    New job for assistant coach

    Giving huge long term contracts can also work the other way in creating comfortability. I see it in soccer a lot overseas. still unsure of us doing this as most teams don't??? If Ola and Paseka end up like Tom with the injuries we are in for years of salary cap restraints. DCE did turn out great...

    2026 recruitment & retention

    There must be some young second rower on the left hand side who must see that we have this amazing opportunity to literally come in and start. Got to be a few Panthers, Canberra, Kiwi or Brisbane kids parked in behind established players. look at the hooker, come from ressies and straight in and...

    Great stuff again Joe!! So appreciated by all of us. Great to see several kids coming through that have a top chance of getting near NRL. Laifai, Mihinui, Campbell Munn, F.Tuionetoa and more. It will be good to watch their progress and others in the next few years.

    Hi Joe, this comment interested me by you: To be honest I would have signed Mihinui to a deal before him, Is this kid leaving?? Or we can't hand out bigger contracts to everyone? What's he like as a player?

    The Anthony Seibold Grievances MEGA THREAD

    No coach could get around the madness Tom and Jake amounts in long term contracts. It has hamstrung the club for sure.

    Sell-out Brookie Crowds

    It shows we need an upgrade to Brookie as more fans ae coming than ever. I reckon a lot would come on the day but sold out ends that too.

    Turbo good to go

    Reminds me of the Buddy Franklin debacle of the long contract. I really hope Ole doesn't end up the same.

    The Anthony Seibold Grievances MEGA THREAD

    We seem to have big old style forwards and as the game progressed, the steam ran out of them quickly. Too slow and all too cumbersome.

    Lodge, you Monster

    I think potentially it's obvious Lodge will be the leader. Paseka doesn't have that in him but Lodge will definitely lift P's game.

    A Watmough would be a godsend.

    Issue will be upgrades to Lodge and probably Brown. Smart move not signing Lodge yet as if he does something again, he won't come back anywhere near what he may be now. Tommy T issue. Get rid of Josh A and that will free up dough, like Christian T to dragons (good move)

    2026 recruitment & retention

    I know it's the same in other sports My Manchester United soccer team have held onto and kept re-signing guys who are really good, but constantly injured in the hope they will come good. They never do. It's why Penrith do so well, lack of injuries to key players.

    Josh gone, Aloili released to super league, a lot of money there.

    2026 recruitment & retention

    You had to take Brooks to take the pressure off an aging DCE. Ben T has been given a go. Paulo came straight in. Lehi is talked up and I think managed well with his size at present. Gordon and Jamie could get a chance this week.

    2026 recruitment & retention

    This is the guy we need!! we need a top class 9 and he is it. Perfect opportunity and him playing in ressies is madness. He would want out. Cook would see Brooks, Lodge and Brown and see the fresh start, redemption and opportunity at Manly.

    Manase Fainu - Discussion

    I've said it a while ago, this kid was going to be a superstar and it's all gone. He would have been our starting hooker for 10 years and set him and his family up like Ola did. I worry for Josh as well.

    Article by Paul Kent in tomorrow's paper

    You can't blame Keith's death in 2020 for this. All of us have had to move on with loss of family and friends. It's probably a case of Josh not loving footy, maybe he's always felt the pressure to make the big money for the family and set them up for life. You see other similar kids loving it...

    I'm sure we all hope Josh fires up. It will help us immensely as he is, and as so many say, hugely talented.

    The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)

    This case is so odd as at 600k plus we have this guy for quite a few years already has never really shown much at all. Currently not even considered for first grade at present and for years we have talked about his weight and subsequent injuries and he's signed until end of 2027. Seems to have...
