    I sure hope it’s the dream team of Peter Sharp and Twent Barrett. They’re the only ones who can save us now. Worse still, DCE?

    So now we have no attacking coach at all? Great job club. You’ve sacked someone with no replacement. This is like the Eels sacking BA early to get Wayne, and failing miserably.

    Garrick general news thread

    Interestingly, out of all the articles that have linked him, his clients, and R360, Koula’s name has not appeared once. I’m not sure whether that’s something to read into or not, but basically every other high profile client was named, Koula the exception. Hopefully this means he has zero...

    Des Hasler Sacked ( AGAIN)

    Heard through the grapevine that Des will be on the NSW coaching team for next year. He was sent the contract this week. Not sure if Daley is on his way out, but I’ve heard that Dessie was pouring out excuses about how Daley is a “great coach” (kiss of death), so watch this space…

    2026 recruitment & retention

    Yes we have As in 2026? I would presume that if that were the case, we’d be getting Moale, and maybe offering Talau a reduced deal. iirc we offered Talau a deal for next season, he wanted more and turned it down. I wouldn’t mind giving him the same treatment we did for Lodge, as he would...

    Rugby League Round Table Season 3

    Koula has an option in his favour for 2027. He’s signed for next year, but effectively becomes off-contract on November 1st.

    Jack Bird

    So… we replace someone who would be really low in the pecking order, with someone who also will be really low in the pecking order. What’s the fuss about? You need these players. If it doesn’t pay off, we gain another depth second rower, on the level of MCK. If it does pay off, we might get a...

    Dragons on Fifita chase

    Would be the Patolo replacement in the NSW Cup side I would think? Not opposed to him returning whatsoever. Sometimes a return to home pastures helps these guys out. Kioa benefited, and I hope Feledy does too.

    2026 Rumoured and confirmed signings (NON-DISCUSSION THREAD).

    We’re apparently swapping Nathan Brown for Jack Bird. We have also brought back Viliami Fifita (probably NSW Cup contract I would think) https://archive.md/PIC1W

    Clean out + Wishlist

    I’m no Tigers expert, but iirc they had deadlines placed upon them accepting contract extensions. These deadlines were both short and completely unnecessary. It was a strange move that pissed those two off into leaving, and they would’ve otherwise stayed. They felt disrespected. They did the...

    Clean out + Wishlist

    I have some strong disagreements here. The first, and most important, is we cannot let the Turbos leave, much less clean them out. Forcing Jake, Tom, and Ben out the door, would be remembered in the same light as the Tigers forcing Moses and Tedesco out. A wooden spoon would just be a...

    Pacific Championships 2025

    Koula and Hopoate both named for the Tongan squad. By the looks of things, Hoppa will be their fullback again, and Koula will be their first choice centre. Eels fullback Iongi is also in the squad, but he’ll likely be the 6. No Taukeiaho, which is strange to me, but it’s an area where they are...

    2026 recruitment & retention

    Are you being serious? Hopoate had been a centre / fullback his entire career, until Seibold moved him to the wing last year. He made his NSW Cup debut in the centres, and stayed in that position for a good period of time. He was only moved to fullback due to the NSW Cup fullback not playing...

    2026 recruitment & retention

    For the next few years I think we should be running with something like this: 1. Turbo 2. Saab 3. Koula 4. Hoppa 5. Someone. On Saab, he will be better. He was missing running threats further in, in particular Olakau’atu and Paseka, and alongside a poor DCE, it really brought him down this...

    The Finals thread:

    And also the coach that supersedes him? I mean, that tracks given Penn runs the joint. I cannot wait for the new era under Sea Eagles legend Willie Mason.

    2026 recruitment & retention

    Not saying anyone else is better by any means, merely better value for the salary cap. Making grand finals is less about having good players, than it is about having them on good value. I don’t want us in a bidding war for a cog… That’s something we have stuffed up before (Jake).

    2026 recruitment & retention

    Don’t think it’ll bite us in the arse, but he’ll definitely be missed for his effort plays. He won’t be missed for the $600k the Bears will likely offer him.

    2026 recruitment & retention

    I’ll honestly be livid if DCE retires… All this kerfuffle, maybe 7000 posts on here, and the season gone, basically for nothing. He could’ve gone out in a much more delightful way. I seriously believe this guy isn’t very intelligent.

    Can we please buy a backrower Seibs

    I wouldn’t mind last year’s Crichton, but he’s 29 now, and will be 31 when he is off-contract again. I think we should be targeting long term prospects for 2027 and beyond. Also, didn’t he flat out reject us last year?

    Davvy Moale

    Lol, imagine the uproar. We finally sign a defensive mobile middle from a good system… only to then turn him into another makeshift hooker. I have a nagging feeling that Moale will also somehow find himself in NSW Cup behind Corey Eats.
