2026 recruitment & retention

[madmax]

Get him next year and it will be huge!

Pretty sure it’ll happen mate!

 

[Bomb Voyage]

Excellent, now hoping we can get it across the line for an early release for next year.

 

[double hoops]

Well. Thank **** for that.

 

[The Wheel]

Pretty sure it’ll happen mate!

Just need Bennett to get Fifita across the line

 

[Loyal Eagle]

One left edge forward required to fill in with Brbo until Hart Is ready for 80min of week in week out NRL footy.

2026 if Moale gets an early release.

Taukeiaho

Hetherington

Brooks
Navale

Moale

Yes, I have Hetherington on an edge. Ideally, he attacks like a wider-running middle, but defends on the edge.
No, I have no spot in the seventeen for Burbo. (18th man perhaps).
Yes, Jake is the Captain, but he only gets 30 minutes on-field in total. (Two stints at the beginning of each half, with Navale playing 50 minutes at lock).

 

[Blake]

If the bunnies want Fifita asap, he'll be here next year.

I guess it comes down to weather Hannay wants to persist with Fifita at Titans

 

[Rocky]

I haven't seen much of Moale but it seems everyone on here is excited which is great.

Does anyone have any insight as to why are the bunnies letting him go if he is so promising? I understand that it is probably to get Fifita- but why specifically is Moale the man that has fallen out of their tree?

 

[KNUCKLES]

Just need a backrower for next year now. Would love simi from the raiders but doubt that would be a possibility.

He is off contract. Probably easier than moving someone on under contract

Harrison Hassett who the Riff launched, young and cheap

Just happy the club might have found a Penn that works. And hes not ready for the retirement home just yet. Is he any better than any of our current big middles, probably not.

I'd have to view some video to remind me but from memory, his build is very well suited to modern prop. Not tall, but very powerfully built especially through hips, built low to the ground and has leg speed so can certainly bend the line.

I think he came into NRL at a very young age and could handle it because of his solid build.

I'm a bit surprised Souths letting him go, someone will have a theory no doubt!

 

[KNUCKLES]

Ata mariota would be a good get as well 🤪

 

[ManlyTragic]

Well I’m confused! I read on here that we are a Sh1t club with a sh1t coach and no one would want to sign with us!
Isn’t that the reason people on here gave for DCE leaving?

 

[KNUCKLES]

Harrison Hassett who the Riff launched, young and cheap

Is he any good though? Or is he another Corey Waddell

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

Ata mariota would be a good get as well 🤪

Zero chance he is seen as the new Josh Papalii by raiders (and probably is)

Actually has similarities to Moale, but Moale is a year younger

 

[Phobia]

Great signing! Gives us a lot of flexibility for the future. A young prop who already has 70 games to his name, fantastic potential.

The way I see it, he's here to replace Taukeiaho, who will likely retire at the end of next year.

One of the young guys will have to replace Jake full time from 2027 or 2028.
