Big Ash Taylor "running" around for Oakey in Toowoomba league.

(Medically retired 🤔)

Jesus. I thought it was Andrew Fifita. Wasn’t he on a million a year at the titans?

Yeah, he could buy all of Oakey 10x over now🤭

What is everyone's thoughts on tipping the Panthers moving forward,I've death rode them in my tips nearly every week saying "they'll be back this week" but as of the weekend I'm confident the wheels are finally coming off

Well I just know that as soon as I stop tipping Penrith they’ll start winning

I wouldn’t be tipping them next week…….think the Donkeys are going to be bang up for consigning their season, small act of redemption for 23, perfect moment, not that I think that’s what drives them, they will be to good at home, I’d be shocked if Penrith get up.

this seemed too ... phoned in to put in the rumours' thread so...

Ryan Papenhuyzen is reportedly the 'prime target' of the new NRL team in Perth, and he could become the game's first $2 million player if he makes the switch from the Melbourne Storm.

Jesus, $2m. They would have to be playing him in a couple of positions.

He would also be valued because of his fan appeal. He is very popular and has the "glamour" look that sells merchandise. Compare him with, say, Payne Hass who is the outstanding NRL forward yet wouldn't have the same off-field appeal.

I was thinking more in terms of the salary cap.

Only usually plays half a season each year (like someone else we know) so $2m seems far fetched for on-field value.
