Probably being manipulated by the Roosters or Storm for them to poach Fifita.

Manly are definitely capable of winning the premiership this year IMO. Like us, they have a gun forward pack, only more experienced and more consistent, and then they also have DCE and Turbo to go with it. I feel like I don't hate them as much as the Roosters or the Storm these days either. Yuck.

I wonder if he stayed at fullback, would we have brought KHunt in as a 5/8th?

His game was great, like one of those Japanese great monsters. CHOKEZILLA vs Mothra

If Boyd is gonna be the other half, I'd prefer SOS too, just based on what I've seen so far. Boyd pretty much plays like an extra fullback as a half, so having him on one side, Milf on the other and SOS more in the middle, like he's shown in his 2 previous games. That said, I have no idea how...

It still matters a bit - even assuming no more draws for us, Warriors are on the same amount of competition points, but their P/D is better.

Last time I was cheering for the Knights, this time I'll be....cheering for the Poosters. Yuck!

I remember reading about this like 10 years ago, shortly after he retired.

I think Boyd just enjoys trolling everyone. The whole fullback career finishing article felt like some incredible bait.

From what I've seen of them so far, Carrigan seems to have better leg drive. Seems a bit busier too, but thats probably because he doesn't have to pace himself as much. Arrow's defence seems a bit better so far, and there's the handy offload and what seems like faster ptb speed, though that...

Yep, and if he wants to ball play a bit, he can always occasionally drift one in (pushing the 2nd rower one out)

Would have been better for the Broncs if the Dragons won 😝

If Holmes comes back, I think we can try him in the centres. If not him, then I guess we gotta go with Gagai. We just can't go with Mbye and Chambers again.

The only reason to sign a good half would be if we wanted to try to win a premiership sooner. Dearden/SOS/Paix are too inexperienced, and I can't see Boyd being anything above mediocre there.

I can definitely imagine Roosters "finding" something illegal in his locker.
