    2022 Top 8 etc - Fearless Predictions .. or You're Dreaming!

    3rd at season's end. Turbo Dally M again. Bullemore to be a crowd favourite. Keppie, Paseka, Davey and Olakau-atu to have big season's. Garrick to top scorer again. Schuster to get back to his creative best. Koula to debut and we will all want him to play all year but probably won't. Fainu to...

    Its a shame about Funa, he always looked a gun when playing centre but never really got a chance to prove himself there. I can only assume Funa chose to leave as opposed to us not wanting to keep him. At least it shows we are still looking for depth in the backs.

    Dale Copley

    Whether we were actively chasing him or just enquired about his services I actually like the idea of adding an experienced centre like Copley, someone who would be happy being in a squad and only being used when/if required. Not sure what other experienced centres are still available but I like...

    [Resurrected] Zac Saddler

    I mentioned this a couple months ago but Saddler has signed with Tuggeranong Bushrangers in Canberra local comp. There were reports he was with Broncos on a train n trial but I have just been Informed again he is definitely playing for my old club in Canberra. Apparently over all the NRL grind

    Brookvale Centre of excellence

    Interesting it sounds like the change rooms will be part of the centre of excellence and enter the ground via a tunnel. Im sure the players will ne happy!

    What's needed to get us to the next level??

    To be fair Sualii was only 17. Agree he didn't offer much but what 17 year old would stand out at NRL level? Same kind of argument could be used for Schuster, the way some carried on about him you'd think he was an immortal in waiting too but if you watched some of his performances you'd be...

    The squad takes shape

    Interesting to see we got Fletcher Myers. I believe he was that tall young fullback/centre from Knights? He looks a massive talent! I'd expect Troy Dargan to get the 29th spot and leave the 30th open until we hear the outcome of Fainu's case. If cleared, he would become the 30th. Fletcher...

    What if one opportunity could change our destiny ?

    I like the look of him. Cust replacement! I'm sure he will do a good job if called upon.

    What's needed to get us to the next level??

    Sounds the goods. Sounds a very similar player to Fainu and at 19 probably isnt too far off a debut this year. Could be a smoke utility later in the season.

    Ethan Bullemor

    Against popular opinion id still start Schuster on the bench. Bullemore and Olakau-atu start on backrow.

    Ethan Bullemor

    I mentioned this when we first signed him. Definitely more of an edge player at this time of his career and could easily play centre and do it very well. He is quicker, stronger and more agile than any of our current centre options bar Koula.

    NRL 360 - The word of Kenty.

    I got to the point where I stopped watching. I couldn't handle papa surf Kent carrying on like a pork chop and arguing intensely over minor things even when he was clearly wrong! A bit of arguing and tone is fine but he was WAY over the top!

    UFO's at training

    Just throwing out an idea. Could Weekes play #14 and spend some time in hooker? I really see him as a fullback. Obviously a big ask defensively in the middle but he has speed and ball skills, maybe a way to ease him into the 17?

    Manase Fainu

    Had a mate of mine whos shoulder would pop out all the time. Surgery after surgery wouldn't fix it to the point he stopped getting surgery and used to just pop it back in during a game and keep playing. Needless to say he is not in such a good way now.

    UFO's at training

    Agreed. I dont like him as a half and I've made that obvious a few times but he has the potential to be a good fullback. He has speed to burn and some decent ball playing ability. We need him and Koula to step up and be ready. Maybe they are the reason Des isn't looking for backs? Maybe he's...

    The squad takes shape

    Seems a genuine half with great vision, a decent running game and not afraid to pull off a big play. His style actually reminded me of a Tyson Gamble. Already played a couple NRL games so could be a handy back up!

    Manase Fainu

    The problem arises if Croker goes down for an extended period. We then only have Lawton as our only option and he is a part time hooker himself. What happens if Lawton and Croker are out? Does Jake go to #9 and Walker #13? This is the only other real option we have. Des certainly seems happy...

    Manase Fainu

    His latest instagram post has him in a shoulder sling again. Fair to say he's shoulder is cooked! Even without his trial we probably wouldn't have seen him on the field regardless. This is what his 3rd or 4th operation? And 3 years out of the game. At best I reckon he will only be a 30 minute...

    more COVID discussion

    Am I ri Am I right in saying that at this stage Singe is and always was allowed to train them providing he sticks to certain rules and restrictions including wearing a mask. If he just had his mask on then there would be no issue? I do agree however that Manky has clearly dropped the ball when...

    [Resurrected] Jarryd Hayne, the (forgotten) locked up man

    I actually believe his story. Her story has holes in it left, right and centre. There is a txt msg that she sent to her friends saying that she can't remember if she consented or not. She has said that he forced his hand down her pants but in another story says that he just started feeling her...
