2026 recruitment & retention

Gee wiz we need nearly a whole new forward pack.... Turbo time to cough up and leave or take a Huge Pay Cut!
 
I’m not aware of any up and comes in our NSW cup or juniors ready for a step up. We might need to think outside the box and bring in 2 or 3 of the best Super league 22-25 year olds and look for that more mobile forward pack that’s use to playing an open style of play.

I hated the look of our pack for this match when I saw the team sheet. It only got worse when half of the pack had to play in the backline.

If either of Taukeiaho or Aloiai had played, or Hoppa had stayed on the park, we would have got the job done I reckon.

Junior Nsemba would be amazing
 
We need younger players, not players waiting in the departure lounge for their last pay check. Des in his prime could have made these players work but not our current coach and speaking of Des, he will have his team primed to put us to the sword next week on Friday the 13th to add another nail to our coffin, he will want this game
 
Junior Nsemba...He looks good for a 20 year old. Probably has a lot to learn but would be amazing with an off season here. Probably would be the right price to take a chance on.

Agreed - beast potential
I don't mind another pommie in Knights backrower Price Paul, destroyed us 2nd half last night, but then again not hard running through wet tissue paper
 
So I was just reading about Fletcher Baker being shopped around. Does anyone know if he would be worth looking at? I seem to remember not that long ago, some on here were talking him up.
 
I would be going after T wishart from Melbourne, he's a gun!
Not sure. Seems like one of those players who excels in their system, but might just be average elsewhere. That’s the beauty of their system - they all have very specific well defined roles which they focus on and that makes them stand out. In our, let’s say, less structured system, it’s more likely than not he would try to do a bit of everything and not do any of it as well.

I remember watching him live at North Sydney Oval when he was playing with the Bears vs Blacktown.
He hit the ball up so hard from the kick off, skidded 3 of our players and knocked Morgan Boyle clean out. He was out on the ground and seemed like an eternity.
I remember thinking to myself this guy is a real handful.
Every time he had the ball he made an imprint. Not sure of his current form though.
