2026 recruitment & retention

[SeaEagleRock8]

What are you yapping about? Form centre of the comp? 🤣🤣 a in form centre doesn’t get burnt like he did by Howarth the other week, completely embarrassing 1 on 1 defence.

Seb Kris is going great guns for raiders this year but Garrick did the same thing to him couple of weeks ago.
After your side is getting pumped a centre can find themselves a fraction on the wrong foot in defence, that's all it takes against good opposition

Garrick turns 30 in 27. I would take turbo on garrick money than keep garrick on the money he is now. Believe it or not. Turbo is the better player

Trbo is a better player but who’s the more reliable?? Who scores more points? Who’s mostly out injured? Who’s better value for money? Certainly not Trbo. Let’s agree to disagree mate.

Ok, you think he’s a good defender & I think he is a below average defender that makes poor decisions frequently. As MadMax said, agree to disagree

Guess that explains the PNG random guy burning him too in the PMs 13.

In all honesty, it's going to happen to every centre occasionally.....seems to happen a fair bit to ol Rubes in the centres unfortunately.

Forans still playing? No you must be kidding!

Back in round 9 he's a gun

… WAS a gun!

Just sayin’

Doesntmatta have just released Ofahengaue. Would be a cheap pickup. Thoughts.

Parramatta Eels make official call on Ofahengaue's future

They must be making room for Galvin 🤔

I’d be happy with Ofahengaue here 👍

So would I but Spoon recently upgraded Chee Kam to the top 30. The final spot in our roster went to a 33 yo journeyman. At least Spoon is consistent.

It said he was going to Leigh in the announcement anyway

Even Superleague clubs are recruiting better than us.

He was good last year

Can we stop pretending like Garrick is some gun centre now? Awful defence & that dumb grubber kick for a 7 tackle set 🤦‍♂️ him making a couple decent runs a game doesn’t make up for this, lucky Holmes hasn’t got a double already. Back on the wing or pack the bags, this is a failed experiment. 1 good game 2 or 3 bad games is what you get with Gaz, this guy getting spoken about for origin is comical

 

[Dion Johnson]

If the club miss out on Fogarty, Jake Clifford is not signed for next season, he is a hot and cold type player that does possess a good general kicking game, plays on the right edge and could fill a gap for a season or two.

Not the worst of footballers and won’t break the bank.

The more I see of Hoppa. I think that's our five eight moving forward. He goes fine running up the middle.

 

[Hertera]

Jake Clifford

Nope

 

[Ron E. Gibbs]

Except chances are he'll be needed at fullback. We just can't rely on Turbo being fit.

When he was one of our gun juniors, I always thought Gutho would make an excellent five-eight. Still do.

Agree he's a better winger, but in general Garrick is the least of our problems.

Not our biggest problem but that arms tackle attempt on Holmes in the 1st half really pi##ed me off. Lucky Saab got his finger tips to knock it down or it results in a try

No thanks. He has no natural ability to lead a side and cracks under pressure
