My positives from the game:
2nd half spirit was impressive, under all of that adversity and missing key leaders. Could've packed it in.
Ezra Mam is a confidence player. His 2nd half was very good and should set him up for the rest of the season
Cobbo is going to become one of the game's elites...
For all of those saying we have no chance...do you remember round 1 last year and the fact that we were missing Walsh?
Although the losses are huge, this team is better positioned and more resilient to be able to cope.
Only have to look at the Storm. Were without two of their best, Munster and...
Is our side, minus Reynolds and Haas (assuming he can't go) better than the version of the Eels that played Penrith on Friday night?
I would say they're on par...So don't agree with the disrespect amongst the general public that the Panthers will wipe us. Don't forget Fisher-Harris is going to...
For all the frustrating moments and dumb errors, you can't deny this side is box office. Haven't seen an attacking force like this in years.
If we can learn to be better composed, patient and build pressure consistently then this side could absolutely be anything....
Season starts tonight.
We do all the fundamentals and roll through the front door we will win.
Just don't want the boys looking ahead to a grand final rematch next week and get complacent!
Roosters were better prepared than us and probably played as well as they could've hoped for. They would've beaten most sides yesterday.
With all that in mind and Brisbane looking disjointed with the ball and having a shuffled middle forward rotation, the fact we were still in the game until...
I also haven't forgotten our need for a genuine fullback either. Interesting to see how it plays out at Parra with Gutherson. I'd definitely put him ahead of Manu and surely we'd have the $1M available in 2023...
With all this talk about Knights trying to offer Ponga an extension, I really feel we need to go chips in for him. As others have said there is no elite talent available at the moment and if it means waiting another year until 2023 then it is what it is.
He would be a marketing dream and he has...
I'd be looking at making a double play for Shane Flanagan and John Morris, if financial viable. As a pair they have leadership, tactical nous, understanding of squad management, with the former winning a premiership. Our coaching staff have none of the above and excel at playing musical chairs...
Sadly, Kev is trying to pick a team to avoid the wooden spoon, rather than attempt to implement a system and a philosophy and build toward that. This is evidenced by the merry-go-round lineups each week and no visible structure or game plan.
The Bulldogs may be worse than us on the ladder now...
I would be making a push to get Brenko Lee at the club now.
He will be in reserve grade for the rest of the season at the Storm and he will provide an instant improvement in a position we have struggled with in 2021 and have constantly chopped & changed.
Other clubs have done it, so why can't we?
I was one of those who wanted to see Isaako completely dominate in the ISC this week & earn his spot back after a shocking game against the Dragons. What I watched was completely uninspiring and he was average at best. His confidence looks absolutely shot.
Niu should be given another run at the...
It typifies the attitude of the club over the past few years when we let Walsh go because we baulked at 400k a season....BUT we are going to attempt to sign Hynes for probably 100k more than that.
Nice work gents 👍
To all the people saying this "confirms Staggs will play 6"...I'm not so sure about that. I think the club are considering Isaako back to wing and playing Farnworth in at #1.
Regardless this signing is all part of building the club back up and we need a mix of reliable, hard working no-frills...
It's finally official! Mark the calender ladies and gentlemen, this is the day the tide begins to turn.
Although just one signing... Big D Donaghy has already done more in 2 weeks than the previous administration in 2 years!
Reynolds will bring not only experience, but tremendous game...
I am still amazed we offered him a 3 year deal. There is 0 chance we can offer him to another club for next season. It's either England or bricklaying for young Crofty...
