    Hoppa "MUST" be in the 17

    Number 1 priority IMO for the backline this year is Garrick not to play centre again. So unless Lehi can play centre (which I think he could in time after putting on some size, similar to Will) then Koula and Talau should be the centres, and no backrow move for Talau. Which I do understand the...

    [Resurrected] Lachlan Croker

    All the best to Croker but his injury is definitely a boost to the team. Had a few instances in recent years (especially under Des) where an injury has forced a change for the better of the side and that will certainly be the case here. Hopefully Simpkin can get off to a good start with a...

    If we are to go all the way in 2025 who is in our 17?

    I just can't fathom Garrick playing in the centres again after how this year panned out. Sure he might improve there but I don't think we can be taking such chances when we are supposedly in a premiership window with DCE potentially in his last year. When you also consider we have both Talau and...

    [Resurrected] Gordon Chan Kum Tong

    I still think Gordie has a bit to offer but can't see him ever being a starting hooker with his size limitations.. but with his energy and running game could still be a handy #14 going forward. Just needs to work on some parts of his game and get rid of the pause before passing, he's still only...

    The Daly Cherrygraph

    Turbo at 6 could work if we had a 7 who just focused on kicking and steering the team around the park - like Fogarty at the Raiders (who I'd love as a stopgap option if the young guys aren't quite ready post DCE, also a great goalkicker) Unfortunately we have enough evidence in the Souths game...

    One has to go ... who ?

    I think Talau may end up being the odd man out given he is off contract at the end of next season. Which is a shame really as he had such a great year and proved valuable in both the centres and on the wing. Wouldn't mind seeing us try to transition him into the backrow given our weaknesses...

    Who’s “ stepping up” in 2025

    Burbo absolutely has to step up. Has nearly 50 games to his belt now and is probably the best of a bad bunch of left edge second rowers over Waddell and Chee Kam. Given he lost his starting spot this year to our backup hooker Lawton and is now likely to get that spot back, he should be under...

    2026 recruitment & retention

    Agree completely. Our best stretch last season was definitely with Simpkin at 9 and Gordie 14 and I suspect Seibold felt pressured to bring Croker back in once he was healthy again. Simpkin admittedly didn't have his best game the first time we lost to the Roosters so Seibs would've seen that as...

    Bateman

    Matterson and James being upgraded to the top 30 after a combined 11 minutes of NRL action in 2024 is certainly a choice. And is Walsh really going to be in the 30 as well? He'd have a less than 5% chance of playing NRL next year, should swap with Lehi on the development list. That's three...

    2025 Draw

    Fantastic draw. Obviously can't predict for sure how much better or worse teams will be next year but having 5 of our first 7 at Brookvale and then our last five being against Raiders, Tigers, Phins, Dragons and Warriors should mean we're a good chance of starting and finishing well. Bit dicey...

    2025 Draw

    Ehhh I'm a little bummed by it. Having missed the last couple of years I was pretty keen to make the trip up again, it's a great weekend away but not to be I guess. I know it's Magic Round and the NRL would expect crowds to show up anyway, but they also couldn't have put on a more bland round of...

    2025 Draw

    Given we won 8/10 at Brookie this year, and 6/16 away from there, I think it's fair to say we could've at least got the 2 points at home this year given the game was only separated by a point and the Broncos turned out to be a pretty ordinary team Nothing is guaranteed obviously, but we have...

    Aussie V Tonga Final

    The more I see of Lehi at fullback and Tom in the centres, the more interested I am in seeing us do it next year Tom did blow a try there not passing to Lomax but the roving role does seems to suit him more these days, and we wouldn’t have to see his nonexistent defence at fullback, an area...

    2026 recruitment & retention

    The last couple of lineups posted here look fantastic even if they are a bit unrealistic. Just dreaming a bit further here but a Garrick for May swap sounds pretty good. Roosters have lost Manu and Suaali'i so he can keep playing his favourite position there and they'll also need a kicker while...

    Move Heaven and Earth...

    Fun fact: May had more offloads this year than Paseka, Aloiai, Jurbo, Brown, Bullemor, Sipley and Lodge did COMBINED. He is the actual definition of what we need - a mobile prop that can play big minutes and move the ball around, similar to what we had with AFB. He's the exact type of prop we...

    Good or bad idea?

    Must not have been able to find the $500k he was looking for when we were rumoured to him earlier in the month. Not sure what people are expecting but he will be 33 going into next season, didn't play a game this year even before being sacked and failed a medical at the Dogs. I guess it's only...

    [Resurrected] Paseka

    Paseka and Bullemor are our only middles worth anything and yet Bully is unsigned beyond next year, which is absolutely mental considering we've extended Aloiai and Waddell until 2027. I feel we are at a bit of a crossroads next year with DCE maybe or maybe not retiring, quality players like...

    2025 Draw

    I quite enjoy attending Magic Round and would hope we don't have the bye next year just because we're not giving the Broncos another home game for the 10th year in a row... Not expecting the draw to be too different next year. No one cares about Cronulla so they will continue to get 2x games...
