    I love this Politis handshake narrative that is spun in the media from time to time; how many players have the Roosters cast off over the years? I recall favourite son and premiership winning halfback Mitchell Pearce on a bus to Newcastle. I remember Kyle Flanagan on the scrap heap after one...

    I think Ricky has done well in Canberra, regardless of winning % and what not. He's had a very difficult time recruiting talent to the nations capital and done well to think outside the box to build a competitive roster, i.e. UK signings, untried rookies, etc. I think most coaches would...

    NSW Cup 2025

    Really promising tackle efficiency from all involved 😂

    I think there’s something bigger happening at Penrith. JFH is pretty much the only player missing from the pack that won the comp last year. They’ve been up for a long time and a few losses to start the year tested their resolve and they haven’t got the desire to fight their way out of it. The...

    Young Forwards - Do we have any?

    Pretty sure the Roosters have been feeding off the area for decades.

    Tommy Talau

    I think you’re right!

    Haumole to the middle?

    I don’t think so. For three reasons: 1. He is the primary point of attack on the right edge and not just when he gets the ball, but when he attracts defenders to free up outside men, e.g. couple of tries he had an impact on against Penrith. 2. he will fatigue and that’ll nullify his impact. He...

    Just in the ballpark, I think. They can take less but not considerably less. It also must be a percentage because Glenn Stewart’s contract was not that big a gap but we couldn’t get it over the line.

    The real premiership window - 2027 onwards

    This is a good take on things. I have no problem with paying 3 players an average of a million bucks; that’s not the problem, per se. It’s pretty normal. The problem is what you get in return for that investment. When those deals were done, the return was pretty good, but circumstances have...

    The way he is spoken of here at times, you could be forgiven for thinking he’s a star.

    Young Forwards - Do we have any?

    The Roosters are smart in their ability to get quality talent into the ranks very early; they claim them as juniors but they're not local boys. They've just been brought to the club at Harold Matts level. We should do the same but we look in the wrong places. Western Sydney is a market flooded...

    Young Forwards - Do we have any?

    He's not slow at all. He's actually very quick. However, he has close to the worst service I have ever seen from a FG 9. So I agree, he is a waste of time for our development team, but I wouldn't count speed as one of the issues.

    Tommy Talau

    Talau is the most overrated player on these boards. He had a decent season last year and is good depth in the outside backs. He is a solid first grader and on par with Saab for what he can bring. Where Saab has pace and height, Talau has a better yardage carry, hands and game awareness. They...

    Sea Eagles' Feet of Clay

    I think trying to take 10 years of failure and hinge it on a couple of issues is misguided. There have been so many variables in that time that have contributed to missing the mark and/or abject failure. 2015 - Toovey happened to be coaching at time when a number of our premiership stars were...

    Sack Spoony Siebold

    yeah I think he is a better option than Hannay.

    Sack Spoony Siebold

    I'm not in the sack Seibs camp because I think rebuilds set clubs back years. With a better roster, I think he can do OK. However, I don't feel a strong connection to this roster. I don't feel passionate about our players. I like the Trbo's, Garrick, Hoppa, Koula, Bully, Ola, and Croker, but the...

    Tom Trbojevic was a Legend

    Yeah, I thought he was running a little more freely last night; it was only 6 months ago that he carved up for Australia and showed some genuine speed.

    Tom Trbojevic was a Legend

    What are you smoking? He's injury prone and his body is breaking down but he is holding onto hope. Lets not diagnose him with a developmental condition on the basis that he didn't have a good game last night.

    Sack Spoony Siebold

    like most threads on Silvertails, it’s the players OR the coach, not both! Why? I see players that aren’t up to and they are the ones missing tackles and making poor reads. But a number of those players were recruited by the coach. He’s assembled a Dad’s Army forward pack and it’s getting owned...
