up big time from last I saw him play. Thought he played the full 80 minutes also??

    The Luke Brooks Book Thread.

    I think he was easily the buy of the season for us and agree that he has another gear there. I thought he was coming into his own towards the end of last season so will be interesting to see if he icks up where he left off. Amazing durability with 25 games in his 1st year with us. Gotta love...

    Club News 2025

    Is Saaby missing from the 4Pines Renewal pic on the Eagles website?? I thought it was him at the back but pretty sure it's Navreen Willett.

    Trial Games

    Same. Particularly interested in Patolo. Quite impressive on some of the video shorts and big wraps from some of my Bulldogs friends but been hampered with injuries last two seasons. Fingers crossed for the guy but could solve a few issues in our forwards this year with a strong showing. With...

    DCE to announce retierment

    Actually I think that's when our premiership window opens (26). Hopefully a new / younger spine and one or two more mobile forwards. Backline should hold almost as is with likely Turbo at centre and Lehi at FB. Whole different side and a real serious Premiership contender for a few years. Plenty...
