[Blowfly]

Where has the Dylan Lucas talk come from? I’d love it to happen but have seen or heard nothing on it.

Not much in it. A rumour on Twitter and then some chatter on this forum

Ray Vaega signed with the bears .

Not a bad move for him. A big year with them and maybe he nabs a top 30 stop with the Bears in 2027

For who?

Walsh ,Willett,Hoppa ,Wilson ,Koula ,Faulalo ,Schoupp.
The freeing up of cap space would be beneficial.

We already have those players signed up?
So get rid of our better players & replace them with average players or hold onto our injury prone players coz of their reputation. OK makes sense! That way we can all whinge & moan more when we lose even more games & get closer to the dreaded spoon!

Anyone heard anything about TKO?
I hope we retain him, surely there's some negotiations going on, probably haggling over $ and length of deal
(Also heard nil about Lodge but not so fussed about that)
Best case ... we manage an early release for Moale and have enough left to sign TKO
(and say "Thanks, Bye!" to Lodge)
